Detection of thermogenesis in rodents in response to anti-obesity drugs and genetic modification [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2013 Many compounds and genetic manipulations are claimed to confer resistance to obesity in rodents by raising energy expenditure. Examples taken from recent and older literature, demonstrate that such claims are often based on measurements of energy ...

Estimating energy expenditure from heart rate in older adults: a case for calibration.
PLoS ONE, 2014 BackgroundAccurate measurement of free-living energy expenditure is vital to understanding changes in energy metabolism with aging. The efficacy of heart rate as a surrogate for energy expenditure is rooted in the assumption of a linear function between ...

Acutely decreased thermoregulatory energy expenditure or decreased activity energy expenditure both acutely reduce food intake in mice. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Despite the suggestion that reduced energy expenditure may be a key contributor to the obesity pandemic, few studies have tested whether acutely reduced energy expenditure is associated with a compensatory reduction in food intake.

Body weight control and energy expenditure
Clinical Nutrition Experimental, 2018 Summary: Body composition has great importance in the value of energy expenditure. Reduced energy expenditure plays an important role in the development of obesity by decreasing resting energy expenditure, energy activity, diet-induced thermogenesis, or ...
