Does adipose tissue cellularity or the age of onset of obesity influence the response to short-term inpatient treatment of obese women?
1978
Ashwell, Margaret | Durrant, Merril | Garrow, J.S.
Extract: Thirty-three obese women were admitted as inpatients to a metabolic ward. They had an average intake of 3.35 MJ (800 kcal) daily for three weeks. Fat biopsies were taken at three subcutaneous sites. Average fat cell mass (CM) and apparent fat cell number (FCN) were calculated. There was no significant correlation between adipose tissue cellularity (CM or FCN) and total weight loss and the age of onset of obesity. Resting metabolic rate is a better indicator of short-term weight loss under controlled inpatient conditions.
