Association of Basal Metabolic Rate and Nutrients Oxidation with Cardiometabolic Risk Factors and Insulin Sensitivity in Sedentary Middle-Aged Adults. Nutrients 2020; 12:nu12041186.

Abstract
This cross-sectional study aimed to examine the association of basal metabolic rate (BMR) and basal fat and carbohydrate oxidation (BFox and BCHox, respectively) with cardiometabolic risk factors and insulin sensitivity in sedentary middle-aged adults. A total of 71 healthy sedentary adults (37 women) aged 40–65 years participated in the current study. Data were collected during the baseline assessments of the FIT-AGEING randomized controlled trial. BMR was measured via indirect calorimetry, and BFox and BCHox estimated by stoichiometric equations. Blood pressure, glucose, insulin, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and triglycerides plasma levels were selected as cardiometabolic risk factors and assessed following standard procedures. We observed positive associations of BMR with plasma insulin and the homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance index (HOMA; all p < 0.05) which were attenuated or disappeared after controlling by sex, age, and/or lean mass. There were positive associations between BFox and the quantitative insulin sensitivity check index (QUICKI; p < 0.015), while negative associations were noted between BFox and plasma insulin and HOMA (p < 0.015). There was a significant negative association between BCHox with QUICKI (p < 0.01), whereas significant positive relationships were obtained when BCHox was associated with plasma insulin and HOMA (p < 0.01). These associations persisted in almost all cases when controlling by sex, age and/or lean mass. No further relationships were found when BMR, BFox, and BCHox were associated with other cardiometabolic risk factors. In conclusion, our study findings support that greater BFox and lower BCHox are related to improved insulin sensitivity, whereas BMR seems to be not associated with neither cardiometabolic risk nor insulin sensitivity in sedentary middle-aged adults. Further intervention studies are necessary to well-understand the physiological mechanism implied in this relationship.

Abstract
An experiment was carried out to determine energy values of high-protein sunflower meal (HP-SFM) and to compare the energy values of HP-SFM determined using either a phosphorus (P)-deficient basal diet or a P-adequate basal diet. Twenty-four growing barrows were randomly assigned to 1 of 4 dietary treatments with 6 replicates per treatment. Four experimental diets including 2 basal diets containing 2 levels of standardized total tract digestible P (i.e., P-deficient and P-adequate) and the other 2 diets containing 30% HP-SFM with each basal diet (i.e., HP-SFM 1 diet and HP-SFM 2 diet) were formulated to determine the energy values of HP-SFM and to compare energy values of HP-SFM determined by the difference method using 2 basal diets. Pigs were fed diets for 15 d including 10 d for adaptation and 5 d for total collections. Pigs were then moved to indirect calorimetry chambers to determine total heat production (THP) and fasting heat production (FHP). A reduced (P < 0.01) amount of nitrogen was retained in pigs fed the P-deficient basal diet compared with those fed the other diets. The THP of pigs fed the HP-SFM 1 and 2 diets was greater (P < 0.01) than those fed the P-deficient basal diet with the intermediate value for pigs fed the P-adequate basal diet. The retained energy (RE) as protein of pigs fed the P-deficient basal diet was less (P < 0.01) but RE as lipid was greater (P < 0.01) than those fed the P-adequate basal, or HP-SFM 1 and 2 diets. However, there was no difference in FHP of pigs among the dietary treatments. The NE of HP-SFM determined using the P-deficient basal diet was 2,062 kcal/kg, as-fed basis, whereas the value determined using the P-adequate basal diet was 2,151 kcal/kg. Although no differences were observed in energy values, the amount of P in basal diet might affect energy balance by modifying N utilization, thus, a diet containing adequate amount of P is a more suitable basal diet when the difference method is used for calculation of NE in a feed ingredient.

