Cellular energy utilization and molecular origin of standard metabolic rate in mammals
D. F. S. Rolfe,Guy C. Brown +1 more
TL;DR: The differences in standard metabolic rate between animals of different body mass and phylogeny appear to be due to proportionate changes in the whole of energy metabolism.

Regression Using Fractional Polynomials of Continuous Covariates: Parsimonious Parametric Modelling
TL;DR: Fractional polynomials as discussed by the authors are a family of curves, whose power terms are restricted to a small predefined set of integer and non-integer values, whose powers are selected so that conventional polynomial are a subset of the family.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantitative Laws in Metabolism and Growth
TL;DR: The work reviewed in this paper is aimed at establishing connections between two fundamental aspects of living organisms, their metabolism and growth.

Geometric method for measuring body surface area: A height-weight formula validated in infants, children, and adults†
TL;DR: Estimates of body surface area were made based on measurement of 81 subjects, ranging from premature infants to adults, and closer agreement was obtained with the equations and nomograms of Body, Brody, Faber and Melcher, and Sendroy and Cecchini, although minor deviations were noted in some age ranges.
