Fasting respiratory quotient as a predictor of weight changes in non-obese women

Fasting respiratory quotient as a predictor of weight changes in non-obese women

To detect predictive variables of weight changes in non-obese women. Three year follow-up study. Fifty-eight women (age 40.0+/-12.8 y, height 159+/-7 cm, weight 62.5+/-9.6 kg and body mass index ((BMI) 24.7+/-3.7 kg/m2). At baseline, basal metabolic rate (BMR) and respiratory quotient (RQ) by indire...

Zusammenfassung:To detect predictive variables of weight changes in non-obese women. Three year follow-up study. Fifty-eight women (age 40.0+/-12.8 y, height 159+/-7 cm, weight 62.5+/-9.6 kg and body mass index ((BMI) 24.7+/-3.7 kg/m2). At baseline, basal metabolic rate (BMR) and respiratory quotient (RQ) by indirect calorimetry. Weight and BMI at baseline and after 3 y. In both univariate and multivariate analyses, age and RQ at baseline were significant predictors (P
