This study sought to identify adults and children as under- (UR), acceptable (AR), or over-reporters (OR) of energy intake (EI) using energy expenditure measured by doubly labelled water
Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To identify adults and children as under- (UR), acceptable (AR), or over-reporters (OR) of energy intake (EI) using energy expenditure measured by doubly labelled water (DLW) (EE(DLW)), and to use this as a reference to determine the sensitivity and specificity of (i) EE measured by heart rate (EE(HR)), and (ii) the Goldberg cut-off technique for classifying subjects into the more...

The aim of the study was to compared lean children at high risk and low risk of obesity and obese children to assess the relationship between their energy and fat intake and adiposity
Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: This study compared lean children at high risk (HR) and low risk (LR) of obesity and obese children (OB) to assess the relationship between their energy (EI) and fat intake and adiposity. DESIGN: Cross-sectional study of energy and fat intake in children, using 7-day weighed intakes validated by doubly labelled water (DLW) energy expenditure. SUBJECTS: A total of 114 more...

The aim of this study was to examine the impact of applying seven calibration equations in the estimation of free-living total energy expenditure over 2-3 d in seven boys (mean +/- SD age 9.4+/-0.4 yr) by the Flex heart rate (HR) method
Abstract:
PURPOSE: To evaluate the impact of applying seven calibration equations (CE) in the estimation of free-living total energy expenditure (TEE) over 2-3 d in seven boys (mean +/- SD age 9.4+/-0.4 yr) by the Flex heart rate (HR) method. METHODS: HR and oxygen consumption were measured simultaneously for eight activities (lying, sitting, standing, arm-reaching exercise, a more...

This article discusses the epidemiology of childhood obesity in Europe
Abstract:
At present, estimation of the prevalence and secular trends in paediatric obesity in Europe is severely hampered by methodological problems in the definition of obesity and the paucity of data sets that mirror the demographic, cultural and socioeconomic composition of the European population. The available cross-sectional data, however imperfect, suggest that there are complex patterns more...

This article discusses studies in which energy intake was reported and energy expenditure was measured using the doubly labeled water technique
Abstract:
Energy intake (EI) is the foundation of the diet, because all other nutrients must be provided within the quantity of food needed to fulfill the energy requirement. Thus if total EI is underestimated, it is probable that the intakes of other nutrients are also underestimated. Under conditions of weight stability, EI equals energy expenditure (EE). Because at the group level weight may more...

This article discusses the cognitive abilities required to self-report food intake include an adequately developed concept of time, a good memory and attention span, a knowledge the names of foods
Abstract:
When children and adolescents are the target population in dietary surveys many different respondent and observer considerations surface. The cognitive abilities required to self-report food intake include an adequately developed concept of time, a good memory and attention span, and a knowledge of the names of foods. From the age of 8 years there is a rapid increase in the ability of more...

This article discusses issues of obesity and energy intake
Abstract:
Obesity is now regarded as a global epidemic affecting both adults and children, and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Thus the effective management of obesity has become an important clinical focus. Therefore, an understanding of the pathways controlling appetite, satiety and food intake is critical for gaining an insight into the pathogenesis of obesity and also more...

The aim of this study was to investigate the amount of regular activity and time spent in sedentary occupations in children aged 7--9 years
Abstract:
OBJECTIVES: To investigate the amount of regular activity and time spent in sedentary occupations in children aged 7--9 years. Sex differences in levels of activity and time and facilities for physical education at school were also examined. METHODS: A 10% sample of Dublin National Schools were selected. Parents of children in second class were surveyed. The questionnaire used was a more...

The aim of this study was to examine the effect of ankle-foot orthoses on gait and energy expenditure in children with spina bifida
Abstract:
We examined the effect of ankle-foot orthoses (AFOs) on gait and energy expenditure in children with spina bifida. Nine boys and three girls, 6 to 16 years of age, took part in the study. There were four children each with L4, L5, and sacral level lesions. Each child underwent gait analysis and energy consumption studies with and without AFOs. Walking speed was faster with AFOs (mean, more...
