Abstract

In a previous study, we analyzed the roles of the estimated basal energy expenditure (EBEE) calculated by the Harris-Benedict equation, caloric intake (CI), total burn surface area (TBSA), body temperature (Temp) and number of post-burn days (PBD) in order to estimate the resting energy expenditure (EE) of burn patients. By multiple regression analysis we found that the measured EE (MEE) is best approximated by the following formula: -4343 + (10.5 x %TBSA) + (0.23 x CI) + (0.84 x EBEE) + (114 x Temp (degree C)) - (4.5 x PBD), r = 0.82, p less than 0.001, (Toronto formula (TF)). To validate this, 10 patients with a mean TBSA of 49.1 +/- 5.5% had their resting MEE done by indirect calorimetry when fed either by the TF or by 2 x EBEE. The caloric intake when on 2 x EBEE was 3260 +/- 45 kcal/day which significantly exceeded the MEE (2765 +/- 101 kcal/day, p less than 0.001). The caloric intake when on the TF was 2542 +/- 52 kcal/day and matches the MEE which was 2537 +/- 86 kcal/day (NS). These results show that the TF matches the MEE very closely. With the addition of a factor of activity for the 24-hr EE, it can be used to accurately feed individual burn patients.

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
