چکیده

The plasma cortisol level of patients anaesthetized for 1 hour with thiopentone and nitrous oxide was found to remain unchanged. During body surface surgery it rose slightly, and during intra-abdominal surgery it rose to more thap double the resting value. The blood sugar under the same circumstances changed in a qualitatively similar manner and the free fatty acids appeared to fall during anaesthesia without surgery, changed litde during body surface surgery, and rose during intra-abdominal surgery. Plasma insulin during both types of surgery showed no significant change.

The Effects of Simvastatin on Free Fatty Acids Profile in Fructose-fed Insulin Resistant Rats

Backgrounds: Type 2 diabetes mellitus is the most common metabolic disease and free fatty acids, as signaling molecules, can play a crucial role in the development of it. Different free fatty acids, through various cell membrane receptors, induce different effects on metabolic pathways and thereby affect insulin sensitivity. Simvastatin is a cholesterol decreasing drug prescrib...

Effects of spinal anaesthesia and surgery on carbohydrate and fat metabolism in man.

The effects of spinal anaesthesia and surgery on carbohydrate and fat metabolism were studied in thirty patients by determining plasma concentrations of human growth hormone (HGH), insulin, blood glucose and free fatty acids (FFA). Hyperbaric spinal anaesthesia with lignocaine or quatacaiae alone and subsequent surgery did not influence the plasma HGH, insulin or FFA levels. Mean blood glucose ...

Equine stress responses to anaesthesia.

Information on equine stress responses to anaesthesia and surgery is sparse. Six ponies were anaesthetized for 2 h with halothane and no surgery was performed. Plasma concentrations of glucose, lactate, non-esterified fatty acids, cortisol, insulin, catecholamines and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) were measured. The results were compared with those obtained in the same group of ponies over...

The Association of Omentin Gene Expression in Visceral and Subcutaneous Adipose Tissues with Plasma Fatty Acids Profile and Dietary Fatty Acids

Introduction: Omentin, an adipokine, with anti-inflammatory effects reduces insulin resistance, and can hence, play an important role in prevention of cardiovascular disease and diabetes. The present study aimed to investigate the association of plasma and dietary fatty acids with gene expression of omentin in visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissues. Materials and Methods: Visceral and subcut...
