Physiology of the Weight Loss Plateau after Calorie Restriction, GLP-1 Receptor Agonism, and Bariatric Surgery

The paper uses a mathematical model to simulate weight loss trajectories under different interventions, finding that RYGB and GLP-1 agonists weaken appetite feedback and create larger persistent effects than calorie restriction.

A data-driven approach to quantifying meal characteristics influencing energy intake

The paper quantifies how meal characteristics like energy density and eating rate affect energy intake across different dietary patterns in adults.

Carbs versus fat: does it really matter for maintaining lost weight?

The paper analyzes diet composition effects on energy expenditure and finds no significant differences, with reported effects attributed to flawed assumptions and data adjustments.

Methodologic Issues in Doubly Labeled Water Measurements of Energy Expenditure During Very Low-Carbohydrate Diets

This study compares energy expenditure measurements using doubly labeled water (DLW) and respiratory chambers during very low-carbohydrate diets, finding that DLW overestimates energy expenditure when not adjusted for respiratory quotient changes.

Objective versus Self-Reported Energy Intake Changes During Low-Carbohydrate and Low-Fat Diets

This study compares objective energy intake changes calculated via a mathematical model with self-reported 24-hour recalls during low-carbohydrate and low-fat diets, finding greater early calorie restriction with low-carbohydrate diets but no long-term differences.
