Comparisons between the newly built formula and commonly used formulas with different combinations of PBD and TBSA.

Note: Data are presented as means ± SD. MEE, measured resting energy expenditure. The letter “a” is used to indicate the results of the comparisons between MEE and non-linear, linear or Milner estimating formula, the letter “b” is used to indicate the results of the comparisons between mean MEE and Carlson, Xie, or Curreri formulas. * indicates that the result does not lie in the range of ±20% for MEE.Comparisons between the newly built formula and commonly used formulas with different combinations of PBD and TBSA.