Abstract
Human and mouse thermal physiology differ due to dissimilar body sizes. Unexpectedly, in mice we found no ambient temperature zone where both metabolic rate and body temperature were constant. Body temperature began increasing once cold-induced thermogenesis was no longer required. This result reproduced in male, female, C57BL/6J, 129, chow-fed, diet-induced obese, and ob/ob mice as well as Trpv1-/-;Trpm8-/-;Trpa1-/- mice lacking thermal sensory channels. During the resting-light phase, the energy expenditure minimum spanned ∼4°C of ambient temperature, whereas in the active-dark phase it approximated a point. We propose the concept of a thermoneutral point (TNP), a discrete ambient temperature below which energy expenditure increases and above which body temperature increases. Humans do not have a TNP. As studied, the mouse TNP is ∼29°C in light phase and ∼33°C in dark phase. These observations inform how thermoneutrality is defined and how mice are used to model human energy physiology and drug development.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nutrition therapy is recognized as one of the most significant treatment aspects for burn patients. However, data were limited regarding the actual nutrition practices in patients with severe burn injury. This study aims to explore the measured energy expenditure (MEE) changes in severe burn patients and to evaluate the precision of commonly used predictive formulas for estimating predictive energy expenditure (PEE) in burn patients. METHODS A prospective multicenter trial was conducted in the intensive care units in the hospitals enrolling the severely burned patients. Data on MEE and PEE were collected and analyzed. RESULTS Forty-three patients were enrolled from 3 hospitals. All the patients had severe burns. MEE was measured by metabolic cart, and the MEE on the seventh day after severe burns was as high as 65 kcal/kg, which was 267% of the basal metabolic rate. The presence of hypermetabolism was sustained throughout the 21-day afterburn and decreased gradually to 34 kcal/kg thereafter until 4 weeks after injury. Wound percentage after skin-grafting therapy, time course of burn injury, the existence of severe sepsis, and blood infection were significantly associated with higher MEE. Compared with PEE and MEE, Toronto formula could estimate patients' energy requirements with more accuracy; Curreri and Pennisi formula both significantly overestimated the patient's energy expenditure, whereas underestimation occurred with the Harris-Benedict formula. CONCLUSIONS Severe burn patients were hypermetabolic at the early stage and sustained this status over a long time. The Toronto formula was the unbiased method to predict energy expenditure.

Abstract
Background: Weight homeostasis is complex in Parkinson's disease (PD) and body weight changes substantially throughout the course of the disease. We designed a case-control study to (i) investigate whether PD is associated with changes in resting energy expenditure (REE), (ii) to assess how accurately REE could be predicted for individuals with PD utilizing the equations constructed for healthy individuals, and (iii) to eventually construct a new equation.Materials & Methods: Measured REE (mREE) was compared between 122 PD patients and 122 gender and body mass index (BMI)-matched controls. The accuracy of estimated REE by 5 common equations (Harris/Benedict-1919, Roza/Shizgal-1984, Mifflin St. Jeor, WHO/FAO and aggregate formula) was investigated in PD using Bland-Altman analysis and reported as the frequency of accurate predictions (±10%). Concordance correlation coefficients (CCC) were also calculated. Then, we regressed a new REE equation - using gender, age, weight, height and Hoehn-Yahr stage - and validated it in an independent sample (N = 100).Results: No significant difference in mREE was recorded between the whole PD sample and healthy controls. However, mREE was increased in patients with BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2 and Hoehn-Yahr stage ≥ 3. Limited accuracy was present in the available REE equations (accurate prediction [±10%] frequency, <60% for all). For the new equation, the proportion of accurate prediction was 67.0% (overestimation, 24.0%) and CCC was 0.77.Conclusion: PD patients are not commonly characterized by an increase in REE. This is limited to patients suffering from obesity and more severe disease. Common REE equations appear to be inaccurate. The new predictive equation proposed in this study provided better REE estimates.

Abstract
CONTEXT Growing evidence suggests that appropriate levothyroxine (LT4) replacement therapy may not correct the full set of metabolic defects afflicting individuals with hypothyroidism. OBJECTIVE To assess whether obese subjects with primary hypothyroidism are characterized by alterations of the resting energy expenditure (REE). DESIGN Retrospective analysis of a set of data about obese women attending the outpatients service of a single obesity center from January 2013 to July 2019. PATIENTS A total of 649 nondiabetic women with body mass index (BMI) > 30 kg/m2 and thyrotropin (TSH) level 0.4-4.0 mU/L were segregated into 2 groups: patients with primary hypothyroidism taking LT4 therapy (n = 85) and patients with normal thyroid function (n = 564). MAIN OUTCOMES REE and body composition assessed using indirect calorimetry and bioimpedance. RESULTS REE was reduced in women with hypothyroidism in LT4 therapy when compared with controls (28.59 ± 3.26 vs 29.91 ± 3.59 kcal/kg fat-free mass (FFM)/day), including when adjusted for age, BMI, body composition, and level of physical activity (P = 0.008). This metabolic difference was attenuated only when adjustment for homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) was performed. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated that obese hypothyroid women in LT4 therapy, with normal serum TSH level compared with euthyroid controls, are characterized by reduced REE, in line with the hypothesis that standard LT4 replacement therapy may not fully correct metabolic alterations related to hypothyroidism. We are not able to exclude that this feature may be influenced by the modulation of insulin sensitivity at the liver site, induced by LT4 oral administration.

