Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To elucidate the effect of preoperative supplementation of carbohydrate and branched-chain amino acids on postoperative insulin resistance in patients undergoing hepatic resection, we set a randomized trial.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Twenty-six patients with hepatectomy due to a live tumor were prospectively randomized to receive a preoperative supplementation with carbohydrate and branched-chain amino acids-enriched nutrient or not.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

1

receive a preoperative supplementation with carbohydrate and branched-chain amino acids-enriched nutrient

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Aminolevan EN

Intervention Type DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

The present study used carbohydrate and BCAA-enriched soft-powder nutrient-mixture for preoperative supplementation. Supplementation with Aminolevan EN (100 g per day) started at two weeks prior to the surgery under the careful monitoring of compliance.

2

receive a preoperative supplementation without carbohydrate and branched-chain amino acids-enriched nutrient
