Mechanistic model of mass-specific basal metabolic rate: evaluation in healthy young adults.

Year: 2011

Type: article

Abstract: = 0.50) between the measured and predicted mass-specific BMR, versus the average of measured and predicted mass-specific BMR. In conclusion, the proposed mechanistic model was validated in non-elderly non-obese adults and can help to understand the inherent relationship between mass-specific BMR and body composition.
