In the calculation of total energy expenditure (TEE) in two publications (Yamada et al. 2009, 2013) a serious mistake has slipped in and therefore needs to be rectified. The correct TEE is 1.2 times higher than the published miscalculated TEE. The CO2 production rate (rCO2), and TEE were miscalculated by the DLW method previously as:
$$ r{\text{CO}}_{2} = 0.4554 \times {\text{TBW}}\;({\text{g}}) \times \left( {1.007k_{\text{o}} - 1.041k_{\text{d}} } \right). $$
