Resting Metabolic Rate of Elderly Vietnamese

Annals of Nutrition and Metabolism, 2007
<i>Background/Aims:</i> To evaluate the FAO/WHO/UNU equations for predicting resting metabolic rate (RMR) in elderly Vietnamese. <i>Methods:</i> A cross-sectional study involving healthy and elderly subjects was carried out at the Basic Nutrition Department, National Institute of Nutrition, Vietnam.

??1-adrenoreceptors regulate resting metabolic rate

Medicine &amp Science in Sports &amp Exercise, 1997
This was a randomized, cross-over experiment designed to determine which beta-adrenergic receptors, beta 1, beta 2, or both, regulate metabolic rate in humans. All subjects (3 women, 4 men) were administered a 7-d therapeutic dose of a selective beta 1-antagonist (atenolol 50 mg BID), a combined beta 1, beta 2-antagonist (propranolol 80 mg BID), and a ...

Resting metabolic rate in chronic renal failure

Journal of Renal Nutrition, 2001
A decrease in resting metabolic rate (RMR) in patients with chronic renal failure was assumed to occur because of the decreasing oxygen consumption of the kidneys, which in healthy subjects, accounts for 7.2% of RMR. Contrary to this assumption, RMR per body weight in end-stage renal disease was increased.To test the impact of chronic renal failure on ...

Allometry of resting metabolic rate in cockroaches

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Physiology, 1989
1. Resting VO2 at 22.7 degrees C was 0.217 +/- 0.007 ml O2/g/hr in Nauphoeta cinerea of 0.51 +/- 0.008 g body mass. 2. Whole animal resting metabolic rate for 11 cockroach species scaled allometrically: VO2 = 0.261 M0.776. 3. Allometry of resting VO2 among cockroach species is similar to that in vertebrates, and is consistent with models based on both "

Resting metabolic rate in obesity

Postgraduate Medical Journal
Abstract The prevalence of obesity has continued to rise, and obesity and its attendant metabolic disorders are major global health threat factors. Among the current interventions for obesity, none have demonstrated sustained efficacy in achieving long-term outcomes.

Resting Metabolic Rate after Endurance Exercise Training

Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 2009
1) To examine the effect of a 12-wk endurance exercise training program on RMR and 2) to provide insight into the mechanisms responsible for alterations in RMR that may occur after exercise training.Male participants (19-32 yr) in an exercise group (EX; n = 9) performed jogging and/or running 3-4 d x wk(-1), 25-40 min per session, at 60%-80% VO2max ...

Bulimia nervosa and resting metabolic rate

International Journal of Eating Disorders, 1989
This study investigated the relationship between bulimia nervosa and resting metabolic rate. It was hypothesized that severe levels of bulimia, characterized by purging through self-induced vomiting as well as restrictive eating patterns, would be associated with a decrease in the rate of energy utilization and thus a lower resting metabolic rate ...

Resting metabolic rate in homozygous sickle cell disease

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1993
The resting metabolic rate in 20 patients with homozygous sickle cell (SS) disease was 19% higher than in 20 age- and sex-matched control subjects with a normal hemoglobin genotype (AA). The difference was not accounted for by differences in lean body mass.

Weight loss and change in resting metabolic rate

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1990
The relation between change in resting metabolic rate (RMR) and change in fat-free mass (FFM) after weight loss is not well understood and is often inappropriately expressed in kilocalories per unit of FFM. We measured RMR and FFM in 35 obese patients enrolled in a conservative weight-loss program.
