Title: Cholecystectomy in the Very Elderly – Is Ninety the New Seventy?
Abstract: nighttime).RER was unchanged neither at 2 nor 8 weeks.After IT, neither TEE nor EE was changed at 2 weeks.Resting VO2 and VCO2 (during 7-8 A.m.) were increased.RER was increased during both daytime and nighttime, due to higher VCO2.Conclusions: In highfat diet-induced obese rats, TEE was increased initially and energy was provided mainly by fat metabolism.GB or SG+DS increased EE and the fat oxidation, whereas SG or IT was without effects on EE but increased the carbohydrate metabolism.The hypermetabolic state is likely to contribute to the metabolic benefits after IT procedure.
