Predictive Equations Overestimate Resting Metabolic Rate in Young Chilean Women with Excess Body Fat [PDF]
Underestimating/overestimating resting metabolic rate (RMR) affects energy prescription. The objective was to compare RMR by indirect calorimetry (RMR IC) and RMR estimated by predictive equations in women with excess body fat.

High-standard predictive equations for estimating body composition using bioelectrical impedance analysis: a systematic review [PDF]
The appropriate use of predictive equations in estimating body composition through bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) depends on the device used and the subject’s age, geographical ancestry, healthy status, physical activity level and sex.

Glomerular filtration rate correlation and agreement between common predictive equations and standard 24-hour urinary creatinine clearance in medical critically ill patients [PDF]
Background Determining kidney function in critically ill patients is paramount for the dose adjustment of several medications. When assessing kidney function, the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is generally estimated either by calculating urine ...

Prediction of resting energy expenditure in Italian older adults with severe obesity
BackgroundIn the last decade a large number of studies proposed and/or validated equations to estimate the Resting Energy Expenditure (REE) in adults and/or older adults, however, no equation currently available showed good accuracy for older adults with
