Abstract excerpt
AIM: We aimed to identify the optimal method to estimate total energy expenditure (TEE) in mitochondrial disease (MD) patients. METHODS: Resting energy expenditure (REE) was measured in MD patients carrying the m3243A>G mutation using indirect calorimetry (IC) and compared with results of 21 predictive equations (PEs) for REE and with REE-IC measurements in healthy controls. Physical activity level (PAL) was...
