background : underweight as a public health problem in young women is associated with nutritional deficiencies, menstrual irregularity, eating disorders, reduced fertility, etc. since resting metabolic rate (rmr) is a necessary compo-nent in the development of nutrition support therapy, therefore we determined the accuracy of commonly used pre-dictive equations against rmr measured by indirect ...

although there is enough knowledge indicating on the influence of frequency content of input motion on the deformation demand of structures, state-of-the-practice seismic studies use the intensity measures such as peak ground acceleration (pga) which are not frequency dependent. the v max/a max ratio of strong ground motions can be used in seismic hazard studies as the representative of frequen...

arterial blood gas parameters were analyzed in forty-nine healthy persons (31 males, 18 females) to detemine reference values fo these parameters and their relation to the time from last food intake to arterial puncture (t). the mean ± standard deviation of arterial oxygen pressure, arterial carbon dioxide pressure and ph at core body temperature were 84.4±7.0 mmhg (male: 83.0±6.5, female: 86.7...

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to assess the accuracy of a dietary reference intake (DRI) predictive equation for estimated energy requirements (EER) in female college tennis athletes and non-athlete students using doubly labeled water (DLW) as a reference method. MATERIALS/METHODS Fifteen female college students, including eight tennis athletes and seven non-athlete subj...

INTRODUCTION Resting energy expenditure (REE) is expected to be higher in athletes because of their relatively high fat free mass (FFM). Therefore, REE predictive equation for recreational athletes may be required. The aim of this study was to validate existing REE predictive equations and to develop a new recreational athlete specific equation. METHODS 90 (53 M, 37 F) adult athletes, exercis...
