Sponsor's own description

Background Sarcopenia is characterized by the degenerative loss of skeletal muscle and is associated with increased adverse surgical outcomes. Glutamine is considered as an immune-modulating formula, which may stimulate protein synthesis in the skeletal muscle but also inhibited protein-degradation. In this study, the investigators calculate the area and volume psoas major muscle (PMMA; PMMV) of the third lumbar vertebral body as the reference of skeletal muscle. The aim of this study is to investigate whether perioperative glutamine supplementation restores atrophy of psoas muscle.