Abstract
Background: Indirect calorimetry (IC) is recommended to guide energy delivery over predictive equations in critical illness due to its precision. However, the impact of using IC to measure energy expenditure on clinical outcomes is uncertain. Objective: To evaluate whether using IC to measure energy expenditure to inform energy delivery reduced hospital mortality and improved other important outcomes compared to using predictive equations in critically ill adults. Methods: A systematic literature review was conducted following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses guideline. Medline, Embase, CINAHL, and the Cochrane Library were searched for studies using IC to guide energy delivery compared to a predictive equation in adult critically ill patients with the primary outcome (hospital mortality) or any of the secondary outcomes reported (including but not limited to hospital and intensive care unit (ICU) length of stay (LOS) and duration mechanical ventilation (MV). Risk of bias within studies was assessed using the Cochrane “Risk of Bias” 1 tool. Random-effect meta-analyses were used when heterogeneity between studies existed (I2 > 50%). Data are reported as median (interquartile range [IQR]), binomial outcomes as odds ratio (OR), 95% confidence interval (CI), and continuous outcomes as mean difference (MD). Results: Of 4060 articles, 4 randomized controlled trials were identified with 396 patients included in analysis. Three studies were considered low risk of bias and 1 as high risk. Two studies reported hospital mortality (n = 130 and 40 participants, respectively). When combined, no association between IC-guided energy delivery and hospital mortality was found (OR = 0.81, 95% CI = [0.25, 2.67], P = 0.73, I2 = 52). No differences were reported with ICU mortality and hospital LOS between groups, but ICU LOS and duration of MV varied across all studies. According to the meta-analysis, no differences were observed in ICU LOS (MD = 1.39, 95% CI = [–5.01, 7.79], P = 0.67, I2 = 81%), although the duration of MV was increased when energy delivery was guided by IC (MD = 2.01, 95% CI = [0.45, 3.57], P = 0.01, I2 = 26%). In all 4 studies, prescribed energy targets were more closely met when energy delivery was informed by IC compared to a predictive equation. Three studies reported the percentage delivered versus the prescribed energy target, with the median (IQR) delta between the IC and predictive equation arms 19% (10%-32%). Conclusion: Limited data exist to assess the impact of using IC to inform energy delivery in comparison to predictive equations on hospital mortality. The association of IC use with other important outcomes, including duration of MV, needs to be further explored before definitive conclusions can be made.

Abstract
There is a general consensus that overconsumption of sugar-sweetened beverages contributes to the prevalence of obesity and related comorbidities such as type 2 diabetes (T2D). Whether a similar relationship exists for no- or low-calorie "diet" drinks is a subject of intensive debate and controversy. Here, we demonstrate that consuming seven sucralose-sweetened beverages with, but not without, a carbohydrate over 10 days decreases insulin sensitivity in healthy human participants, an effect that correlates with reductions in midbrain, insular, and cingulate responses to sweet, but not sour, salty, or savory, taste as assessed with fMRI. Taste perception was unaltered and consuming the carbohydrate alone had no effect. These findings indicate that consumption of sucralose in the presence of a carbohydrate rapidly impairs glucose metabolism and results in longer-term decreases in brain, but not perceptual sensitivity to sweet taste, suggesting dysregulation of gut-brain control of glucose metabolism.

Abstract
Condensed tannins (CT) might improve animal and system-level efficiency due to enhanced protein efficiency and reduced CH4. This study evaluated the impact of quebracho tannin (QT) extract fed at 0%, 1.5%, 3%, and 4.5% of dry matter (DM), within a roughage-based diet on apparent digestibility of DM, organic matter (OM), fibrous fractions, and N retention and energy partitioning of growing steers (236 ± 16 kg BW). A Latin rectangle design with eight animals and four periods was used to determine the whole-animal exchange of CO2, O2, and CH4 as well as the collection of total feces and urine over a 48-h period, using two open-circuit, indirect calorimetry respiration chambers. Following the removal of steers from respiration chambers, rumen inoculum was collected to determine ruminal parameter, including volatile fatty acids (VFA) and ammonia. Animals were fed a 56.5% roughage diet at 1.7% BW (dry matter basis). Dry matter and gross energy intakes were influenced by the level of QT inclusion (P ≤ 0.036). Digestibility of DM, OM, and N was reduced with QT inclusion (P < 0.001), and fiber digestibility was slightly impacted (P > 0.123). QTs altered the N excretion route, average fecal N-to-total N ratio excreted increased 14%, and fecal N-to-urinary N ratio increased 38% (P < 0.001) without altering the retained N. Increased fecal energy with QT provision resulted in reduced dietary digestible energy (DE) concentration (Mcal/kg DM; P = 0.024). There were no differences in urinary energy (P = 0.491), but CH4 energy decreased drastically (P = 0.007) as QT inclusion increased. Total ruminal VFA concentration did not differ across treatments, but VFA concentration increased linearly with QT inclusion (P = 0.049). Metabolizable energy (ME) was not affected by the QT rate, and the conversion efficiency of DE-to-ME did not differ. Heat energy decreased (P = 0.013) with increased QT provision likely due to changes in the DE intake, but there was no difference in retained energy. There were no differences for retained energy or N per CO2 equivalent emission produced (P = 0.774 and 0.962, respectively), but improved efficiency for energy retention occurred for 3% QT. We concluded that QT provided up to 4.5% of dry matter intake (about 3.51% of CT, dry matter basis) does not affect N and energy retention within the current setting. Feeding QT reduced energy losses in the form of CH4 and heat, but the route of energy loss appears to be influenced by the rate of QT inclusion.

