abstract="Head-injury patients studied showed severe wasting immediately after trauma. Nitrogen balance studies were used to determine whether this severe wasting was due to a catabolic state. Patients undergoing elective neurosurgical procedures were used as a control group. The results show that although head-injury patients have a higher protein requirement than the control group, they are not catabolic; their protein requirement is normal.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
