Abstract

We investigated the hypothesis that peripubertal children born to obese parents have a lower 24-h energy expenditure during "weight maintenance" and/or in response to overfeeding when compared with children born to normal-weight parents. Sixteen Southwestern American Indians (12.4 +/- 1.4 yr, 55.5 +/- 14.1 kg, 30 +/- 8% body fat), eight offspring from obese parents [body mass index (BMI) = 40 +/- 6 kg/m2], and eight offspring from thin parents (BMI = 24 +/- 3 kg/m2) were admitted for 8 days to our metabolic ward. The 24-h energy expenditure was measured under eucaloric conditions and on the 3rd day of progressive overfeeding of a mixed diet, i.e., 150, 200, and 200% of weight maintenance on day 1, 2, and 3 of overfeeding. At base line, offspring of obese parents were heavier (64 +/- 15 vs. 47 +/- 6 kg, P less than 0.05) and tended to be fatter (34 +/- 8 vs. 26 +/- 9% body fat, P = 0.07), with a higher absolute fat mass (22 +/- 9 vs. 13 +/- 4 kg body fat, P less than 0.05) when compared with offspring of thin parents. During both normo- and over-feeding, the larger part of the variance in 24-h energy expenditure in the conditions of a respiratory chamber was accounted for by differences in fat-free body mass (54 and 68%, respectively), whereas differences in the level of spontaneous physical activity accounted for another 19 and 21%.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
