Physical Activity (PAA) can be accurately measured when the energy cost (C) of that form of locomotion is known. C depends on the speed and the mode of locomotion. C of a given form of locomotion, and at a given speed, depends also on all those factors that can further affect W or η.

Leptin and energy expenditure [PDF]
A fundamental advance in our understanding of endocrine control of energy balance and body weight came with the discovery of the adipocyte-derived hormone leptin. The leptin pathway appeared to be the long-sought peripheral signal pathway from the adipose tissue to the brain involved in the regulation of feeding and energy balance.Initially, leptin was

Aerobic capacity, activity levels and daily energy expenditure in male and female adolescents of the kenyan nandi sub-group [PDF]
The relative importance of genetic and socio-cultural influences contributing to the success of east Africans in endurance athletics remains unknown in part because the pre-training phenotype of this population remains incompletely assessed.

Assessment of physical activity and energy expenditure: an overview of objective measures
The ability to assess energy expenditure and estimate physical activity in free-living individuals is extremely important in the global context of non-communicable diseases including malnutrition, overnutrition (obesity) and diabetes.

A pyrexic effect of FGF21 independent of energy expenditure and UCP1
Objective: Administration of FGF21 to mice reduces body weight and increases body temperature. The increase in body temperature is generally interpreted as hyperthermia, i.e.
