Introduccin

There are several factors that influence the energy expenditure at rest, GER, and determine their significant variation from one person to another, among these factors are body composition, especially the percentage of muscle mass, age, sex, hormone production, level of physical activity, physiological state, drugs that alter metabolism and pathology (1,30). The determination of energy requirement for the GER is the initial and basic component in the nutritional care process, for this purpose, prediction equations based on anthropometric data that are easy to implement with low complexity and cost, but not precise, and developed in different populations. The most accurate methods are usually complex, expensive, invasive and not available for general use, especially in the outpatient setting.

Indirect calorimetry, IC, is a method used to calculate energy expenditure. It is a non-invasive and very reliable technique commonly used in the clinical area. Through IC, basal energy expenditure is estimated indirectly using the caloric equivalents of oxygen (O2) consumed and carbon dioxide (CO2) produced (2,3). This energy produced corresponds to conversion through chemical energy of nutrients ingested and stored as ATP, the energy that is dissipated as heat during the oxidation process. Thus, the O2 consumed oxidizes the energy substrates of macronutrients (proteins, carbohydrates, and fats) and CO2 eliminated by respiration, makes it possible to calculate total energy produced by nutrients (2)

This principle is based on the exchange of gases; the respiration in a calorimeter produces a depletion of O2 and accumulation of CO2, this amount of O2 consumed, and CO2 produced is determined by multiplying ventilation frequency, of 1L/sec, by the change in gas concentration that has a value of 1.0 for the oxidation of carbohydrates, 0.81 for protein and 0.71 for lipids (4.5).

Estimating and understanding these values of resting energy expenditure allows the nutritionist to provide adequate nutritional management to the individual (6-10), balanced in relation to food consumption and energy expenditure. Prediction equations, in general, have been developed and validated using data collected from individuals of different ages, sex, ethnicities, body compositions, physical activity levels, and other physical characteristics, therefore, the prediction equations may not be So accurate when applied to populations other than those used for their development, so the usefulness, validity, and reliability of the prediction formulas must be evaluated when the population in which they wish to apply them differs considerably from the populations in which these formulas were developed, several studies show that there are a considerable difference and an error of estimation that is necessary to know for a correct application in clinical practice (11,20). In order to improve the predictive capacity of the formulas have included different variables and proposed the use of fat-free mass because it explains from 53% to 88% of the variation in the rate of metabolism at rest (12,21-29).

When reviewing scientific literature, no studies have been found that validate the different GEE prediction equations in Ecuadorian population, especially with elements of body composition compared to more precise and direct measurement methods such as indirect calorimetry. The purpose of this study was to develop a prediction equation of GER in healthy or apparently healthy adult population that uses different body components such as fat-free mass and validate it in relation to GER by indirect calorimetry and establish its accuracy and concordance in comparison with other prediction formulas commonly used.

 

Methods

A cross-sectional study was carried out, the sample size was calculated for a correlation coefficient r between indirect Calorimetry and predictive model of 0.850, a confidence level of 95% and a maximum error of 0.10, 10% was added for possible losses, so the final size was 38 subjects. We consecutively selected 15 men (39.5%) and 23 women (60.5%), university students who voluntarily participated in the Polytechnic School of the Litoral (ESPOL) in 2017 second therm. They responded to recruitment messages through web announcements of the Nutrition Career of ESPOL. Inclusion criteria: apparently healthy subjects, with no known pathology that could affect their basal metabolic rate, not having drinks with caffeine or smoking. Pregnant women who knew about their condition and/or nursing mothers were not part of the study. Informed consent was obtained from all participants, the protocol was approved by the Institutional Review Committee and Helsiki Declaration principles were followed (13).

The Resting Metabolic Rate, TMR, was measured by closed-circuit ventilatory indirect calorimetry with a portable MedGem calorimeter and following the manufacturer's protocol, this procedure determines the caloric requirement based on oxygen consumption (VO2), it is calculated routinely from oxygen consumption using a constant respiratory coefficient of 0.85%, which considers a clinically acceptable error of 2.5%. The TMR is also known as resting energy expenditure (GER) and calculated using the Weir equation: Heat output = 3,941 x oxygen consumption in liters +1.106 carbon dioxide produced in liters -2.17 x urinary nitrogen in grams. This equation has been modified by Vo2 and Vco2 for indirect calorimetry. RMR = [(3.9 x Vo2) + (1.1 x Vco2)] 1440 (14.15). The difference in energy expenditure calculations does not differ significantly when it is done with or without nitrogen excretion values, the Weir equation omits the urinary nitrogen and the result is expressed in Kcal/day (16,17).

The participants reported whether they had observed the procedure instructions, tests and did not present any respiratory disease at the time of the evaluation. Before each procedure, they were in absolute rest in the nutritional assessment room with dim lighting and controlled the temperature of 22 degrees Celsius, with a medical gown and seated position. All participants were warned not to perform physical activity with a minimum time of 4 hours and with minimum rest of 20 minutes before the test. Those evaluated were in the post-absorptive feeding period, the test was performed after 2 pm and their last meal was breakfast, participants did not consume caffeine at least 12 hours before the test and/or did not report having consumed alcohol 24 hours. The duration of the test was 10 minutes (5-10 min). It was recommended that patients didn't smoke or drink caffeine on the day of the evaluation. The test was controlled by the researchers. The procedure was considered valid if the device did not report an-error in the measurement, and the evaluated one has complied with all the requirements of the procedure.

