Entre ideias e desdobramentos normativos : o Plano de Preservação dos Sítios Históricos da Região Metropolitana do Recife (PPSH/RMR)
… da Região Metropolitana do Recife (PPSH/RMR). Tomando-o como objeto empírico, assumimos como hipótese que esse plano foi um importante marco no desenvolvimento das políticas de preservação dos sítios históricos em Pernambuco e, principalmente, do Recife, com desdobramentos em normativas e …

The Effects of Exercise Training on Resting Metabolic Rate in Youth with Overweight or Obesity
Resting metabolic rate (RMR) is the largest component in energy expenditure and is often reduced with weight loss. Exercise training has been shown to attenuate RMR reductions in adults. However, little is known about the effects of exercise training and body composition changes on RMR in youth …

The Relationship between Resting Metabolic Rate and Cardiovascular Risk Factors in the Obesity
OBJECT: Resting metabolic rate (RMR) poses the largest portion in daily energy expenditure. After adjusting height and weight, progression towards obesity is less in higher RMR group than the lower ones. Based on the theory that obesity has a higher risk of cardiovascular disease, we studied …

A Comparison of the Effects of Interval Training vs. Continuous Training on Weight Loss and Body Composition in Obese Pre-Menopausal Women.
… body composition, and resting metabolic rate (RMR) were measured pre and post training. RMR was measured after exercise at week 2 to see if intensity levels affected RMR. VO<sub>2</sub>max and body composition improved in IT but not in ST. Neither group showed a change in RMR from pretest to …

The Epidemiology and Evolution of Rifampicin Mono Resistant Tuberculosis in Khayelitsha, Cape Town, South Africa
… 2018, rifampicin monoresistant tuberculosis (RMR-TB) comprises 22% and 38% of all rifampicin-resistant TB (RR-TB) globally, and within South Africa, respectively. National surveys from South Africa show an increasing proportion of RMR-TB among TB cases compared to multi-drug resistant …

The Relationship Between Lean Body Mass, Resting Metabolic Rate, and Peak Oxygen Consumption in Spinal Cord-Injured and Able-Bodied Individuals
… lean tissue mass (MFL), resting metabolic rate (RMR), and peak oxygen consumption (peak VO2) and to examine the appropriateness of AB equations for the prediction of RMR in paraplegic and quadriplegic individuals. The study involved a total of 50 participants (10 male individuals with paraplegia, …

The effects of omega-3 supplementation on whole body and skeletal muscle energy metabolism in humans
… on whole body resting metabolic rate (RMR) and fatty acid (FA) oxidation is limited and controversial. In the first study of this thesis, supplementing with a high dose of fish oil (FO) containing 2 g/d eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and 1 g/d docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) for 12 weeks, in …

What goes down need not go back up: decreasing the biological drive toward weight regain by increasing energy flux
… by decreased resting metabolic rate (RMR) and increased hunger can prevent long-term success. Possibly this energy gap could be attenuated by a high flux (HF) state (higher expenditure coupled with higher intake). METHODS: 6 obese adults [age (mean±SE) = 42±12 y; body mass index …

Effets de bêta-bloquants adrénergiques et de bloquants des canaux calciques sur la composition corporelle et sur le taux métabolique au repos avant et après un entraînement chronique de type aérobie
… d'un blocage du taux métabolique au repos (RMR) induit par l'administration chronique de médicaments abaissant la pression artérielle et la fréquence cardiaque. En outre, l'étude voulait vérifier si la RMR et la composition corporelle des sujets prenant des bêta-bloquants adrénergiques …

Comparison of isoenergetic aerobic versus aerobic plus resistance exercise program during a weight loss program
… more percent body fat and FFM than GP2. Absolute RMR showed a nonsignificant decrease overtime for both groups (-139.7 ± 107.5 kcal/day and -48.1 ± 75.0 kcal/day for GP1 and GP2, respectively). RMR expressed per bodyweight (kg) or fat free mass was maintained for both groups over the experiment …

Health and lifestyle profiles across the lifespan: results from the Louisiana Healthy Aging Study
… incidence of disease. Resting metabolic rate (RMR), markers of oxidative stress to lipids, proteins, and DNA, components of the metabolic syndrome, and physical activity level were measured in 3 groups of individuals aged 20-34 (16M/25F), 60-74 (16M/11F), and >90y (23M/25F). RMR, adjusted for …

A comparison of resting metabolic rates among cardiovascular fit, muscularly fit, and sedentary men
Resting metabolic rate (RMR) was studied in 29 cardiovascularly-trained (CV), resistance-trained (WT), and sedentary men (Sed) between the ages of 18 and 35 years. The hypothesis was that CV (n = 9) and WT (n = 10) would have higher resting metabolic rates than Sed (n = 10). RMR was measured by …

The effect of resistive exercise on resting metabolic rate, lean body weight, and percent fat during caloric restriction in obese females
… and alterations in resting metabolic rate (RMR). The RMR has been shown to be reduced after weight reduction and it is believed that a benefit of exercise training is an adaptive increase in lean body weight (LBW) with a concurrent decrease in excess body fat. Since caloric restriction is …