Abstract
The method used to select representative gas exchange data from large datasets influences the resting metabolic rate (RMR) returned. This study determines which of three methods yields the lowest RMR (as recommended for use in human energy balance studies), and in which method the greatest variance in RMR is explained by classical determinants of this variable. A total of 107 young and 74 middle-aged adults underwent a 30 min RMR examination using a breath-by-breath metabolic cart. Three gas exchange data selection methods were used: (i) steady state (SSt) for 3, 4, 5, or 10 min, (ii) a pre-defined time interval (TI), i.e., 6–10, 11–15, 16–20, 21–25, 26–30, 6–25, or 6–30 min, and (iii) “filtering”, setting thresholds depending on the mean RMR value obtained. In both cohorts, the RMRs yielded by the SSt and filtering methods were significantly lower (p < 0.021) than those yielded by the TI method. No differences in RMR were seen under the different conditions of the SSt method, or of the filtering method. No differences were seen between the methods in terms of the variance in RMR explained by its classical determinants. In conclusion, the SSt and filtering methods return the lowest RMRs and intra-measurement coefficients of variation when using breath-by-breath metabolic carts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to compare recommendations in the American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition (ASPEN) Guidelines for the Provision and Assessment of Nutrition Support Therapy in the Adult Critically Ill Patient with measured energy expenditure in obese, critically ill adults. METHODS After enrollment, measured energy expenditure was attempted at baseline and twice weekly to extubation or day 14. Data are reported as median [interquartile range]. RESULTS Twenty patients were included. The median baseline and subsequent measured energy expenditures were 2438 [1807-2703] kcal and 2919 [2318-3362] kcal, respectively. Baseline measured energy expenditures were -491 [-788 to -323] kcal lower than subsequent measurements, and week 1 measurements were lower than those of week 2. The median bias between the guideline recommendation of 11-14 kcal/kg of actual body weight and measured expenditure at baseline was -950 [-1254 to -595] kcal/d and -1618 [-1820 to -866] kcal/d at subsequent measurements. CONCLUSION Clinically significant variation was observed between measured expenditure and guideline recommendations at all time points.

Abstract
Fructose consumption has been linked to obesity and increased hepatic de novo lipogenesis (DNL). Excessive caloric intake often confounds the results of fructose studies, and experimental diets are generally low-fat diets, not representative for westernized diets. Here, we compared the effects of dietary fructose with those of dietary glucose, in adult male and female mice on a starch-containing moderate high-fat (HF) diet. After 5 weeks fattening on a HF high-glucose (HF-G) diet, mice were stratified per sex and assigned to one of the three intervention diets for 6 weeks: HF high fructose (HF-F), HF with equimolar glucose and fructose (HF-GF), or HF-G. Bodyweight (BW) and food intake were measured weekly. Indirect calorimetry was performed on week 5; animals were sacrificed in food-deprived state on week 6. Data were analyzed within sex. BW gain was similar among animals on the HF-G, HF-GF, and HF-F diets. Cumulative food intake was slightly lower in HF-F animals (both sexes). However, energy expenditure was not affected, or were circulating insulin and glucose concentrations, and hepatic triglyceride levels at endpoint. Hepatic gene expression analysis showed only minor alterations in hexokinase and glycolysis-related expression in males, and no alterations in sugar transporters, or DNL-related enzymes. In females, no consistent alterations in hepatic or small intestine gene expression were seen. Concluding, partial or complete replacement of dietary glucose with fructose does not increase caloric intake, and does not affect BW, hepatic triglyceride levels, or insulin concentrations in male and female mice on a moderate high-fat diet.

Abstract
Background and Objective Previous studies have identified the role of irisin and vitamin D in energy homeostasis. However, the effect of irisin and vitamin D on energy regulation has not been thoroughly investigated. Therefore, in this study, the effects of a vitamin D-deficient diet and irisin on total energy expenditure (TEE), food intake, and blood metabolites were investigated in rats. Methods Sixteen healthy weaned male albino rats were randomly divided into two groups: a group fed a normal balanced growth diet (group A: n = 8) and a group fed a normocalcemic diet that is vitamin D deficient with limited ultraviolet (UV) light exposure (group B, n = 8). After 6 weeks, the volumes of respiratory gases were measured by open-circuit indirect calorimetry. Serum irisin, 25-OHVD3, calcium, insulin, and glucose levels were measured using ELISA. The respiratory quotient (RQ), energy expenditure, and Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR) were calculated. Results Rats with hypovitaminosis D were hypoirisinemic. Food intake, RQ (to the range of using endogenous fat), and glucose levels reduced significantly, while insulin levels increased. Body weight and TEE were non-significant changed. Additionally, irisin was strongly and positively correlated with body weight under normal conditions (r = 0.905, p < 0.01), and a moderate negative correlation in group B (r = −0.429, p < 0.05). TEE and irisin showed no significant correlation. Conclusion This study demonstrated that the early changes in energy homeostasis and irisin levels during states of hypovitaminosis D are affected by long-term consumption of a vitamin D-deficient diet with limited UV exposure.

