Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2
Conditions
Brief summary
The present study evaluated the statistical and clinical performance of the six common equations in subjects with type 2 diabetes adopting indirect calorimetry as reference standard
Detailed description
All consecutive subjects with type 2 diabetes referred from June 2012 to December 2019 were eligible. They were excluded if data on ongoing therapy, anthropometric or laboratory parameters, or measured REE was not available or if presenting with conditions known to affect indirect calorimetry.
