“…The rate of [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] C]glucose incorporation into C1 glycogen was linear in both groups (IDDM subjects, r ϭ 0.944Ϯ0.031; controls, r ϭ 0.978Ϯ0.009) and the net rates of muscle glycogen synthesis were calculated to be 108Ϯ16 mol/liter of muscle per minute in the IDDM group and 195Ϯ6 mol/liter of muscle per minute in the control group (P Ͻ 0.001). Assuming that muscle mass is equivalent to 26% body weight (14), net muscle glycogen synthesis could account for 76Ϯ16% and 69Ϯ17% of nonoxidative glucose metabolism in the IDDM and control subjects, respectively (Table I).…”

“…The Ra of palmitic acid and glycerol in plasma were calculated by the equation described by Steele (30 (2) Ra is the rate of appearance of glycerol or palmitic acid in ,gmol * kg-' -min-', IEj is the isotopic enrichment ofthe infusate (mole percent excess), and IEp is the isotopic enrichment of plasma (mole percent excess) at isotopic equilibrium.…”

“…During the course of their illness, patients with cancer often lose weight, depleting body protein and fat (1,2). Understanding the mechanisms involved in loss of body fat may be clinically important because weight loss itself is a bad prognostic sign (3,4) and the amount of remaining fat in starved individuals has been shown to correlate closely with the duration of survival (5).…”

“…Warnold et al 10 reported a mean energy intake of 1,270 kcal/day in 29 cancer patients, which, although varying greatly, was not significantly different from healthy controls. Cohn et al 13 assessed energy and protein intake related to lean body mass in 22 oncological patients and found it to be not different from 8 normal subjects, except in 6 weight-losing patients with solid tumors, where intake was lower. Bennegård et al, 14 using a 3-day food record, found a spontaneous daily food energy intake of 26.3 Ϯ 2.4 kcal/kg in 8 weight-losing cancer patients, very similar to the present results.…”
