Hypoalbuminemia, a frequent finding in cancer patients, can be demonstrated in the tumor-bearing rat. In actuality, the circulating amount of albumin is maintained in tumor-bearing rats, although total body water and plasma volume are increased. The fractional degradation rate of newly synthesized
We investigated the effects of malnutrition and refeeding on albumin distribution and metabolism in patients undergoing treatment for anorexia nervosa. Using autologous 125I-labelled albumin, we measured the fractional catabolic rate and calculated the relative sizes of the plasma and extravascular
OBJECTIVE
Anorexia nervosa (AN) is associated with marked decreases in caloric intake and a corresponding reduction in body weight due to abnormal self body image. Although counterintuitive, hypoalbuminemia and vitamin deficiencies are not expected consequences of this disorder. Etiologic
Hepatic albumin synthesis, serum albumin turnover, and hepatic albumin messenger RNA (mRNA) content were evaluated in mice bearing a transplantable low differentiated tumor (MCG 101). Results obtained on tumor-bearing mice were compared with results obtained from non-tumor-bearing animals that were
The rate of albumin synthesis and the serum levels of amino acids were measured in three patients suffering from anorexia nervosa. In comparison to the control group the rate of albumin synthesis was lower for the two patients with hypoalbuminemia and the serum levels of valine, isoleucine and
Anorexia nervosa is a difficult disease to treat effectively. Inpatient treatment in facilities with specialized expertise heightens the chance for success. Patients with the most severe degrees of anorexia nervosa are especially in need of hospitalization. Authorization from insurers can be a
BACKGROUND
Very few studies have investigated the relationship between malnutrition and psychological symptoms in Anorexia Nervosa (AN). They have used only body weight or body mass index (BMI) for the nutritional assessment and did not always report on medication, or if they did, it was not
Skeletal muscle function, body composition (total body nitrogen and total body potassium) and standard parameters of nutritional assessment were measured in six severely depleted patients with primary anorexia nervosa, both on admission and during oral refeeding. The function of the adductor
To discriminate between the effects of infection and of anorexia associated with infection, liver albumin synthesis was measured in well-fed rats, in rats injected with live Escherichia coli and in pair-fed rats at different stages of the inflammatory response (1, 6 and 10 days after infection)
Oxidative stress markers seem to be higher in patients with anorexia nervosa (AN) than healthy controls, but the potentially beneficial effects of weight gain is not known. We calculated random effects standardised mean differences (SMDs) as effect size measures of oxidative stress marker changes
BACKGROUND
Anorexia and subsequent weight loss increase the risk of death in long term care (LTC) residents. In patients who fail to respond to nutritional intervention, orexigenic drugs are sometimes prescribed. There is limited data regarding the safety and efficacy of these drugs in older
A correlation between anorexia and brain levels of serotonin and tryptophan (TRP) has been reported in tumor-bearing animals. In the present investigation 45 patients with various types of cancer and 13 control subjects were studied. Prior to the study the patients had received no antineoplastic
