Basal metabolism during recovery from severe undernutrition.
The studies reported below were made on two groups of individuals who had suffered severe restriction of food intake over periods of not less than 6 months and extending in some over I year. Group I comprised severely emaciated adults of both sexes, a high proportion of them elderly, admitted to hospital in The Hague, Holland, during the months of May and June 1945. Weight losses in this group ...
متن کاملTyrosine requirement during the rapid catch-up growth phase of recovery from severe childhood undernutrition.
The requirement for aromatic amino acids during the rapid catch-up in weight phase of recovery from severe childhood undernutrition (SCU) is not clearly established. As a first step, the present study aimed to estimate the tyrosine requirement of children with SCU during the catch-up growth phase of nutritional rehabilitation using a diet enriched in energy and proteins. Tyrosine requirement wa...
متن کاملGene expression profiling of bovine skeletal muscle in response to and during recovery from chronic and severe undernutrition.
Gene expression profiles of LM from beef cattle that underwent significant postweaning undernutrition were studied using complementary DNA (cDNA) microarrays. After 114 d of undernutrition, the RNA from LM showed 2- to 6-fold less expression of many genes from the classes of muscle structural proteins, muscle metabolic enzymes, and extracellular matrix compared with animals on a rapid growth di...

be greater than normal would also result in temporary beta-cell hyperplasia in the infant. The neonatal hypoglycaemia and adrenocortical insufficiency already demonstrated would be not unexpected. So too, the premature labour could possibly be explained by the increased corticotrophin production which has been noted to have such an action in sheep although similar evidence in human subjects is ...
متن کاملSulfur amino acid metabolism in children with severe childhood undernutrition: methionine kinetics.
BACKGROUND Children with edematous but not nonedematous severe childhood undernutrition (SCU) have lower plasma and erythrocyte-free concentrations of cysteine and methionine, which suggests a decreased availability of methionine for cysteine synthesis. We propose that methionine production and metabolism will be slower in children with edematous SCU than in those with nonedematous SCU. OBJEC...
