Proteins, Peptides, and Amino Acids in Enteral Nutrition
Having examined the new, exciting information about the role of the intestine in the utilization of proteins and their products of digestion, the focus turns to the consequences that catabolic stress and immunologic stimulation have on the qualitative and quantitative aspects of the protein/amino acid metabolism. These aspects are considered with relation to the support of body protein and amino acid homeostasis and requirements in patients with injury, severe infection, gastrointestinal malfunction, cancers and renal disease. Finally, as there is clearly a knowledge gap in this area of clinical/enteral nutrition, the opportunities for future research are highlighted. Written by leading nutritional scientists and clinical investigators, this publication will help practitioners as well as clinical and basic scientists to understand the opportunities enteral nutrition offers in the clinical management of patients.
Advances in Nutritional Research
The third volume of Advances in Nutritional Research continues the precedent set in previous volumes of providing authoritative reviews on the current state of knowledge with respect to major topics of ongoing nutritional research. This series is designed to be of value to investigators engaged in fundamental research as well as to those involved in its application to problems in human and animal nutrition. This volume contains three chapters on recent developments in research on inorganic elements, including a review, by F. H. Nielsen, of the evidence for a requirement for additional trace elements; a conspectus, by C. E. Casey and K. M. Hambidge, on the occurrence of trace element deficien...
Biographical Memoirs
Biographic Memoirs Volume 91 contains the biographies of deceased members of the National Academy of Sciences and bibliographies of their published works. Each biographical essay was written by a member of the Academy familiar with the professional career of the deceased. For historical and bibliographical purposes, these volumes are worth returning to time and again.
Amino Acids
Abstract: The proceedings of a 1982 conference on newer aspects of research in the application of amino acid biochemistry to clinical medicine are presented in 28 authoritative papers and 20 communication research reports for researchers and practitioners. The papers and communications are organized among 5 principal themes: the physiology of whole body amino acid metabolism; the intermediary metabolism of amino acids; amino acid interrelationships; amino acid-organ interrelationships (liver, muscle, brain, gastrointestinal); and clinical aspects of amino acid metabolism (covering general considerations and the special considerations of malnutrition, cancer, renal failure, and liver failure) (wz).
