Understanding the mechanisms of glutamine action in critically ill patients
Glutamine (Gln) is an important energy source and has been used as a supplementary energy substrate. Furthermore, Gln is an essential component for numerous metabolic functions, including acid-base homeostasis, gluconeogenesis, nitrogen transport and synthesis of proteins and nucleic acids. Therefore, glutamine plays a significant role in cell homeostasis and organ metabolism

Understanding the mechanisms of kidney fibrosis
The year 2015 has seen great progress in the renal fibrosis field, as key studies began to build a consensus on the importance of epithelial-to‑mesenchymal transition, cell cycle arrest, and defective metabolism in the pathogenesis of kidney fibrosis. New findings also point to a role of developmental signalling in renal fibrogenesis

Therapeutic benefits of glutamine: An umbrella review of meta-analyses
Glutamine may be an essential amino acid in patients with catabolic disease, as it has been demonstrated that circulating glutamine levels drop during critical illness and following major surgery; this may result in an increase in secondary infection risk, recovery time and mortality rates. However, there is much discrepancy in the literature with regards to randomized controlled studies, and t…

Glutamine dipeptide-supplemented parenteral nutrition improves the clinical o…
Early randomised controlled trials (RCTs) testing whether parenteral nutrition regimens that include glutamine dipeptides improves the outcomes of critically ill patients demonstrated convincingly that this regimen associates with reduced mortality, infections, and hospital stays. However, several new RCTs on the same question challenged this. To resolve this controversy, the present meta-analy…

Training Models in Pediatric Minimally Invasive Surgery: Rabbit Model Versus …
: The porcine model is the most widely used animal model for laparoscopic training. However, in pediatric surgery, an experimental setting with smaller animals could improve the training conditions. We compared the efficiency of a rabbit model versus the porcine model for training in pediatric minimally invasive surgery (MIS)
