NCT07426172
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether the elevated circulating lactate levels of individuals with metabolic syndrome are responsible for their reduced lipolysis and glucose tolerance. The investigators will conduct an intervention study in which blood lactate levels will be elevated via intravenous infusion of sodium lactate. State of the art metabolic assessment using stable isotopes and indirect calorimetry will be used to study alterations in fat and carbohydrate metabolism.
NCT05145049
The investigators aimed to research the incidence of hyperlactatemia in craniotomy cases, the relationship of lactate elevation with tumor type and other factors that may be related, and whether the general anesthesia method applied (inhalation anesthesia or total ıntravenous anesthesia) affects lactate level.
NCT04710875
Lactate may have anti-lipolytic effects when plasma concentrations of lactate reach levels similar to those seen during high intensity exercise. This study aims to investigate how lactate concentrations similar to those achieved during high intensity exercise affects lipolysis in humans. In addition to this, to investigate how increased lactate concentrations affects glucose- and amino acid metabolism. 8 healthy males will be included. Study participants will undergo two separate investigation days that will be identical except for the interventions: 1. Intravenous sodium D/L-lactate 2. Intravenous sodium chloride. The study consists of a 3-hour basal period followed by a 3-hour hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp. During the study we will: * Estimate insulin sensitivity during the hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp (M value) * Use tracer kinetics to estimate lipid-, glucose and amino acid metabolism using \[9,10-3H\]-palmitate, \[3-3H\]-glucose, \[15N\]-phenylalanine, \[15N\]-tyrosine, \[2H4\]-tyrosine and \[13C\]-Urea. * Do muscle- and adipose tissue biopsies for analyses of signaling pathways involved in regulation of lipid-, glucose and amino acid metabolism. * Do blood samples of relevant hormones, metabolites and cytokines. * Use indirect calorimetry to estimate study participants' resting energy expenditure and respiratory quotient during the basal period. * Estimate cardiac ejection fraction by echocardiography and measure blood pressure during both the basal- and clamp period.

The MostCare system, thanks to the Pressure Recording Analytical Method (PRAM; Vygon, Padua, Italy), provides new hemodynamic parameters of the cardiovascular system. The PRAM method is a noncalibrated pulse contour method which requires only an arterial line (radial or femoral). This method has been validated in various clinical conditions. Among the collected parameters, some are well known and used daily care in Intensive Care Unit (ICU), i.e. cardiac output (CO), arterial pressure, heart rate, stroke volume (SV). Others such as arterial elastance (Ea) or dicrotic pressure are more recent and merit further investigation to determine their interest in clinical practice. To date, it is rarely used to adapt therapies, mostly because of a lack of knowledge regarding the evolution of these parameters. The aim of this study is to analyze the relationship between the evolution of Arterial Elastance and fluid responsiveness after a 250 mL fluid challenge of crystalloids in 5 minutes in patients with either septic shock or in the postoperative course of a major vascular surgery. Patients will be considered fluid responders if an increase \>10% of the stroke volume is observed .
NCT02950753
Lactated Ringer's (LR) solution bolus is commonly administered in the emergency department setting to seriously ill patients. It is also common to obtain blood samples to determine serum lactate levels to aid in the assessment of the patient's degree of illness. This study endeavors to determine if serum lactate levels are affected by LR fluid administration in healthy adult individuals as compared to those who receive Normal Saline (NS). Healthy adult volunteers will be used as subjects so that the illness of hospital patients does not confound the results.
NCT00471614
The purpose of this study is to determine whether uridine supplementation will improve insulin sensitivity and overall carbohydrate metabolism in HIV-positive subjects who are currently undergoing treatment with antiretroviral regimens containing stavudine or zidovudine and who have evidence of impaired mitochondrial function and insulin resistance.
NCT00390273
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the influence of metformin on lactate metabolism. The main outcome is the lactate production following an exogenous lactate overload in healthy male subjects without metformin and one week later with metformin.
