Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) continues to pose serious challenge to orthopaedic adult reconstructive surgeons, even after recent advances in anesthesia and improvements in perioperative care. Preoperative carbohydrate loading has been well studied in non-arthroplasty surgical fields. It

Scientific context: Arteriosclerosis is a chronic pathogenic inflammatory-fibro-proliferative process of large and medium-sized arteries that results in the progressive formation of fibrous plaques which in turn, impair the blood flow in vessels. These lesions can either promote an occlusive

Recent research suggests that attention to nutrition before operation leads to a speedier recovery through moderating the metabolic responses to surgery, improving well-being, decreasing post-operative insulin resistance and attenuation loss of lean body mass. On other hand there are fasting

OBJECTIVES: Specific Aim 1: To test, in a small clinical trial of 30 pre-menopausal African American women, whether increased intake of dietary fiber embedded in a 12 week weight loss intervention will reduce VAT accumulation more than a standard weight loss intervention. Hypothesis 1: Women in the

The concept of Colonic Adaptation(CA) to regular carbohydrates has been linked mainly to lactose disaccharide(galactose,glucose) and lactulose(galactose, fructose), a manufactured derivative of lactose. CA is achieved in both cases by short term regular consumption of the targeted sugar which is not

A total of 22 healthy and regularly active physical-education male students from various sports disciplines volunteered to participate in this study. Potential participants were initially screened through telephone interviews based on the inclusion criteria: 18-40 years of age, BMI less than 25

The aim of the study is to investigate how dietary fibre combinations affects gut physiology, particularly colonic gas production. Comparisons will be made between a single fermentable fibre (inulin), a non-fermentable fibre (psyllium) and a combination of the two. The study will also explore

This study is expected to start in January 2014 and be completed by December 2014. Ten exercise trained male athletes (18-35 years) will complete a repeated testing protocol under 2 experimental conditions in a systematically rotated blind crossover design: BSD and isoenergetic carbohydrate control,
