The burn injury probably represents the largest stimulus for muscle protein catabolism. This state is characterized by an accelerated catabolism of the lean or skeletal mass that results in a clinical negative balance of nitrogen and muscle wasting.

Introduction: The burn injury probably represents the largest stimulus for muscle protein catabolism. This state is characterized by an accelerated catabolism of the lean or skeletal mass that results in a clinical negative balance of nitrogen and muscle wasting. The determination of an appropriate value for protein intake is essential, since it is positively related to the nitrogen balance (NB) and accordingly...

Resumo da tese: Introdução: A lesão por queimadura representa provavelmente o maior estímulo para o catabolismo muscular proteico. Este estado é caracterizado por um catabolismo acelerado de massa magra ou massa esquelética que resulta clinicamente num balanço negativo de azoto e gasto muscular. A determinação de um valor adequado para a ingestão proteica é fundamental, uma vez que está positivamente relacionad...
