The Clinical and Psychometric Validation of a Questionnaire to Assess the Quality of Life of Adult Patients Treated With Long-Term Parenteral Nutrition.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSIONS: A method of objectively assessing the QOL of patients treated with HPN has been developed. The HPN-QOL has been rigorously prepared and demonstrates psychometric and clinical validity to assess the QOL of long-term HPN patients. (JPEN J Parenter Enteral Nutr. XXXX;XX:xx-xx).

Ethical Issues in Artificial Nutrition and Hydration: A Review.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Healthcare professionals often face clinical and ethical challenges when charged with making decisions related to provision or lack of provision of artificial nutrition and hydration. The intent of this review is to supply a framework of clinical practices, ethical principles, legal precedents, and professional guidelines that will impart information and can assist decision making regarding artificial nutrition and hydration. Comprehensive understanding of the theory and practice of informed consent for competent adults, decisionally incompetent adults, and minors is necessary for making valid clinical judgments and fo...

Measurement of Body Composition in Burned Children: Is There a Gold Standard?Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSIONS: DEXA can provide a sufficiently accurate determination of LBM and changes in body composition, but a correction factor must be included for older children and adolescents with more LBM. DEXA scans are easier, cheaper, and less stressful for the patient, and this method should be used rather than the K count. (JPEN J Parenter Enteral Nutr. XXXX;xx:xx-xx).

Role of Vitamin D in Adults Requiring Nutrition Support.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
The major and most well-known function of vitamin D is to maintain calcium and phosphorus homeostasis and promote bone mineralization. However, recent evidence suggests that vitamin D may be important for a variety of nonskeletal outcomes. The review synthesizes the available evidence for the role of vitamin D in skeletal health as well as its novel roles in medical conditions such as muscle function, falls, immunity, glucose homeostasis, and cardiovascular diseases. The article reviews methods for assessing vitamin D status and suggests strategies to restore vitamin D status in patients requiring enteral or parenteral...

Colonic GLP-2 is not Sufficient to Promote Jejunal Adaptation in a PN-Dependent Rat Model of Human Short Bowel Syndrome.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSIONS: After bowel resection resulting in SBS in the rat, peak proglucagon, plasma GLP-2, and GLP-2 receptor levels are insufficient to promote jejunal adaptation.

Low Availability of Aluminum in Formulations for Parenteral Nutrition Containing Silicate.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSIONS: The concomitant presence of Al and Si in solutions for PN reduces the amount of Al available attributable to the formation of HAS. In amino acid formulations this effect may be slightly reduced given the affinity of certain amino acids for Al. Therefore, amino acids may behave in the same fashion as silicate.

Fish Oil-Based Lipid Emulsions Prevent and Reverse Parenteral Nutrition-Associated Liver Disease: The Boston Experience.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Parenteral nutrition-associated liver disease (PNALD) is the most prevalent and most severe complication of long-term parenteral nutrition. Its underlying pathophysiology, however, largely remains to be elucidated. The currently approved parenteral lipid emulsions in the United States contain safflower or soybean oils, both rich in omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). Mounting evidence indicates that the omega-6 PUFAs originating from plant oils in these lipid emulsions may play a role in the onset of liver injury. Fish oil-based lipid emulsions, in contrast, are primarily composed of omega-3 PUFAs, thus provid...

Rationale and Design of the Pediatric Critical Illness Stress-Induced Immune Suppression (CRISIS) Prevention Trial.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Despite implementation of CDC recommendations and bundled interventions for preventing catheter-associated blood stream infection, ventilator-associated pneumonia, or urinary catheter-associated infections, nosocomial infections and sepsis remain a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in critically ill children. Recent studies suggest that acquired critical illness stress-induced immune suppression (CRISIS) plays a role in the development of nosocomial infection and sepsis. This condition can be related to inadequate zinc, selenium, and glutamine levels, as well as hypoprolactinemia, leading to stress-induced ...

The objective of the present study was to detect the presence of biofilms and microorganisms adhering to the central venous catheters used for parenteral nutrition therapy by scanning electron microscopy. Thirty-nine central venous catheters belonging to patients with clinical signs of infection (G1) and asymptomatic patients (G2) and patients receiving central venous catheters for clinical monitoring (G3) were analyzed by semiquantitative culture and scanning electron microscopy. The central venous catheters of G1 presented more positive cultures than those of G2 and G3 (81% vs 50% and 0%, respectively). However, biofilms...

Parenteral Feeding Depletes Pulmonary Lymphocyte Populations.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSIONS: PN reduces pulmonary lymphocyte populations consistent with impaired respiratory immunity. Transferred lung T cells preferentially localize to recipient lungs rather than intestine with maximal accumulation at 24 hours. Limited cross-talk of transferred lung T cells to the intestine indicates that mucosal lymphocyte traffic might be programmed to localize to specific effector sites. (JPEN J Parenter Enteral Nutr.

Micronutrient Supplementation in Adult Nutrition Therapy: Practical Considerations.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
Preexisting micronutrient (vitamins and trace elements) deficiencies are often present in hospitalized patients. Deficiencies occur due to inadequate or inappropriate administration, increased or altered requirements, and increased losses, affecting various biochemical processes and resulting in organ dysfunction, poor wound healing, and altered immune status with deleterious sequelae. Guidelines for the 13 essential vitamins and 10 essential trace elements have been established. These recommendations, however, are applicable to healthy adults and not to critically ill patients, in whom decreased serum levels may indic...

Intestinal Dipeptide Absorption Is Preserved During Thermal Injury and Cytokine Treatment.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSIONS: Intestinal absorption of the dipeptide Gly-Sar is preserved 24 hours following thermal injury in rats. Likewise, PEPT1 expression and peptide absorption are preserved following treatment with TNF-alpha, IL-6, and IL-10 in Caco-2 monolayers. These findings imply that intestinal dipeptide absorption may be preserved during burn injury. This may lead to new strategies to optimize enteral protein delivery in burn patients.

Evolution of Lipid Profile, Liver Function, and Pattern of Plasma Fatty Acids According to the Type of Lipid Emulsion Administered in Parenteral Nutrition in the Early Postoperative Period After Digestive Surgery.Email this article to a colleague. Save this article to My Clippings. Discuss or comment on this article.
CONCLUSIONS: All ILEs administered were safe and well tolerated. The changes in serum fatty acids reflected the pattern of fatty acids administered with different ILEs. The group receiving the olive oil emulsion achieved a fatty acid composition of serum lipids that could offer major therapeutic or biological advantages. (JPEN J Parenter Enteral Nutr.