Zhong W, Mu LL, Han FF, Luo GL, Zhang XY, Liu KY, Guo XL, Yang HM, Li GY. Estimation of the net energy and protein requirements for maintenance of male arctic foxes (Alopex lagopus) during the growth period1,2. J Anim Sci 2020; 97:4579-4587. [PMID: 31408879 DOI: 10.1093/jas/skz253] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2019] [Accepted: 08/09/2019] [Indexed: 11/14/2022] Open
Abstract
The maintenance requirements of net energy and net protein were assumed to represent the most accurate and important values totally for the animal's utilization. The objective of this experiment was to determine the net energy and net protein requirements for maintenance of growing arctic foxes. The experiments was evaluated using regression models estimated from data collected by means of indirect calorimetry, nitrogen balance trials, and digestion and metabolism experiments. Thirty-six growing arctic foxes (3 487 ± 261.7 g) at the age of 85 days were randomly assigned to four groups with 9 animals in each group. Arctic foxes were fed a complete formula diet at four intake levels (100%, or 80%, 60%, and 40% of feed requirements) from 24 July 2017 to 23 September 2017. Arctic foxes in each treatment were kept individually in respiration chambers after 1-d adaptation at day 2 for a 3-d balance trial and then at day 5 followed by a 3-d fasting period. The metabolizable energy intake (MEI), heat production in the fed state (HP), and retained energy (RE) of arctic foxes significantly decreased (P < 0.01) as the feed intake level decreased. Fasting heat production (FHP) of arctic foxes was not influenced by feed intake level (P > 0.05). The metabolizable energy maintenance requirement (MEm) and net energy maintenance requirement (NEm) estimated from the linear relationship between RE and MEI were 230 and 217 kJ/kg of body weight BW0.75/d, respectively. The MEm and NEm estimated by logarithmic regression of HP on MEI were 225 and 209 kJ/kg BW0.75/d, respectively. The net N maintenance requirement (NNm) and net protein maintenance requirement (NPm) estimated from the linear relationship between retained nitrogen (RN) and daily nitrogen intake (NI) were 179.6 mg/kg BW0.75/d and 1.123 g/kg BW0.75/d, respectively. It is concluded that NEm and NPm values obtained fill the net energy and protein requirements shortage, and provide the basic data for establishing the standard of nutrition demand of breeding arctic foxes in China.

Energy Expenditure in Critically Ill Adult Patients With Acute Brain Injury: Indirect Calorimetry vs. Predictive Equations. Front Neurol 2020; 10:1426. [PMID: 32038469 PMCID: PMC6989531 DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2019.01426] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/20/2019] [Accepted: 12/31/2019] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction: Predictive equations (PE) are used in lieu of indirect calorimetry (IC) due to cost and limited resources; however, these equations may not be as accurate as IC in estimating resting energy expenditure (REE) in critically ill patients, putting them at risk of malnutrition. The purpose of this study is to compare predicted and measured energy expenditure (MEE) in critically ill adults with acute brain injury. Materials and Methods: This was a retrospective review of adult patients admitted to the Neurosciences ICU with acute brain injury between May 1st, 2014 and April 1st, 2016 who had IC performed. The Harris Benedict (HBE), Penn State University, and Mifflin St Jeor (MSJ) PE were used in comparison to IC results. Subgroup analyses stratified patients based on BMI and type of acute brain injury. Results: One hundred and forty-four patients met inclusion criteria. Comparing predicted and MEE found no significant difference (p = 0.1). High degrees of interpatient variability were discovered, with standard deviations ranging from 17 to 29% of each PE. Pearson's correlations indicated weak associations when HBE, Penn State, and MSJ were individually compared to MEE (r = 0.372, 0.409, and 0.372, respectively). A significant difference was found between predicted and MEE in patients with a BMI < 30 kg/m2 (p < 0.01) and in those with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (p < 0.01). Discussion: Due to interpatient variability that exists among REE of critically ill patients with acute brain injury, IC should be used when feasible.

Abstract
The quantification of resting energy expenditure (REE) in patients with obesity is an important measure. We aimed to evaluate the validity of predictive equations in estimating REE compared with indirect calorimetry (IC) in treatment-seeking Arab adults with overweight or obesity. Twenty-three predictive equations were compared with REE values measured by IC (Vmax Encore 229) in 89 adult participants with overweight or obesity (mean age = 40.62 ± 15.96 years and mean body mass index [BMI] = 35.02 ± 4.60 kg/m2) referred to the Department of Nutrition and Dietetics of Beirut Arab University (Lebanon). The accuracy of the predictive equations was evaluated on the basis of whether the percentage prediction was within 10% of the measured REE, and the mean difference between predicted and measured values (bias). The Bland-Altman method was used to assess the agreement between the predicted and measured values. The equations that demonstrated the closest agreement with IC were the De La Cruz equation in males (accurate predictions: 68.2%; bias: -19.52 kcal/day) and the Mifflin equation in females (accurate prediction: 61.2%; bias: -36.43 kcal/day). In conclusion, we suggest that these two equations produce the least biased estimations for REE in this population.

