Text: Whole-body net balance of protein also significantly increased with insulin-based TPN, compared with standard TPN (INS : 0. 04 + / - 0. 05 versus STD : -0. 08 + / - 0. 07 mumol leu/kg/min, p < 0. 05), but no difference in whole-body protein synthesis (INS : 2. 52 + / - 0. 15 versus STD : 2. 49 + / - 0. 15 mumol leu/kg/min) or whole-body protein breakdown (INS : 2. 48 + / - 0. 16 versus STD : 2. 58 + / - 0. 19 mumol leu/kg/min) was observed.
