Insulin resistance means the body is unable to respond to important hormones that control use of energy. Recent studies have shown that patients who develop 'higher' insulin resistance and inflammation have more serious complications and take longer to recover after surgery. The investigators do not know what controls the development of insulin resistance and inflammation after surgery. Similarly, the investigators do not know why certain patients develop much more insulin resistance and inflammation than others, even though they have the same operation.\n\nThe main purpose of the study is to try to find out which patients are prone to developing greater 'amounts' of insulin resistance and inflammation. The investigators also want to find out whether the investigators can reduce the 'amount' of insulin resistance and inflammation in these patients (for example by giving them carbohydrate \\[sugar-based\\] drinks before surgery - these have been shown to reduce insulin resistance in some patient groups).\n\nInformation from this study should improve the way the investigators prepare patients before surgery and this should help to improve patient outcomes following surgery (by reducing complications and speeding recovery after major surgery).", 'detailedDescription': "Interested participants who are undergoing abdominal (tummy) surgery will be recruited from surgical clinics. They will be asked to attend the Greenfield Human Physiology Laboratory where they will be asked to complete two questionnaires. In addition, a sample of blood, and a small sample of muscle and fat from their thigh will be taken. They will undergo a low dose X-ray (DXA scan) and an insulin clamp. The insulin clamp involves being connected to an insulin and glucose drip for around four hours during which their blood pressure and pulse is monitored and regular blood samples are taken.\n\nParticipants will be allocated randomly to one of two groups. One group will receive a carbohydrate (sugar) drink before surgery and the other group will receive a dummy (placebo) drink.\n\nOn the day of surgery, pre-operative checks and assessment will proceed as normal. After the participant is asleep under anaesthetic, a blood sample and tummy muscle and fat samples will be taken by the surgeon through the surgical incision. At the end of surgery, another blood sample and muscle and fat samples from the tummy and thigh will be taken while the participant is still under anaesthetic.\n\nOn the day after surgery, a further blood test and tummy and thigh muscle and fat sample will be taken. Participants will also undergo another insulin clamp.\n\nThe research team will follow participants' progress after surgery, but the decision to allow them home will be made by the medical team responsible for their care."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '75 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': "Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Age 18-75 yrs\n* Correct BMI and waist circumference criteria : Obese group - BMI ≥30 AND waist circumference ≥94 cm in men and ≥ 80 cm in women, Non obese group - BMI 18.5-25 AND waist circumference ≤94cm in men and ≤80 cm in women Due to undergo elective major abdominal surgery ASA I-III Caucasian patients Able to give informed consent and comply with study protocol\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* History of significant preoperative weight loss (\\>10% over preceding 3 weeks)\n\n * Clinical history of pulmonary aspiration\n * Known gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD) or hiatus hernia\n * History of difficult intubation or conditions leading to the latter such as: previous neck radiotherapy/rheumatoid arthritis/presence of thyroid goitre\n * Metabolic disorders (e.g. diabetes mellitus, thyroid disease, Cushing's Syndrome)\n * Simultaneous participation in another clinical study or involvement in a clinical study within the preceding 3 months,\n * Patients with suspicion of alcohol/drug abuse\n * Pregnancy"}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT01470534', 'briefTitle': 'Mechanisms Underlying Postoperative Insulin Resistance and Inflammation', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'University of Nottingham'}, 'officialTitle': 'Investigating Whether the Magnitude of Postoperative Inflammatory and Insulin Resistant Responses is Related to Body Composition and Physiological Function of Skeletal Muscle & Adipose Tissue', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '11040'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Normal body weight', 'interventionNames': ['Dietary Supplement: carbohydrate drink', 'Procedure: Muscle biopsy', 'Procedure: Blood sampling']}, {'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Obese', 'interventionNames': ['Dietary Supplement: carbohydrate drink', 'Procedure: Muscle biopsy', 'Procedure: Blood sampling']}, {'type': 'PLACEBO_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'Normal Body Weight placebo', 'description': 'Participants of mormal body weight given placebo', 'interventionNames': ['Procedure: Muscle biopsy', 'Procedure: Blood sampling', 'Dietary Supplement: Placebo']}, {'type': 'PLACEBO_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'Obese placebo', 'description': 'Participants who are obese given placebo', 'interventionNames': ['Procedure: Muscle biopsy', 'Procedure: Blood sampling', 'Dietary Supplement: Placebo']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'carbohydrate drink', 'type': 'DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT', 'description': 'carbohydrate drink', 'armGroupLabels': ['Normal body weight', 'Obese']}, {'name': 'Muscle biopsy', 'type': 'PROCEDURE', 'description': 'Open muscle biopsy', 'armGroupLabels': ['Normal Body Weight placebo', 'Normal body weight', 'Obese', 'Obese placebo']}, {'name': 'Blood sampling', 'type': 'PROCEDURE', 'description': 'Venopuncture', 'armGroupLabels': ['Normal Body Weight placebo', 'Normal body weight', 'Obese', 'Obese placebo']}, {'name': 'Placebo', 'type': 'DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT', 'armGroupLabels': ['Normal Body Weight placebo', 'Obese placebo']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': 'NG7 2UH', 'city': 'Nottingham', 'status': 'RECRUITING', 'country': 'United Kingdom', 'contacts': [{'name': 'Dileep Lobo', 'role': 'CONTACT', 'email': 'dileep.lobo@nottingham.ac.uk'}, {'name': 'Dileep Lodo', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR'}], 'facility': 'University of Nottingham', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 52.9536, 'lon': -1.15047}}]}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'University of Nottingham', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'SPONSOR'}}}}
