@BillOccham0 This is a reconstructed figure using data from the linked paper below. Tissue mass x mass specific O2 consumption by PET divided by whole-body VO2. BAT mass calculated as volume of FTHA uptake (likely overestimates). Muscle mass estimated usin
@LoganTownsend86 @DanielJDrucker @marcusabanks @PNASNews Thank goodness for Dr. Drucker's cautious assessment. For context: BAT mass (in healthy ind.): ~55 - 221 g BAT VO2 @ room temp: ~0.39 - 1.55 mL/min = 0.16 - 0.52 %EE BAT VO2 in mild cold: ~0.66 - 2.

BAT is a minor contributor (vs. deep muscles) to cold-induced thermogenesis. Even in the absence of shivering!! https://t.co/adUndFVGW5
