1. 1. Perioperative glucose control

   Författare :Christina Blixt; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : Trauma or surgery elicit a physiological stress response, which among others induces insulin resistance. It could be described as a state where the biological response to a given dose of insulin is reduced, and is associated with an altered glucose metabolism, as well as a disturbed lipid and protein metabolism and dysfunctional immune, inflammatory and coagulation systems.

3. 2. Regulation of glucose transport and insulin-stimulated GLUT4 translocation in skeletal muscle

   Författare :Jorge E Rincón Viatela; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :skeletal muscle; glucose transport; insulin resistance; hyperglycaemia; steroid hormones; smoking; nicotine;

   Sammanfattning : Skeletal muscle represents about 40% of body mass and accounts for at least 80% of glucose disposal under insulin-stimulated conditions. Furthermore, GLUT4 transport protein is the primary component of the glucose transport system in skeletal muscle. LÄS MER

4. 3. Insulin-like growth factor-I deficiency, insulin sensitivity, and glucose metabolism

   Författare :Klas Ekström; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : In children and adolescents, growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) act in concert to stimulate linear growth; however, the effects on glucose metabolism are in opposition. GH increases insulin resistance by lipolysis. LÄS MER

5. 4. Effects of perioperative nutrition on insulin action in postoperative metabolism

   Författare :Mattias Soop; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Surgery; glucose clamping technique; insulin resistance; glucose metabolism; protein metabolism; recovery;

   Sammanfattning : Surgical operations are a fundamental part of contemporary treatment of disease. For example, 43 % of in-patients in Sweden undergo a surgical operation. Surgery is not yet without significant risks. Infectious complication rates following abdominal surgery, for instance, remain at 9-25 %. LÄS MER

7. 5. The sites and mechanisms of postoperative insulin resistance

   Författare :Jonas Nygren; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Surgery; Insulin resistance; Glucosemetabolism; Glucose clamping technique; Gastric emptying; Immobilization; Preoperative fasting; ICF-I; Hospital stay; Stableisotopes ISBN 9;

   Sammanfattning : In Sweden with nine million inhabitants, 450,000 operations (outpatients excluded) are performed every year resulting in 2,250,000 treatment days in hospital. Surgical operations are part of the treatment for 44% of all patients admitted to hospital care occupying 24% of all hospital beds. LÄS MER
