Effect of total parenteral nutrition on whole body protein kinetics in cachectic patients with benign or malignant disease.
TL;DR: The data suggest that depleted patients synthesize proteins from intravenous amino acids less well than normals, and may need more time to synthesize these proteins.

Whole-body protein breakdown and 3-methylhistidine excretion during brief fasting, starvation, and intravenous repletion in man.
TL;DR: Analysis of 3MH excretion in relationship to nitrogen balance during refeeding suggests a complex relationship between urinary 3 MH excretion and whole-body protein metabolism that may be partly related to the degree of antecedent malnutrition.

TL;DR: Indirect calorimetric determinations revealed that oxidation of substrate during IVF was related to the proportion of D-glucose and lipid infusion, and the administration of parenteral nutrition did not specifically suppress peripheral tissue protein breakdown.

Comparison of numerical and phenotypic leukocyte changes during constant hydrocortisone infusion in normal humans with those in thermally injured patients.
Steven E. Calvano,J. D. Albert,Adrian Legaspi,B. C. Organ,Kevin J. Tracey,Stephen F. Lowry,G. T. Shires,Anthony C. Antonacci +7 more
TL;DR: The hypothesis that elevation of hydrocortisone is responsible for the lymphocyte phenotypic changes that occur in the early postburn period is supported.

Extremity amino acid metabolism during starvation and intravenous refeeding in humans
J. D. Albert,Adrian Legaspi,Glenn D. Horowitz,Kevin J. Tracey,Murray F. Brennan,Stephen F. Lowry +5 more
TL;DR: Results of this study suggest that extremity flux determinations during IVF cannot be interpreted without correction for AA availability as reflected by AA infusion rate.
