AIMS OF STUDY The aim of this study is to investigate whether ingestion of curcumin will prevent hepatic insulin resistance (assessed by homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR)) induced by short-term oral glucocorticoid (prednisolone) administration in overweight and obese
Neonatal hypoglycemia understood as a reduction in plasma glucose can result in long-term neurological damage. Hypoglycemia is one of the most frequent metabolic alterations of the newborn. About 30% of all newborns are at risk of hypoglycemia. The neonatal population at risk is mainly children of
Patients recruited to the study will be randomised to one of 3 groups.
Group 1 will receive standard care as per our current practice. This includes fasting from solids for 6 hours prior to surgery and clear fluids for up to 2 hours prior to surgery.
Group 2 will receive a carbohydrate (CHO) drink

Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) is a major complication in laparoscopic gynecologic surgery. There are limited data and conflicting results from previous studies related to the types of intravenous fluid and a reduction in PONV. The incidence of nausea is slightly greater than the incidence
To assess whether enteral nutrition fomulas based either on fat or glucose influence glucose homeostasis differently in critically ill medical patients. All patients are admitted to a tertiary ICU and require mechanical ventilation.
Resting energy expenditure is assessed at baseline in the fasting
Background: In January 2012, the US Food and Drug Administration approved a once-weekly form of exenatide, Bydureon, for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Evidence from clinical trials suggested that Bydureon improves glucose control with low risk of hypoglycemia. Bydureon does not require
Fluid therapy is aimed to compensate for fasting which is required for surgery, to meet the ongoing fluid losses and to maintain electrolyte balance during surgery. Fluid deficit of a healthy child who is not fed parenterally may be estimated by multiplying hourly maintenance requirement for fluid
