Evaluation of resting energy expenditure (REE) predictive equations in 76 non-obese children and adolescents based on bias, root mean squared prediction error (RMPSE), and percentage of accurate prediction

¹⁾Mean ± SD

²⁾Mean (range)

^3)*P < 0.05, ^***P < 0.001 Significantly different by paired t-test between predicted REE and measured REE

⁴⁾[(predicted REE - measured REE) / measured REE] × 100

⁵⁾Root Mean Squared Prediction Error = √(Σ(Predicted REE-Measured REE)² / N)

⁶⁾Percentage of subjects predicted by equation within 90% to 110% of measured REE

⁷⁾Percentage of subjects predicted by equation < 90% of measured REE

⁸⁾Percentage of subjects predicted by equation > 110% of measured REE
