Assessment
In obese adults, what is the prediction accuracy and maximum overestimation and understimation errors compared to measured resting metabolic rate when using the Mifflin-St.Jeor formula?
-
Conclusion
One study of high research quality design reported that the Mifflin-St. Jeor equation accurately predicted RMR using actual body weight within +/- 10% of measured RMR in 70% of obese individuals. Of the remaining 30%, 9% were overestimations and 21% were underestimations. The individual error range was a maximum overestimate of 15% to a maximum underestimate of 20%.

Grade: II
- Grade I means there is Good/Strong evidence supporting the statement;
- Grade II is Fair;
- Grade III is Limited/Weak;
- Grade IV is Expert Opinion Only;
- Grade V is Not Assignable.
- High (A) means we are very confident that the true effect lies close to that of the estimate of the effect;
- Moderate (B) means we are moderately confident in the effect estimate;
- Low (C) means our confidence in the effect estimate is limited;
- Very Low (D) means we have very little confidence in the effect estimate.
- Ungraded means a grade is not assignable.
