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.

PLoS ONE, 2013 Thyroid hormones (TH) are known to stimulate in vitro oxygen consumption of tissues in mammals and birds. Hence, in many laboratory studies a positive relationship between TH concentrations and basal metabolic rate (BMR) has been demonstrated whereas ...

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 ...

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).

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 ...

Predictive equation for basal metabolic rate of young Indian soldiers
Asian Journal of Medical Sciences, 2016 Background: Currently, no specific predictive equation for BMR has been developed for the Indian armed forces whose BMR is expected to be higher compared to that of the general population because a greater proportion of their body weight is typically ...

Metabolism and thermoregulation in the tree shrew, Tupaia belangeri [PDF]
Journal of Stress Physiology & Biochemistry, 2012 Maximum metabolic rate is a physiological limitation that is an important for animals' survival, reproduction and geographic. Basal metabolic rate (BMR), nonshivering thermogenesis (NST), and maximum metabolic rate (MMR) were measured was in a small ...
