Carbohydrate Metabolism

14.2K
Carbohydrates are polymers composed of molecules containing atoms of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. One gram of carbohydrate can provide four kilo-calories of energy, which makes it the most efficient instant energy source.
Starch accounts for approximately 60% of the carbohydrates consumed by humans. Since amylase enzymes cannot function in the stomach's acidic environment, starch can only be digested in the mouth and small intestine. Simple sugars are found naturally in milk and fruits in...

Overview of Metabolism

38.2K
Living cells constantly carry out various chemical reactions which are necessary for their proper functioning. These reactions are interlinked to one another via multiple pathways. The collection of these chemical reactions is known as metabolism.
Plant Metabolism
Sunlight, the primary source of energy in plants, is first absorbed by the chlorophyll pigments present in their leaves. Plants then use this energy to carry out photosynthesis, where water is oxidized into oxygen and carbon dioxide...

Regulation of Metabolism

11.6K
Cellular needs and conditions vary from cell to cell and change within individual cells over time. For example, the required enzymes and energetic demands of stomach cells are different from those of fat storage cells, skin cells, blood cells, and nerve cells. Furthermore, a digestive cell works much harder to process and break down nutrients during the time that closely follows a meal compared with many hours after a meal. As these cellular demands and conditions vary, so do the amounts and...

Metabolic Rate01:25

Metabolic Rate

1.2K
The human body is a powerhouse of energy, with every cell performing numerous functions that require energy. This energy production and consumption is measured by the metabolic rate, which quantifies the total heat generated by all the body's chemical reactions and mechanical work. This measurement helps to determine the rate of kilocalorie (kcal) consumption needed to fuel all ongoing activities.
The Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) measures the energy expended at rest.
Several factors influence...

Introduction to Metabolism

Metabolism encompasses all biochemical reactions in a living organism, facilitating both the breakdown and synthesis of biomolecules. These metabolic processes are categorized into catabolic and anabolic pathways, which operate in a coordinated manner to ensure energy balance and cellular function.Catabolic Pathways and Energy ReleaseCatabolic pathways involve the breakdown of complex macromolecules such as carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins into smaller structures like monosaccharides, fatty...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

New guidelines differentiate obesity surgery for weight loss from metabolic surgery for comorbidity improvement. Sleeve gastrectomy and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass are established procedures, with newer options offering potential benefits but increased risks.

Area of Science:

  • Metabolic Surgery
  • Bariatric Surgery
  • Surgical Gastroenterology

Background:

  • Surgical treatment for metabolic diseases is an established alternative to conservative management.
  • New S3 guidelines provide clear indications for obesity and metabolic surgery.
  • Distinguishing between obesity surgery (weight loss focus) and metabolic surgery (comorbidity improvement) is crucial.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To outline the key distinctions and indications for obesity versus metabolic surgery based on new S3 guidelines.
  • To review established and emerging surgical procedures for metabolic diseases.
  • To compare the efficacy and risks of different bariatric procedures.

Main Methods:

  • Review of the new S3 guidelines for obesity and metabolic surgery.
  • Analysis of established procedures: sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB).
  • Evaluation of newer procedures: one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB) and single anastomosis duodeno-ileal (SADI) bypass.

Main Results:

  • Obesity surgery prioritizes weight loss; metabolic surgery aims to improve comorbidities, independent of BMI.
  • SG and RYGB are safe, evidence-based procedures.
  • RYGB offers superior metabolic effects but has higher complication and reintervention rates compared to SG.
  • OAGB and SADI may offer enhanced metabolic benefits but carry a higher risk of malnutrition and vitamin deficiencies.

Conclusions:

  • The choice of bariatric procedure depends on whether the primary goal is weight loss or metabolic improvement.
  • Established procedures like SG and RYGB remain mainstays, each with distinct risk-benefit profiles.
  • Emerging procedures like OAGB and SADI show promise for metabolic improvement but require careful patient selection due to nutritional risks.
