  2. Nitrogen balance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrogen_balance

    Negative nitrogen balance is associated with burns, serious tissue injuries, fever, hyperthyroidism, wasting diseases, and periods of fasting. A negative nitrogen balance can be used as part of a clinical evaluation of malnutrition. [3] Nitrogen balance is a method traditionally used to measure dietary protein requirements. [4]

  3. Hypermetabolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypermetabolism

    The most apparent sign of hypermetabolism is an abnormally high intake of calories followed by continuous weight loss. Internal symptoms of hypermetabolism include: peripheral insulin resistance, elevated catabolism of protein, carbohydrates and triglycerides, and a negative nitrogen balance in the body. [2]

  4. Human impact on the nitrogen cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_impact_on_the...

    Nitrogen effects on biodiversity, carbon cycling, and changes in species composition have also been demonstrated. In highly developed areas of near shore coastal ocean and estuarine systems, rivers deliver direct (e.g., surface runoff) and indirect (e.g., groundwater contamination) N inputs from agroecosystems.

    This diet should also comply with two more requirements: the first is to not consume more than 1 g of protein/kg body weight/ day, [46] as a greater amount could increase the degree of proteinuria and cause a negative nitrogen balance. [18] People are usually recommended lean cuts of meat, fish, and poultry.

  6. Essential amino acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Essential_amino_acid

    A negative nitrogen balance occurs when more nitrogen is excreted than is consumed, which indicates that there is insufficient intake for the body to maintain its health. Graduate students at the University of Illinois were fed an artificial diet so that there was a slightly positive nitrogen balance. Then one amino acid was omitted and the ...

    In 2022 the IPCC reported that: "The human perturbation of the natural nitrogen cycle through the use of synthetic fertilizers and manure, as well as nitrogen deposition resulting from land-based agriculture and fossil fuel burning has been the largest driver of the increase in atmospheric N2O of 31.0 ± 0.5 ppb (10%) between 1980 and 2019." [61]
