Fluctuating selection on basal metabolic rate [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2016 AbstractBMR (Basal metabolic rate) is an important trait in animal life history as it represents a significant part of animal energy budgets. BMR has also been shown to be positively related to sustainable work rate and maximal thermoregulatory capacity.

Blood biomarkers for estimating energy intake in Japanese male collegiate athletes: a pilot study
BMC Sports Science, Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2023 Background Athletes should be informed of their required energy intake in preparation for sports competitions. However, the environment in which dietary surveys can be conducted to determine the required energy intake for sports competitions is limited ...

Resource allocation, hyperphagia and compensatory growth [PDF]
, 2004 Organisms often shown enhanced growth during recovery from starvation, and can even overtake continuously fed conspecifics (overcompensation). In an earlier paper (Ecology 84, 2777-2787), we studied the relative role played by hyperphagia and resource ...

The metabolic cost of physical activity in mice using a physiology-based model of energy expenditure
Molecular Metabolism, 2023 Objective: Physical activity is a major component of total energy expenditure (TEE) that exhibits extreme variability in mice. Our objective was to construct a general, physiology-based model of TEE to accurately quantify the energy cost of physical ...

Basal metabolic rate in bronchial asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients
Egyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis, 2013 Patients with COPD and bronchial asthma have been reported to have an increase in the energy cost of breathing which is reflected by changes in their basal metabolic rates (BMR).
