Abstract:
Whole-room calorimeter is one of the gold standards for measuring energy expenditure, which is of great significance in studies on energy metabolism. It can be used to evaluate energy metabolism of different diets, physical activities and lifestyle in healthy or disease states as well as be applied into intervention plan development and efficacy evaluation of nutrition treatment in metabolic diseases, especially in obesity and anti-obesity treatment. It can also play a role in exploring the mechanism of metabolic disease when combined with metabolism related genes and molecular pathways. Here we aim to review the researches on whole-room calorimeter in energy expenditure measurement and obesity.
