Background Estimation of resting energy expenditure (REE) is essential in planning nutrition support. Several equations are used for this estimation in the clinical setting. The purpose of this study was to compare the predictive accuracy of existing equations for REE in patients with cerebral infarct during acute care. Methods We assessed the Harris–Benedict, Mifflin, Owen, Japanese simplified, Wang, and Cunningham equations. The Owen and Japanese simplified equations use sex and weight as explanatory variables, the Harris–Benedict and …
