Correct classification fraction of the REE prediction equations. Dot charts showing the correct classification fraction of the REE prediction equations in the 2426 children stratified by sex and obesity. The correct classification fraction of an equation is defined as the fraction of subjects whose estimated resting energy expenditure is within 10% of measured resting energy expenditure and varies from 0 (0%) to 1 (100%). Abbreviations: WHO = World Health Organization; Wt = weight; Ht = height; IOM = Institute of Medicine; NW = (equation for) children with normal weight; OW = (equation for) children with overweight; OB = (equation for) children with obesity.
