Protein metabolism following injury.

Fig. 1 Comparisons in two burned patients between the rate of catabolism ofplasma albumin and y G globulin (as glkg body weight) and the basal metabolic rate (BMR) as percentages above the expected normal value. The patient treated in the cool environment had a burned area covering 30% of the body surface, 10% being full-thickness skin loss; the patient treated in the warm environment had a bur...

Blood serum protein-bound carbohydrate after injury.

In earlier publications (Keyser, 1949, 1950) we reported increases in the level of a substance giving the tryptophane-perchloric acid reaction (Cohen, 1944; Seibert, Pfaff, and Seibert, 1948) in the blood serum of six burn cases. No attempt was made at the time to identify the reacting substance, which is generally assumed to be a polysaccharide. The present investigation was undertaken to find...

Cerebral metabolic adaptation and ketone metabolism after brain injury.

The developing central nervous system has the capacity to metabolize ketone bodies. It was once accepted that on weaning, the 'post-weaned/adult' brain was limited solely to glucose metabolism. However, increasing evidence from conditions of inadequate glucose availability or increased energy demands has shown that the adult brain is not static in its fuel options. The objective of this review ...
