Signs and symptoms include a high-pitched cry, intellectual disability, distinctive facial features, small head size, low birth weight and weak muscle tone in infancy. Most individuals have difficulty with language.
Basal metabolic rate (BMR) is the minimal rate of energy expenditure per unit time by endothermic animals at rest. (McNab, B. K. 1997). On the Utility of Uniformity in the Definition of Basal Rate of Metabolism.Physiol.Zool.Vol.70; Metabolism refers to the processes that the body needs to function.asal metabolic rate (BMR) is the minimal rate of energy expenditure per unit time by endothermic animals at rest.

This equation allows us to estimate our basal metabolic rate (BMR). We can multiply our BMR by 1.25-1.7* to estimate our calorie maintenance. To run with our previous example: 150 pounds and 34% bodyfat: (1-.34) x 150 = 99 pounds LBM. 370 + (9.82 x 99) = 1342 BMR. 1342 x 1.3 = 1745 calories.
