Brief Title: Impact of Preoperative Oral Branched-chain Amino Acids on Reducing Postoperative Insulin Resistance.
Official Title: A Multicenter Randomized Controlled Study of Preoperative Oral Administration of Branched-chain Amino Acids in Reducing Postoperative Insulin Resistance in Colorectal Cancer Patients
Study ID: NCT05494658
Brief Summary: Postoperative insulin resistance refers to the phenomenon that the body's glucose uptake stimulated by insulin is reduced due to stress effects such as trauma or the inhibitory effect of insulin on liver glucose output is weakened after surgery. There is a clear link between postoperative insulin resistance and poor perioperative prognosis. Therefore, exploring interventions to reduce postoperative stress insulin resistance, stabilize postoperative blood glucose, and reduce postoperative complications are clinical problems that need to be solved urgently. In recent years, research on branched-chain amino acids and metabolic diseases has become a hot spot. Studies have found that in the rat model, preoperatively given a high branched-chain amino acid diet can inhibit postoperative insulin resistance and stabilize blood glucose levels. This research plan is to try to add branched-chain amino acids before surgery to observe the occurrence of postoperative insulin resistance in patients.
