Determinants of resting energy expenditure in young children

The Journal of Pediatrics, 1994
Resting energy expenditure (REE) in adults is influenced by fat-free mass (FFM) and fat mass (FM), and is significantly higher in men than in women. There are limited data, however, on the physiologic determinants of REE in children. We therefore measured REE in 113 prepubertal children (39 white girls, 41 white boys, 21 Mohawk girls, and 12 Mohawk ...

Resting Energy Expenditure in Patients with Alcoholic Hepatitis

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, 1989
Patients with alcoholic hepatitis are typically malnourished. A hypermetabolic state would explain, at least in part, the muscle wasting observed in these patients. However, data on hypermetabolism in liver disease are limited and conflicting. In this study, we evaluated measured energy expenditure (MEE) vs predicted energy expenditure (PEE), and MEE ...

Resting energy expenditure in chronic hepatitis C

Journal of Hepatology, 2000
Hypermetabolism is considered to be of clinical interest in liver disease and in several chronic viral infections. Whether resting energy expenditure (REE) increases during chronic hepatitis C is not known. Our aims were: (a) to determine the metabolic state of patients with chronic hepatitis C, and (b) to evaluate the effects of interferon therapy on ...

Measurement of resting energy expenditure in a clinical setting

Clinical Nutrition, 1990
In this study indirect calorimetry for the measurement of a patient's resting energy expenditure (REE) was assessed in clinical practice. REE measured early in the morning after an overnight fast was highly reproducible. REE measured in the afternoon, when patients had consumed their meals, was 15% higher than REE measured in the morning.

Increased resting energy expenditure in cystic fibrosis

Journal of Applied Physiology, 1988
To explore the hypothesis that there is an increased metabolic rate in cystic fibrosis, resting energy expenditure was measured by indirect calorimetry in 23 subjects with cystic fibrosis in a stable clinical state and in 42 normal control subjects.

Resting energy expenditure in lung and colon cancer

Metabolism, 1988
Elevated resting energy expenditure (REE) is a possible mechanism of cancer cachexia. We measured REE by whole-body direct calorimetry in patients with colon and non-small cell lung cancer and compared the results with REE in groups of healthy subjects and in patients with anorexia nervosa, with nonmalignant gastrointestinal (GI) disease, with ...

Resting energy expenditure in disorders of propionate metabolism

The Journal of Pediatrics, 2000
During intercurrent illness children with methylmalonic acidemia were found to have increased resting energy expenditure (REE). We measured REE in children with disorders of propionate metabolism (methylmalonic and propionic acidemia) when they were well and compared the values with those predicted by the Schofield equation.Prospective study in ...

Resting energy expenditure in chronic cardiac failure

Clinical Science, 1991
1. Resting energy expenditure has previously been shown to be elevated in the acute phase of heart failure, but the situation in the compensated state of chronic cardiac failure is unclear. Resting energy expenditure was assessed in 14 patients with stable chronic cardiac failure and 14 matched control subjects by using indirect calorimetry.

[Energy expenditure at rest and obesity].

Sbornik lekarsky, 1999
Adult human body has to have, because of every day fluctuating energy intake and energy needs, very precious adaptive mechanisms for maintenance of heat homeostasis in the body and nearly stable body weight and body composition, which are optimal for life and reproduction.

Resting Energy Expenditure in Infants with Cystic Fibrosis

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, 1994
SummaryTo evaluate the contribution of energy expenditure to the energy imbalance seen in cystic fibrosis patients, resting energy expenditure was measured using open‐circuit indirect calorimetry in eight infants with cystic fibrosis, aged 2–7 months (mean, 4), without overt lung disease and in 10 healthy age‐matched controls.
