Characteristics of resting energy expenditure and evaluation of prediction formulas in young men with different body mass indexes

OBJECTIVE: To compare the resting energy expenditure (REE) characteristics among young men with different body mass indexes (BMI).

METHODS: Thirty young men [average age was (26.93±4.16) years] were enrolled in this study. They underwent resting metabolism tests in the Department of Sports Medicine of Peking University Third Hospital from December 2017 to June 2021. The resting metabolic rate (RMR) was measured by indirect calorimetry, the body composition was measured by bioresistance antibody component analyzer. The REE characteristics were analyzed, and 11 predictive equations were used to estimate RMR and compared with the measured value. The differences were analyzed by paired t-test and intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC).

RESULTS: The RMR of the overall 30 young men was (1 960.17±463.11) kcal/d (1 kcal=4.186 8 kJ). Including (1 744.33±249.62) kcal/d in those with normal BMI, which was significantly lower than that in those who were overweight or obese [(2 104.06± 520.32) kcal/d, P < 0.01], but the weight-corrected RMR in those with normal BMI was significantly higher than that in those who were overweight or obese [(24.02±2.61) kcal/(kg·d) vs. (19.98±4.38) kcal/(kg·d), P < 0.01]. The RMR was significantly and positively correlated with body weight, adiposity, lean body mass, body surface area, and extracellular fluid in the subjects with diffe-rent BMI (all P < 0.05). The predicted values of the 11 prediction equations were not in good agreement with the measured values (all ICC < 0.75), with relatively high agreement between the predicted and measured values of the World Health Organization (WHO) equation in overweight obese young men (ICC=0.547, P < 0.01).

CONCLUSION: There were significant differences in RMR among young men with different BMI, and the RMR after weight correction should be considered for those who were overweight or obese. The consistency between the predicted values of different prediction equations and the actual measured values of RMR was relatively poor, and it is recommended to accurately measure RMR by indirect calorimetry. For overweight or obese young men, the WHO prediction equation can be considered to calculate RMR, but it is necessary to establish an RMR prediction equation applicable to different BMI populations.