The body composition was evaluated using a Tanita BC -418 electric bioimpedance balance with an accuracy of 0.1 kg for the recording of weight, fat mass, and lean mass. The scale was calibrated before beginning the process. Participants were normally hydrated so that it could not alter lean tissue values. The size was measured in centimeters using a Seca stadiometer.

After data verification and debugging, we proceeded to perform a descriptive analysis according to the type of variable, quantitative variables were described as mean and standard deviation or median and interquartile interval, depending on the normality or otherwise of its distribution. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was used to verify its normal distribution and the eventual need for transformations or groupings. A prediction formula was developed using multiple linear regression in two models, the first with the variables age, sex, BMI and lean mass and the second only with the use of lean mass. The accuracy and concordance of the prediction formula developed by the authors were verified and compared in these terms with the formulas of Harris & Benedict (19), Mifflin (20), Owen (22.23), Institute of Medicine (24), Estimation Fast (25) and Cunninghan (16). The Student t or Mann-Whitney U tests were used to analyze the differences of the variables according to sex. The agreement between the indirect calorimetry and the predictive models was evaluated by the Bland-Altman method and the accuracy by the percentage of values +/-10% of the value measured by IC (18). The statistical significance was reached with p < 0.05. For the models developed, the formulas that met the following criteria were selected: (i) an r 0.7 and (ii) no linear trend in the Bland-Altman analysis method (18).

 

Results

Participants were 38 individuals aged between 20 to 45 years, 24 (5.5) median, the Body Mass Index (BMI) with a maximum of 34.5 and a minimum of 17.9, 24.5 (3.7), average, muscle mass maximum value was 68.7 and minimum 34.2 with 46.8 (9.5) mean. In Table 1. Mean, standard deviation or median and interquartile range are reported for each variable used in this study according to sex, as well as the p-value for the average or median difference test, the only significant difference was found in the averages of muscle mass that were higher in men so this variable was included in the prediction model.

To verify the relevance or not of making a model that uses only muscle mass as the only significant variable, the multiple regression model was run again but this time as an "Enter step-wise forward" modality in which variables are included or not depending of its contribution to the variation in the r2 of the model, table 3. It was observed that the model includes only the variable Muscle mass (kg) and excludes the other variables so that the final prediction formula considers only the muscle mass.

With this model that uses muscle mass, the caloric requirements were calculated with the prediction formula proposed by the authors according to linear regression coefficients described: GER = 62.8 + 23.3 * Muscle mass kg. To compare the accuracy and concordance with other prediction formulas developed with different populations, the following formulas were used: Harris & Benedict, Owen, Mifflin, Institute of Medicine, Rapid Estimation and Cunningham; for all the formulas, agreement was assessed according to the Bland Altman method, as well as the accuracy considered as the percentage of values between +/-10% of the values estimated by indirect calorimetry Table 4

For the agreement evaluation the Bland Altman method was used, it was observed that the agreement was superior for the estimation of the GER with the author's formula compared with Harris-Benedict, Mifflin, Owen, Institute of Medicine, Rapid Estimation and Cunningham. In Figure 1. The calculated values for the estimate between the estimated average values and the difference in the estimate compared with the indirect calorimetry plotted on the y-axis and the average of the measurement on the x-axis, a range of values between averages + -2 standard deviations is used and the correlation is based on the clinical significance of the range of values found, where a better agreement is observed in the equation generated by authors for the prediction of Resting Energy Requirement.

Discussin

The estimate of resting energy requirement by prediction formula developed by the authors considering muscle mass in kilograms had a concordance and accuracy significantly higher than that of Harris Benedict widely used in the clinical setting despite knowing their limitations and inaccuracy. The best accuracy and concordance observed in the formula developed by the authors is possible due to some factors, the most important that was developed with local population and because it takes into account as the main and only factor the muscle mass that is the most important determinant of the magnitude of the caloric requirement (19).

The difference in results of caloric requirements with prediction formulas and indirect calorimetry is probably due to the fact that these were developed in another type of population and any prediction formula before use should be analyzed on whether the population in the that was developed agrees or is similar to the target population in which it is desired to apply, so the formula developed by the authors does not pretend to be universal but related and applicable to a population similar to the one proposed in this study and demonstrates the need to adapt the formulas developed in different populations to those that will be applied.

A limitation in the realization of this study was the sample size, and a larger sample would give the possibility of obtaining better performance parameters of the model under study and would also considerably improve the external validity, on the other hand, a similar study should be considered with a more representative sample of the Ecuadorian population especially in the hospital environment in order to have a prediction formula that could be adequately used in hospital patients within the nutritional care process.

 

Conclusion

It can be concluded that the formula developed by the authors for prediction of the caloric requirement at rest in apparently healthy adults has a good concordance and accuracy with the values estimated with the indirect calorimetry method.
