| Popis: | Excretion of polyamines first increases and then decreases in patients with multiple trauma receiving total parenteral nutrition (TPN). To separate the effects of trauma and TPN on polyamine excretion, we studied 12 patients with multiple trauma and 14 patients after surgery for colorectal malignancy. Patients were randomized to receive either TPN or hypocaloric glucose infusion. Urinary excretion of total and free polyamines, putrescine (PU), spermidine (SPD), and spermine (SP), and their metabolites, N1-acetylspermidine (N1-AcSPD) and N8-acetylspermidine (N8-AcSPD), and energy and nitrogen balance were measured. Polyamine excretion, excluding SP, markedly increased after trauma and surgery, exceeding the normal values by twofold to 10-fold. In patients receiving TPN, the excretion of total polyamines was 48% higher (P < .01), PU was 34% higher (P < .05), SPD was 35% higher (P < .05), and SP was 350% higher (P < .05) than in patients receiving hypocaloric glucose. Urinary excretion of SP was only 17% of the reference value during hypocaloric glucose (P < .05), but was normal during TPN. The difference in polyamine excretion between nutrition groups was more pronounced when normalized for nitrogen or energy balance. Patients receiving TPN were more hypermetabolic than patients receiving hypocaloric glucose (resting energy expenditure, 1.36 +/- 0.06 [SE] and 1.16 +/- 0.04 times predicted values, respectively; P < .025). Statistically, energy expenditure could explain the difference in polyamine excretion between nutrition groups.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) |
