Brown adipose tissue (BAT) has been considered a vital organ in response to non-shivering
adaptive thermogenesis, which could be activated during cold exposure through the …

Methods: In this cross-sectional study, BAT activity was evaluated in 21 men using 18 F-
fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose positron emission tomography combined with computed …

Calorie restriction without malnutrition increases longevity and delays the onset of age-
associated disorders in multiple species. Recently, greater emphasis has been placed on …

Background The aim was to examine the validity of a triaxial accelerometer (ACCTRI) and a
simplified physical activity record (sPAR) in estimating total energy expenditure (TEE) and …

Objective The aim of this study was to validate two new whole‐room indirfect calorimeters
according to Room Indirect Calorimetry Operating and Reporting Standards (RICORS 1.0) …

We tested whether spontaneous physical activity (SPA) from accelerometers could be used
in a whole-room calorimeter to estimate thermic effect of food (TEF). Eleven healthy …

Motor performance patterns for mechanical assistance on unilateral force control can be
affected by simultaneous muscle contraction. This study investigated how muscle activity …

Diet-induced thermogenesis (DIT) refers to energy expenditure (EE) related to food
consumption. Enhancing DIT can lead to weight loss. Factors that increase DIT are expected …

Background and objectives: It has been well established that the resting energy expenditure
(REE) for the whole body is the sum of the REE for each organ-tissue in young and middle …

It is unclear whether the resting metabolic rate of individual organ-tissue in adults with high
aerobic fitness is higher than that in untrained adults; in fact, this topic has been debated for …