Abstract
CONTEXT Insulin resistance and diabetes may influence separately or in combination whole body energy metabolism. OBJECTIVE To assess the impact of insulin resistance and/or overt type 2 diabetes on resting energy expenditure (REE) in class 3 obese individuals. DESIGN AND SETTING Retrospective, cross-sectional analysis of a set of data about individuals attending the outpatients service of a single center of bariatric surgery between January 2015 and December 2017. PATIENTS We screened 382 patients in which abnormal thyroid function was excluded, and segregated them in three groups of subjects: patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM; n=70), non-diabetic insulin-resistant patients with HOMA-IR ≥ 3 (n=236), non-diabetic insulin-sensitive patients with HOMA-IR < 3 (n=75). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE Resting energy expenditure (REE), body composition and insulin resistance assessed using indirect calorimetry, bioimpedance and HOMA-IR. RESULTS Non-diabetic insulin-sensitive patients resulted to be younger, with lower BMI and higher prevalence of female subjects; meanwhile, non-diabetic but insulin-resistant patients and T2DM patients were not different in terms of anthropometric parameters. REE was higher in T2DM than in non-diabetic insulin-resistant and insulin-sensitive individuals when expressed as percent of the predicted REE (based on Harris Benedict equation) (p<0.0001) or when adjusted for kg of free fat mass (p<0.0001) and was found to be higher also in insulin-resistant vs insulin-sensitive patients (p<0.001). The respiratory quotient was different between groups (0.87±0.11, 0.86±0.12 and 0.91±0.14 in T2DM, insulin-resistant and insulin-sensitive patients, respectively; p<0.03). Regression analysis confirmed that HOMA-IR was independently associated with the REE (R2=0.110, p<0.001). CONCLUSION Class 3 obese patients with normal insulin sensitivity are characterized by reduced fasting REE in comparison to insulin-resistant obese patients and obese patients with short duration of diabetes supporting the hypothesis that down-regulation of nutrients' oxidative disposal may represent an adaptation of energy metabolism in obese individuals with preserved insulin sensitivity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM An accurate estimation of Resting Energy Expenditure (REE) in patients with obesity is crucial. Therefore, our aim was to assess the validity of REE predictive equations based on body composition variables in treatment-seeking Arab adults with obesity. METHODS Body composition and REE were measured by Tanita BC-418 bioimpedance and Vmax Encore 229 IC, respectively, and predictive equations based on fat mass and fat-free mass were used in REE estimations among 87 adults of both genders, in the Outpatient Clinic in the Department of Nutrition and Dietetics at Beirut Arab University (Lebanon). The mean differences between the measured and estimated REE values were calculated to assess the accuracy, and the Bland-Altman method was used to assess the level of agreement. RESULTS Ten predictive equations were included. In males, all the predictive equations gave significantly different estimates of REE when compared to that measured by IC. On the other hand, in females, the mean difference between the REE value estimated by Huang and Horie-Waitzberg equations and that measured using IC was not significant, and the agreement was confirmed using Bland-Altman plots. CONCLUSION Huang and Horie-Waitzberg equations are suggested for accurate REE estimation in females; however, new validated REE estimation equations for males in this population are still needed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed 1) to assess the nutritional status of patients hospitalized in a geriatric ward using the recent Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria, 2) to determine the balance between the energy intake (EI) with an enriched diet and the energy requirement (ER) using indirect calorimetry, and 3) to assess whether undernutrition is associated with 1-year outcome. DESIGN This is a prospective cross-sectional study. SETTING This study was performed in a geriatric unit. PARTICIPANTS Patients of this geriatric unit were eligible for the study if they agreed to participate and if they did not meet the exclusion criteria (presence of malignant tumour, uncontrolled heart or renal failure, thyroidal disease, uncontrolled sepsis, oedema of the lower limbs, wearing of a pacemaker, biological thyroid dysfunction and inability to perform walking tests). MEASUREMENTS Rest energy expenditure (REE) was measured by indirect calorimetry within the week of hospitalization. Total energy expenditure (TEE) was obtained by multiplying REE by a physical activity level coefficient and energy expenditure that was related to thermogenesis (i.e., 10% of the total amount of energy ingested over 24 h) was added. Food intake was measured over a 3-day period. Undernutrition was defined using MNA and the criteria of the GLIM leadership. Clinical outcomes included 1-year institutionalisation and mortality. RESULTS Seventy-nine patients (84.9 ± 5.3 years) were included. A total of 21 (26.6 %) patients were found undernourished. REE was 1088 ± 181kcal/day (17.8 ± 2.9 kcal/kg/day) and TEE was 1556 ± 258 kcal/day (25.4 ± 4.2 kcal/kg/day). Weight-adjusted REE and TEE were higher in undernourished patients compared to those well-nourished (19.8 ± 3.1 vs. 17.1 ± 2.6 kcal/day and 28.4±4.5 vs. 24.4±3.7 kcal/day) (p<0.05). The lower was the Body Mass Index (BMI), the higher was the energy needs (p<0.01). EI was significantly greater than energy requirements (difference requirements - intake with enriched diet = -354 ± 491 kcal/day; p<0.0001). This difference did not depend on BMI (p=0.82), appendicular skeletal mass index (ASMI) (p=0.63), or the presence of undernutrition (p=0.33). At 1-year follow-up, 15 (19%) patients died and 20 (25.6%) were institutionalized. On multivariable analysis, male gender (OR=5.63; p=0.015) and undernutrition (OR=7.29; p=0.0043) emerged as independently associated with death. On multivariable analysis, only ASMI (OR 0.59 (0.35-0.99), p=0.044) and activities of daily living (ADL) (OR 1.14 (1.00-1.30), p=0.043) were significantly associated with institutionalization. CONCLUSIONS Undernutrition as assessed by the GLIM criteria remains common in elderly patients hospitalized in a geriatric unit and is associated with increased 1-year mortality but not with institutionalization. Energy requirements are higher in undernourished patients and in patients with a low BMI. Enriched energy intakes could sufficiently cover the energy needs of this population.

