  1. 1. Initiation of Protein Biosynthesis in Skeletal Muscles at Feeding

    Författare :Britt-Marie Iresjö; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Protein synthesis; Translation initiation; amino acids; Snat 2; MHC2A; IGF-I;

    Sammanfattning : Background and aim. Artificial nutrition by intravenous feeding has for decades indicated less than optimal support of whole-body protein metabolism and balance during some treatment conditions. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Amino acid and protein turnover in human skeletal muscle

    Författare :Rokhsareh Farrah Vesali; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Critically ill patients are characterised by a severe net protein catabolism. The rate of muscle protein loss is in the magnitude of 10% per week. A consequence of muscle wasting is increased weakness, which is associated with high rates of mortality and morbidity. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Perioperative nutrition and insulin resistance

    Författare :Monika Svanfeldt; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Insulin sensitivity; insulin resistance; hyperinsulinaemic normoglycaemic clamps; wholebody glucose kinetics; whole-body protein kinetics; indirect calorimetry; surgery; carbohydrate loading; hypocaloric nutrition; bed rest and TPN;

    Sammanfattning : Surgical trauma induces a catabolic response with development of insulin resistance as a central and well-characterised feature. In insulin resistance, the stimulating effect of insulin on peripheral glucose uptake and the suppressing effect of insulin on endogenous glucose release are decreased, resulting in hyperglycaemia.

  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. Energy expenditure and substrate utilization during critical illness

    Författare :Martin Sundström Rehal; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Critical illness leads to major alterations in metabolism. The net result is a state where catabolism predominates over anabolism. The associated loss of lean body mass is significant and potentially harmful. It is commonly held that providing calories and protein from nutrition may attenuate this response. LÄS MER
