Resting Metabolic Requirements of Men and Women

Mayo Clinic Proceedings, 1988
The resting metabolic rates (RMRs) of 44 lean and obese women, 8 of whom were trained athletes, and of 60 lean and obese men were measured by indirect calorimetry. These healthy humans, ranging from 18 to 82 years old and from 43 to 171 kg in weight, were mentally and physically active.

Resting energy metabolism and anticancer treatments

Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition & Metabolic Care, 2018
Cachexia is a multifactorial syndrome associated with morbidity and mortality in cancer patients and represents a major challenge in cancer management. Elevated energy expenditure is supposed to contribute to cachexia. The current article presents the recent findings on the resting energy expenditure (REE) in cancer and the clinical implications for ...

Lactate metabolism in resting and exercising dogs

Journal of Applied Physiology, 1976
The effect of treadmill run on the turnover rates of glucose ([2-3H]glucose) and lactate ([U-14C]lactate), on the rates of oxidation (ROX) of lactate, and its conversion to glucose (L LEADS TO G) were measured with the primed constant-infusion technique.

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 "

The resting metabolism of dodder seeds

Phytochemistry, 1976
Abstract Extracts of mature seeds of Cuscuta reflexa were examined for any deficiency in key enzymes. The activities of malate dehydrogenase, β-amylase and fructose 1,6-diphosphate aldolase exceeded 5.0 μmol substrate/min/g, while those of starch phosphorylase, α-amylase, acid phosphatase, phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (decarboxylating), aspartate

A Comparison of Cosmed Metabolic Systems for the Determination of Resting Metabolic Rate

Research in Sports Medicine, 2013
This study determined the reliability of measuring resting metabolic rate (RMR) with COSMED's FitMate™ metabolic system using a canopy dilution set-up compared with a previously validated COSMED QUARK CPET research-based system in 30 healthy adults (age: 28.4 ± 7.0 yrs, weight: 79.9 ± 20.2 kg, percent body fat: 22.5 ± 8.6%).

Tamarind, Metabolism, and Rest

The chapter examines representations of different regimes of racialized labor through an analytic of metabolism. It presents a reading of Titus Kaphar's A Pillow for Fragile Fictions (2016), a sculpture which deconstructs the myth of George Washington by positioning his bust on its side and filling it with rum, tamarind, molasses, and lime. The chapter

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 ...

Resting metabolic rate and the influence of the pretesting environment

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1992
We examined the effect of pretesting environment on measurement of resting metabolic rate (RMR). RMR was measured in 18 older (66.1 +/- 1.4 y) individuals after an overnight stay in the Clinical Research Center (ie, inpatient) and after subjects transported themselves to the laboratory (ie, outpatient). Similar measurements were also performed after an

Prediction of the resting metabolic rate in obese patients

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1983
Resting metabolic rate (RMR) was measured in 154 women and 48 men before the beginning of a weight reduction program. In both sexes there were significant univariate correlations between RMR and fat-free mass, body fat, weight, fat cell weight, and fat cell number (from total body water).
