Higher baseline resting metabolic rate is associated with 1-year frailty decline among older adults residing in an urban area
Abstract Background Dysregulated energy metabolism is one hypothesized mechanism underlying frailty. Resting energy expenditure, as reflected by resting metabolic rate (RMR), makes up the largest component of total energy expenditure. Prior work relating RMR to frailty has largely been done in cross...
