		(introductory text...)
		Introduction
		Energy requirements in normal infants and children
		Low energy intakes and growth velocities of breast-fed infants: Are there functional consequences?
		Methods to assess physical activity and the energy expended for it by infants and children

		Assessment and significance of body composition in infants and children
		Total energy expenditure of free-living infants and children obtained by the doubly-labelled water method
		Reference data for total energy expenditure in early infancy
		Basal metabolism of infants
		Energy cost of various physical activities in healthy children
		The energy requirements of growth and catch-up growth
		Energy cost of communicable diseases in infancy and childhood
		Energy-sparing mechanisms: reductions in body mass, BMR and activity: their relative importance and priority in undernourished infants and children
		The desirable upper limits of energy intake in childhood: Short- and long-term consequences
		Long-term developmental implications of motor maturation and physical activity in infancy in a nutritionally at risk population
		Temperament, activity and behavioral development of infants and children
		The cultural regulation of infant and child activities
		Short- and long-term effects of low or restricted energy intakes on the activity of infants and children
		The relationship between undernutrition, activity levels and development in young children