Abstract
Introduction The aim of the study is to show the differences between the measured and estimated values of resting energy expenditure and any changes occurring after the 6-month weight loss intervention program. Methods We included 33 healthy adults aged 25–49 years with an average body mass index 29.1±2.7 kg/m 2 for female and 29.8±2.8 kg/m2 for male. The measured resting energy expenditure was obtained by indirect calorimeter MedGem® Microlife and estimated resting energy expenditure by the Harris–Benedict equation, the Mifflin–St Jeor equation, the Owen equation, the Wright equation, and by the Tanita body composition analyser. All measurements and calculations were carried out before and after the 6-month intervention. Results were compared using paired t-tests. P value less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results A comparison of the measured resting energy expenditure of female subjects with the estimated resting energy expenditure using the Harris–Benedict equation, the Mifflin–St Jeor equation and the Wright equation showed a statistically significant difference. A comparison of the measured resting energy expenditure of male subjects with the estimated resting energy expenditure using the Harris–Benedict equation and the Wright equation showed a statistically significant difference. There was a significant difference in the measured resting energy expenditure and estimated resting energy expenditure using Tanita. Conclusions We concluded that the most comparable equation for our sample was the Owen’s equation. After losing weight, the measured resting energy expenditure has decreased, which must be taken into account in further diet therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Energy expenditure prediction equations are used to estimate energy intake based on general population measures. However, when using equations to compare with a disease cohort with known metabolic abnormalities, it is important to derive one's own equations based on measurement conditions matching the disease cohort. OBJECTIVE We aimed to use newly developed prediction equations based on a healthy pediatric population to describe and predict resting energy expenditure (REE) in a cohort of pediatric patients with thyroid disorders. METHODS Body composition was measured by DXA and REE was assessed by indirect calorimetry in 201 healthy participants. A prediction equation for REE was derived in 100 healthy participants using multiple linear regression and z scores were calculated. The equation was validated in 101 healthy participants. This method was applied to participants with resistance to thyroid hormone (RTH) disorders, due to mutations in either thyroid hormone receptor β or α (β: female n = 17, male n = 9; α: female n = 1, male n = 1), with deviation of REE in patients compared with the healthy population presented by the difference in z scores. RESULTS The prediction equation for REE = 0.061 * Lean soft tissue (kg) - 0.138 * Sex (0 male, 1 female) + 2.41 (R2 = 0.816). The mean ± SD of the residuals is -0.02 ± 0.44 kJ/min. Mean ± SD REE z scores for RTHβ patients are -0.02 ± 1.26. z Scores of -1.69 and -2.05 were recorded in male (n = 1) and female ( n = 1) RTHα patients. CONCLUSIONS We have described methodology whereby differences in REE between patients with a metabolic disorder and healthy participants can be expressed as a z score. This approach also enables change in REE after a clinical intervention (e.g., thyroxine treatment of RTHα) to be monitored.

