Metabolic variables versus BMI and gender.

Data are reported in terms the average value at the steady state of volume of carbon dioxide production (VCO2), volume of oxygen consumption (VO2), respiratory exchange ratio (RER), heart rate (HR), and energy expenditure rate (EER) in comparison to a subject’s BMI classification and gender. Marginal means ± standard deviation for BMI classifications are grouped using a Fisher Pairwise comparison. A p-value for the ANOVA test comparing each metabolic variable with BMI class is also reported, with (*) indicating statistically significant difference.
