In addition to molecular surface area and OHgroup's surface area, the substituent equivalentwas pointed out to be necessary to be used as adescriptive variable.

Pilot study of the metabolic equivalents cost in some therapeutic exercises of stroke patients who can walk independently;

Methods With the data from the provincial nutrition and health survey in Zhejiang,2002,the conditions of the physical activities of 3226 adults from 16 counties/districts selected by multistage clustered randomized sampling were evaluated using a MET(metabolic equivalents)-based approach,and analyzed using the one way ANOVA test.

Physical activity evaluation:metabolic equivalent intensity levels and evaluation of different physical activity;

Methods 206 old college members were selected and divided into three groups based on their exercise metabolic equivalent.

Objective: To compare the metabolic equivalent (METs) derived from Bruce treadmill protocol with those calculated from measured VO_2, and recommend a predictive procedure to establish individual METs for post myocardial infarction (PMI) patients at different stages of rehabilitation.

[Objective] To compare the rationality of Heart rate(HR),Oxygen uptake per minute perkillogram(VO_(2)) and metabolic equivalent(METS) in experiment,and select the most important index from them.

The data including PSG(AHI,SaO_2) and treadmile exercice test(METs)was ananysised.
