U.S., Nov. 19 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07233174) titled 'Postprandial Thermogenesis in Obese Adolescents: Effect of Meal Calorie Content' on Nov. 14.
Brief Summary: The prevention and management of pediatric obesity require a thorough understanding and consideration of the different components of energy balance (i.e., intake and expenditure) and their interactions. Total energy expenditure (TEE) consists of resting metabolism (RM), energy expenditure induced by physical activity (EEPA), and dietary thermogenesis (DTE). While RM and EEPA are the two main contributors to TEE, DTE is often overlooked, even though it can account for around 10% of our daily energy expenditure. In fact, few stu...
