Table 4. Prediction Equations correlation with measured REE in Adults with BeMD.

Equation REE (Kcal/Day) Bias (Kcal) Limits of Agreement (-/+(Kcal) Correlation (R2)
Measured 1786 (324) n/a n/a n/a
Schofield et al (1985) 2514 (340)* -728 -1126, -328 0.66
Mifflin et al (1990) 1801 (197) -8 -429, 412 0.58
FFM x 34.572–270.51 1787 (299) 0 -241, 241 0.86
BM x 15.652 + 421.15 1786 (279) 0.02 -362, 362 0.66

Values shown are measured and predicted REE and correlation values (R2).

*Denotes significant difference between measured and estimated REE.

REE = Resting Energy Expenditure; Kcal = Kilocalories; FFM = Fat Free Mass; BM = Body Mass.
