2000, Clinics in PerinatologyCitation Excerpt :In adults, sepsis induces profound changes in both energy and protein metabolism. Several neonatal studies have documented glucose and lipid intolerance in neonates with sepsis,30,54,75 but the single study of protein metabolism in neonates with sepsis did not demonstrate either increased protein requirements or significant protein intolerance.70 The neonatal stress response may be different from the adult, but there is little information about how it affects protein metabolism in the infant.
