- Abstract
Introduction: Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is an increasingly prevalent worldwide health condition and is a major part of metabolic disorder. The metabolic alterations in DM significantly impact resting metabolic rate (RMR). This study provides comprehensive information on the current understanding of the influence of RMR in DM, which will be helpful for researchers and policymakers to plan and implement preventive measures. Materials and Methods: The relevant articles needed for this literature review were identified through online databases such as Google Scholar, PubMed, Elsevier, Cochrane and DOAJ. Studies that relate to Resting Metabolic Rate and Diabetes Mellitus and/or its related Complications; English language; Full-text articles, and finding that was between the years 2011 to 2021 were included, whereas review articles, thesis and book chapters were excluded. Keywords such as "resting metabolic rate", "basal metabolic rate", "diabetes mellitus", "type 2 diabetes", "resting energy expenditure" and "complications" were used. The searches yielded 835 articles. Results: This review included 11 articles in which the influence of RMR in DM was evaluated. The majority (8/11) of the papers reported higher RMR levels in T2DM patients compared to normal individuals. However, there are no significant predictors to determine the metabolic state of an individual with DM. Conclusion: In summary, RMR levels in diabetic patients were higher, and RMR correlated well with the severity of T2DM-related complications. Measurement of RMR using simple Bioelectrical Impedance Analyzers (BIA) in diabetic clinics, mainly in places lacking resources, can aid as an easy and inexpensive screening method to detect the risk of diabetic complications in uncomplicated T2DM patients.
