About this study

All consecutive subjects with type 2 diabetes referred from June 2012 to December 2019 were eligible. They were excluded if data on ongoing therapy, anthropometric or laboratory parameters, or measured REE was not available or if presenting with conditions known to affect indirect calorimetry.

Who can participate

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patients with type 2 diabetes
  • Available resting energy expenditure assessed by indirect calorimetry

Exclusion criteria

  • data on ongoing therapy (e.g. lifestyle measures with or without approved drugs), anthropometric or laboratory parameters (including white blood count, estimated glomerular filtration rate, TSH), or REE assessed by the means of indirect calorimetry could not be retrieved
  • presenting with conditions known to affect indirect calorimetry (e.g. patients with strenuous exercise on the day before, asymptomatic patients with severe chronic kidney disease (eGFR < 30 ml/min/ 1.73 m2), increased white blood count, or subnormal TSH)
