A Low Resting Metabolic Rate Is Associated With Metabolic Syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Nutrition, 2007
The metabolic syndrome is associated with central accumulation of fat. Previous studies showed that some obese subjects are characterized by a sparing energy metabolism. The aim of this study was to investigate whether obese subjects with metabolic syndrome have a lower resting metabolic rate than obese subjects without metabolic syndrome.Forty obese ...

Familial Dependence of the Resting Metabolic Rate

New England Journal of Medicine, 1986
Human obesity is known to be a familial disorder. We studied 130 nondiabetic adult southwestern American Indians (74 men and 56 women) from 54 families to determine whether the resting metabolic rate, as measured by indirect calorimetry, is a familial trait that is independent of individual differences in fat-free mass (estimated mass of metabolically ...

Resting Metabolic Rate in Monozygotic and Dizygotic Twins [PDF]

open access: yesActa Geneticae Medicae Et Gemellologiae, 1985
AbstractIn order to study the influence of heredity on resting metabolic rate (RMR), 20 monozygotic and 19 dizygotic male twin pairs aged 20.6 (SD 2.9) and 21.4 (SD 3.1) years, gave their consent to participate in the experiment. Fat free weight (FFW) was estimated from underwater weighing. RMR was measured by indirect calorimetry using an open circuit

Resting Metabolic Rate: Measurement Reliability

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, 1987
Resting metabolic rate (RMR) usually is measured by indirect calorimetry for a brief interval, and the results are then extrapolated to 24‐hr resting energy production. The aim of the current study was to examine the validity of this approach by measuring the within‐ and between‐day variability in RMR.
