[Decreased catabolism after toxico-septic aggression by administration of injectable amino acids]. / Scaderea catabolismului dupa agresiunea toxico-septica prin administrarea de aminoacizi injectabili.

ABSTRACT

Two comparative lots were established, of 48 and 44 patients respectively with toxico-septic syndromes, renal failure of the hypercatabolic type, that had received parenteral food for a period of between 3 and 11 days. The first group received only glucose while the second also had injectable aminoacids. In the first group was noted a daily rate of blood urea variation (r) of 1,65 mg% and a good nitrogen elimination. In the second group was noted an r of --8,13mg% (pless than 0,001) and a more rapid improvement of the clinical condition. Next to the fall in the absolute nitrogen elimination (p greater than 0,05), the nitrogen balance, computed at 36% incorporation of the administered nitrogen, was significantly improved in the second group (p greater than 0,01), demonstrating the lowering of the metabolic rate under perfusion with aminoacids.
