The accurate estimation of energy expenditure is essential for conducting comprehensive nutrition assessments, planning menus and meals, prescribing weight and chronic disease interventions, and the prevention of malnutrition. This study aimed to: (a) determine the contribution of cardiometabolic biomarkers to the inter-individual variation in REE in persons categorized by BMI; and (b) assess the contribution of these biomarkers in the prediction of REE when persons of varying BMI status were categorized by their glycemic and metabolic syndrome status. Baseline data from 645 adults enrolled in diet intervention trials included REE measured by indirect calorimetry, body composition by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry, anthropometrics, and cardiometabolic biomarkers. Multivariate linear regression modeling was conducted to determine the most pa...
