Underestimation of resting metabolic rate using equations compared to indirect calorimetry in normal-weight subjects: Consideration of resting metabolic rate as a function of body composition

Summary: Background & aims: Resting metabolic rate (RMR) can either be estimated using specific equations or measured with indirect calorimetry (iCal). The calculation formulas usually exclude body composition. In addition to age, height, weight, sex and disease, fat-free mass (FFM) and fat...
