Human adaptation to immobilization: Novel insights of impacts on glucose disposal and fuel utilization. Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, 13(6), 2999-3013. https://doi.org/10.1002/jcsm.13075

Background: Bed rest (BR) reduces whole-body insulin-stimulated glucose disposal (GD) and alters muscle fuel metabolism, but little is known about metabolic adaptation from acute to chronic BR nor the mechanisms involved, particularly when volunteers...

The effects of elective abdominal surgery on protein turnover: A meta-analysis of stable isotope techniques to investigate postoperative catabolism (2022)
Journal Article
Jaconelli, M., Greenhaff, P. L., Atherton, P. J., Lobo, D. N., & Brook, M. S. (2022). The effects of elective abdominal surgery on protein turnover: A meta-analysis of stable isotope techniques to investigate postoperative catabolism. Clinical Nutrition, 41(3), 709-722. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.clnu.2022.01.023

Background & aims Elective surgery induces skeletal muscle wasting driven by an imbalance between muscle protein synthesis and breakdown. From examination of diverse stable isotope tracer techniques, the dynamic processes driving this imbalance ar...

The importance of protein sources to support muscle anabolism in cancer: An expert group opinion (2021)
Journal Article
Ford, K. L., Arends, J., Atherton, P. J., Engelen, M. P., Gonçalves, T. J., Laviano, A., …Prado, C. M. (2022). The importance of protein sources to support muscle anabolism in cancer: An expert group opinion. Clinical Nutrition, 41(1), 192-201. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.clnu.2021.11.032

This opinion paper presents a short review of the potential impact of protein on muscle anabolism in cancer, which is associated with better patient outcomes. Protein source is a topic of interest for patients and clinicians, partly due to recent emp...

Intestinal ischemia following laparoscopic surgery: a case series (2013)
Journal Article
Al-Khyatt, W., Thomas, J. D., Humes, D. J., & Lobo, D. N. (2013). Intestinal ischemia following laparoscopic surgery: a case series. Journal of Medical Case Reports, 7(25), Article 25. https://doi.org/10.1186/1752-1947-7-25

Introduction: Intestinal ischemia is a rare complication of laparoscopic surgery. Its prognosis depends on a high index of suspicion and effective early treatment. Case presentation: In the present report, we describe three cases where intestinal i... Read More about Intestinal ischemia following laparoscopic surgery: a case series.
