Comparative analysis reveals prediction equations for resting energy expenditure in NAFLD and type 2 diabetes mellitus are limited, indicating a need for improvement.
The FAO/WHO/UNU (weight) equation, thus, performed the best in predicting energy expenditure when applied to patients with NAFLD and T2DM. However, all the prediction equations provided REE estimates within 10% of the measured ones in less than 50% of the cases.
