Description
The body mass excess with respect to the healthy reference population, HRP, is defined as BME โ m/mยฐ. A balanced BME is BMEยฐ=1.0. Considering a height of 1.7 m, overweight (BMI=25) is reached at a weight gain of 25 % (BME=1.25); obesity and severe obesity (BMI=30 and 35) are reached at a weight gain of 50 % and 75 % (BME=1.5 and 1.75, respectively).
Abbreviation: BME
