...Yvette C. Luiking; Martijn Poeze; Nicolaas E. Deutz Arginine deficiency in sepsis may impair nitric oxide (NO) production for local perfusion and add to the catabolic state. In contrast, excessive NO production has been related to global haemodynamic instability. Therefore, the aim of the present...

... levels, implying a loss of catabolic tone. Concomitantly, most effects seen on amino acids flux after hormone administration on the previous day disappeared. 6. It is concluded that, in the acute catabolic state, both recombinant human insulin-like growth factor-1 and recombinant human growth hormone can...

The salt complex of l -(+)-ornithine and α-ketoglutarate (2-oxoglutarate) has recently been proposed for the treatment of patients in the catabolic state. As yet, it is unclear which of the two substrates (ornithine or α...
