Brief Summary

To our knowledge no study has evaluated neither feasible methods for the assessment of anthropometric profile nor indirect methods to estimate energy expenditure (EE) for adapted athletes. The primary aim is to develop and validate new RMR prediction models, for the estimation of the resting metabolic rate from anthropometric variables in young Mexican Paralympic athletes; our second objective is to evaluate the agreement between RMR and the prediction models of Cunningham, Harris-Benedict, Henry, Valencia, Chun, Nightingale \& Gorgey, FAO/WHO, Mifflin, Müller, Owen, and our own models. A comparative cross-sectional quantitative study was designed. Participants report to the testing laboratory only once for data collection. The Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology criteria guidelines for cross-sectional research (STROBE) is followed in the design/reporting of this study.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Indirect Calorimetry

  The RMR was measured by IC using a portable device (Breezing®, Arizona, USA), which was calibrated before each test and has been described as a valid and reliable system (Xiaojun et al. 2015). RMR was calculated by breath oxygen consumption (O2 in mL·min-1), minute by minute, using the Weir equation (1949), while participants remained in a sitting position for ≈15 to 20 minutes.

• Anthropometry

  The anthropometric measurements were performed by certified level 3 anthropometrists following the guidelines of the International Society for the Advancement of Kinanthropometry, ISAK (Stewart et al, 2011).

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 10 Years - 59 Years
• Sex: all
• Healthy Volunteers: Yes
• Age Groups: Child (0-17), Adult (18-64)
• Sampling Method: Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Mexican Paralympic swimmers from the national and the state adapted swimming team.

You may qualify if:

• i) swimmers who report to the assessment area with a fasting period of 6 to 8 hours, and at least 12 hours after their last exercise routine; ii) swimmers who have not consumed alcohol or any stimulant for the last 48 hours (e.g., coffee, tea, chocolate, carbonated drinks, energy drinks, supplements); iii) swimmers who has contested at least in one of the last two swimming competitions, including World Championships and Paralympic Games

You may not qualify if:

• i) fail to complete the indirect calorimetry test after two attempts; ii) attend to the evaluation area without the appropriate clothing or without following the instructions for fasting, exercise, and feeding prior to the evaluations; iii) swimmers who at the time of the evaluations did not give written consent (parental consent in case of under 18 years old) for procedures or data release for research purposes.
