1Limits of agreement: range of differences between predicted total energy expenditure (TEE) (by equation) and measured energy expenditure (by indirect calorimetry), Bias: difference between predicted energy expenditure (by equation) and measured energy expenditure (by indirect calorimetry), and % Precision: percentage of cases where the predicted energy expenditure (by equation) was 90%–110% of the measured energy expenditure (by indirect calorimetry).2 Mean (95% confidence interval).3 Compared with the measured resting energy expenditure (by indirect calorimetry).4 Compared with the measured total energy expenditure (by indirect calorimetry). ∗p < 0.05.