Abstract
The critically ill polytrauma patient is characterized by a series of metabolic changes induced by inflammation, oxidative stress, sepsis, and primary trauma, as well as associated secondary injuries associated. Metabolic and nutritional dysfunction in the critically ill patient is a complex series of imbalances of biochemical and genetic pathways, as well as the interconnection between them. Therefore, the equation changes in comparison to other critical patients or to healthy individuals, in which cases, mathematical equations can be successfully used to predict the energy requirements. Recent studies have shown that indirect calorimetry is one of the most accurate methods for determining the energy requirements in intubated and mechanically ventilated patients. Current research is oriented towards an individualized therapy depending on the energy consumption (kcal/day) of each patient that also takes into account the clinical dynamics. By using indirect calorimetry, one can measure, in real time, both oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production. Energy requirements (kcal/day) and the respiratory quotient (RQ) can be determined in real time by integrating these dynamic parameters into electronic algorithms. In this manner, nutritional therapy becomes personalized and caters to the patients’ individual needs, helping patients receive the energy substrates they need at each clinically specific time of treatment.

Abstract
Background: Patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage often have impaired consciousness and cannot regulate nutritional intakes themselves. Previous studies have demonstrated elevated energy expenditure in the acute phase, but it is not known whether the energy demand is constant during the first week after onset of the disease. In this study, we performed daily measurements of energy expenditure with indirect calorimetry during the first 7 days after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage in mechanically ventilated patients.Methods: Metabolic measurements were performed daily with indirect calorimetry in 26 patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. All patients were intubated and mechanically ventilated. The measured value was compared to the predicted values from the Harris-Benedict equation and the Penn State University 1998 equation. Urinary nitrogen excretion was measured daily.Results: There was a significant increase in energy expenditure during days 2-3 compared to days 5-6. The Harris-Benedict equation underestimated metabolic demand. The Penn State 1998 equation was closer to the measured values, but still underestimated caloric need. Urinary nitrogen excretion increased throughout the first week from initially low values.Conclusions: There is a dynamic course in energy expenditure in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage, with increasing metabolic demand during the first week of the disease. Indirect calorimetry could be used more often to help provide an adequate amount of energy.

Abstract
Nutrition in pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS) is an essential aspect of therapy, with potential to modify outcomes. The gut is slowly establishing its place as the motor of critical illness, and the 'gut-lung' axis has been shown to be in play in the systemic inflammatory response. Thus, utilizing the gut to modify outcomes in PARDS is an exciting prospect. PARDS is associated with high mortality in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC), where malnutrition is also prevalent and may worsen during hospital stay. Mortality may be higher in this subgroup of patients. At present, the gold standard to estimate resting energy expenditure (REE) in critically ill children is indirect calorimetry. However, it is a cumbersome and expensive procedure, as a result of which its routine practice is limited to very few units across the world. Therefore, predictive equations, which may under- or over-estimate REE, are relied upon to approximate calorie and protein needs of children with PARDS. Despite having target calorie and protein requirements, studies have found that a large proportion of critically ill children do not achieve these levels even at the end of a week in pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). The preferred mode of nutrition delivery is enteral, and if possible, early enteral nutrition (EEN). Immunonutrition has been a lucrative subject of research, and while there have been some strides, no therapy has yet conclusively demonstrated benefit in terms of mortality or reduced length of stay in PICU or the hospital. Probable immunonutrients in PARDS include omega-3 fatty acids, arginine, glutamine and vitamin D, though none are a part of any recommendations yet.

Abstract
Repeated periodization of carbohydrate (CHO) intake using a diet-exercise strategy called the sleep-low model can potentially induce mitochondrial biogenesis and improve endurance performance in endurance-trained individuals. However, more studies are needed to confirm the performance-related effects and to investigate the sustained effects on maximal fat oxidation (MFO) rate and proteins involved in intramuscular lipid metabolism. Thirteen endurance-trained males (age 23-44 years; V ˙ O2 -max, 63.9 ± 4.6 mL·kg-1 ·min-1 ) were randomized into two groups: sleep-low (LOW-CHO) or high CHO availability (HIGH-CHO) in three weekly training blocks over 4 weeks. The acute metabolic response was investigated during 60 minutes of exercise within the last 3 weeks of the intervention. Pre- and post-intervention, 30-minute time-trial performance was investigated after a 90-minute pre-load, which as a novel approach included nine intense intervals (and estimation of MFO). Additionally, muscle biopsies (v. lateralis) were obtained to investigate expression of proteins involved in intramuscular lipid metabolism using Western blotting. During acute exercise, average fat oxidation rate was ~36% higher in LOW-CHO compared to HIGH-CHO (P = .03). This did not translate into sustained effects on MFO. Time-trial performance increased equally in both groups (overall time effect: P = .005). We observed no effect on intramuscular proteins involved in lipolysis (ATGL, G0S2, CGI-58, HSL) or fatty acid transport and β-oxidation (CD-36 and HAD, respectively). In conclusion, the sleep-low model did not induce sustained effects on MFO, endurance performance, or proteins involved in intramuscular lipid metabolism when compared to HIGH-CHO. Our study therefore questions the transferability of acute effects of the sleep-low model to superior sustained adaptations.
