Influence of vitamin A consumption on resting metabolic rate and fasting respiratory quotient in severely obese subjects.
OBJECTIVE To study whether or not the amount of vitamin A consumed affects the resting metabolic rate (RMR) and fat oxidation at rest in severely obese subjects. MATERIALS AND METHODS In 239 obese subjects, RMR and fasting respiratory quotient (RQ) were determined by indirect calorimetry. Vitamin A consumption was calculated by the Czech PC program 'Nutrition'. The relation between the intake...
متن کاملInfluence of fasting on lung oxygen consumption and respiratory quotient.
We measured the oxygen consumption (QO2) of lung slices from rats and rabbits and the respiratory quotient (RQ) of lung slices from fed and fasted rats. The QO2 of lung slices is lowered within 24 h after the onset of food deprivation; this decrease in QO2 lasts during at least 2 additional days of fasting and is not eliminated by addition of glucose to the reaction medium. In fed rats the RQ o...

Obese women tend to experience more menstrual irregularity than nonobese women, resulting in a higher...

متن کاملThoracic circumference as a predictor of metabolic syndrome and changes in its components in non-obese adults
Results There were evaluated 85 men and 191 women and mean age was 34.9 ±11.2 yrs. (33,7 yrs. men; 35,5 yrs. women). The group BMI average was 25.0±2.9 Kg/m2 (25.0±2,84 men; 24,9±2,86 women); waist circumference average was 86,9±8,2 cm (89,6±7,9cm men; 85,6±8,1cm women); TC average was 90.0±6,7 cm ( 85,8±6,1 men; 87,5±5,2cm women). The prevalence of metabolic syndrome in this group was 28%. TC ...
