Effects of preoperative and intraoperative glucose administration on glucose use and fat catabolism during laparotomy under sevoflurane anesthesia in fasted rats.
Preoperative fasting as well as surgical stress significantly modifies metabolisms. Recent studies reported the possible advantageous effects of glucose administration on perioperative metabolisms; however, the underlying mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. Rats were allocated to three groups. During the fasting period, groups A and B were administered water, but group C was administered glucose. During laparotomy and the insulin tolerance test (ITT) under sevoflurane anesthesia, group A was administered saline, but groups B and C were administered glucose. During laparotomy, group C showed higher glucose levels and lower β-hydroxybutyrate (β-OHB) levels than group A, and group B showed more decreases in β-OHB levels than group A without differences in changes in glucose levels. Insulin levels and insulin sensitivity during laparotomy were similar among the three groups. No significant difference in insulin sensitivity was also confirmed in ITT. In conclusion, perioperative glucose administration suppresses lipolysis without affecting insulin secretion and sensitivity.
