Summary: This paper investigates the effects of different activity intensities on metabolic rate and physiological responses through controlled climate chamber experiments. The study finds significant differences in metabolic rate among different age and BMI groups, as well as impacts of temperature, humidity, and other environmental factors on metabolic rate.

Summary: Despite a significant drop in adult physical activity levels in India between 1983 and 2012, total energy expenditures remained flat overall due to rising metabolic requirements from increases in weight. In addition, the decline in the population share of children during the period led to a considerable increase in average total energy expenditures, as children have lower metabolic requirements and activity levels than adults.

Summary: Powered exoskeleton training can increase energy expenditure and improve gait function, more effectively than wheelchair propulsion. The training involves moderate-intensity exercise for patients, potentially leading to increased energy expenditure and more effective improvement in cardiovascular function compared to wheelchair propulsion.

Summary: Longitudinal changes in resting energy expenditure, oxygen delivery, and distribution and processing may occur after major surgery. This study analyzed the pattern of these parameters in critically ill patients who died during hospitalization. The results showed that survivors experienced a transition from negative to positive energy balance, while non-survivors had decreased oxygen delivery and extraction. A lower resting energy expenditure was associated with worse survival at various time points. Non-survivors seemed to be unable to adapt metabolically from the early phase to the later phase.

Summary: Regulating energetic expenditure in a changing environment is crucial for organism-environment interactions. This study evaluated the total energetic cost of Gambel's white-crowned sparrows using heart-rate transmitters and found that ambient temperature affects allostatic load. However, baseline corticosterone levels do not vary with heart rate or temperature. Manipulating feeding effort did not result in increased baseline corticosterone levels, indicating further research is needed to understand the adrenocortical response to increased allostatic load.

Summary: This study introduces a highly accurate method for estimating human energy expenditure during exercise using wearable sensors and machine learning. The proposed estimation shows a correlation up to 0.976 with ground truth values, highlighting its potential for widespread use in fitness, healthcare, and sports performance monitoring.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the increase in energy expenditure using surface neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) for paralyzed lower-limb muscles and whether the number of activated muscles and duty cycle affect the potential increase. The results showed that energy expenditure during all NMES protocols was significantly higher than without NMES, with the highest increase for the protocol with more muscles activated and the duty cycle with a shorter rest period.

Summary: Based on the hypothesis of the environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) and using Chinese provincial panel data from 2002 to 2019, this study investigates the contributions of different types of healthcare expenditure, economic development levels, and energy consumption to regional carbon emissions. The findings support the EKC hypothesis in eastern China and demonstrate the carbon reduction effects of government, private, and social health expenditure. The study reveals that the impact of health expenditure on carbon reduction decreases from East to West, with private health expenditure having the largest negative effect on CO2 emissions.

Summary: The aim of this study was to define the minimum duration of steady state condition needed to obtain reliable data on REE in stable, very low birth weight infants. The results showed that a continuous 20-minute steady state condition was sufficient to obtain reliable data on REE in these infants.

Summary: Deiodinases modify the biological activity of thyroid hormone molecules by activating or inactivating them, providing dynamic control of TH signaling. Their coordinated expression adjusts TH signaling in a time- and tissue-specific fashion, affecting metabolic pathways in health and disease states.

Summary: The study revealed that altering the bounce style significantly affects the physiological demands of trampolining, with significant differences in heart rate and energy expenditure between different bounce variations, particularly between conventional bounce and other variations. This suggests that the energy expenditure equation for trampolining needs to be updated to better reflect the rate of energy expenditure during different bounce styles.

Summary: This study aims to determine whether genistein activates thermogenesis and mitochondrial activity in white adipose tissue (WAT) through the G-coupled receptor GPR30. The results show that GPR30 partially mediates genistein stimulation of WAT thermogenesis and the improvement of glucose tolerance.

Summary: Paediatric obstructive sleep disordered breathing (OSDB) has significant effects on cardiovascular physiology and metabolism. This study aimed to estimate the metabolism of paediatric OSDB at rest and during exercise. The results showed that children with OSDB had higher resting heart rate, oxygen consumption, and energy expenditure compared to controls. They also had lower maximal oxygen consumption and energy expenditure during exercise. The increment of oxygen consumption and energy expenditure with exercise was lower in children with OSDB.
