Characteristics of the low-energy reporters in a longitudinal national dietary survey [PDF]
The aim of the present study was to establish whether the characteristics of members of a large national birth cohort study who submitted diet diaries with implausibly low-energy intake differed from those whose recorded energy intake was more plausible.

Background: Hypermetabolism, defined as an increase in measured resting energy expenditure (mREE) relative to predicted REE (pREE), is recognised as an important feature of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

Movement patterns and athletic performance of leopards in the Okavango Delta [PDF]
Although leopards are the most widespread of all the big cats and are known for their adaptability, they are elusive and little is known in detail about their movement and hunting energetics.

Testing the activitystat hypothesis: a randomised controlled trial
Background It has been hypothesised that an ‘activitystat’ may biologically regulate energy expenditure or physical activity levels, thereby limiting the effectiveness of physical activity interventions.

Mechanisms promoting higher growth rate in arctic than in temperate shorebirds [PDF]
We compared prefledging growth, energy expenditure, and time budgets in the arctic-breeding red knot (Calidris canutus) to those in temperate shorebirds, to investigate how arctic chicks achieve a high growth rate despite energetic difficulties ...

Predicting Equations and Resting Energy Expenditure Changes in Overweight Adults
The aim of the study is to show the differences between the measured and estimated values of resting energy expenditure and any changes occurring after the 6-month weight loss intervention program.

Validating accelerometry estimates of energy expenditure across behaviours using heart rate data in a free-living seabird [PDF]
Two main techniques have dominated the field of ecological energetics, the heart-rate and doubly labelled water methods. Although well established, they are not without their weaknesses, namely expense, intrusiveness and lack of temporal resolution.

Bioactivity in Whey Proteins Influencing Energy Balance [PDF]
Peer-reviewedObesity develops due to energy (food) intake exceeding energy expenditure. Nutrients that reduce the positive energy balance are thus being considered as therapies to combat obesity.
