Effects of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition on Skeletal Muscle Genomics

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Muscle Loss

• Registration Number: NCT05080816
• Lead Sponsor: Göteborg University

Brief Summary

The study investigates effects related to muscle protein metabolism at provision of Parenteral or enteral nutrition

Detailed Description

Randomized study investigation alterations in muscle protein metabolism at provision of parenteral or enteral (oral drink) nutrition. The study uses a genomic/transcriptomic/proteomic approach to evaluate factors related to activation of skeletal muscle protein synthesis and protein degradation. Patients scheduled for major gastrointestinal surgery are included. Muscle specimens are collected during surgery.
