The Schofield Equation is a method of estimating the basal metabolic rate (BMR) of adult men and women published in 1985. [1]This is the equation used by the WHO in their technical report series. [2]
The most common estimation of IBW is by the Devine formula; other models exist and have been noted to give similar results. [7] Other methods used in estimating the ideal body weight are body mass index and the Hamwi method. The IBW is not the perfect fat measurement, as it does not show the fat or muscle percentage in one's body.
Though the U.S. may be leading the charge, one in eight adults around the world now live with obesity. And many more ( 43% ) are overweight. Percent of women who are overweight in 2022 (by region)

The International Bureau of Weights and Measures (French: Bureau International des Poids et Mesures, BIPM) is an intergovernmental organisation, through which its 64 member-states act on measurement standards in areas including chemistry, ionising radiation, physical metrology, as well as the International System of Units (SI) and Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).
In the study of age-structured population growth, probably one of the most important equations is the Euler–Lotka equation.Based on the age demographic of females in the population and female births (since in many cases it is the females that are more limited in the ability to reproduce), this equation allows for an estimation of how a population is growing.
