The optimal method of assessing protein energy nutritional status in patients receiving home parenteral nutrition (HPN) is unknown. We evaluated protein energy nutritional status in 47 outpatients (23 male; 24 female) on HPN by measuring anthropometry, plasma proteins, and lymphocyte counts and compared these with the results of subjective clinical assessment and bioelectrical impedance measurements...
The intestinal hypomotility associated with purulent peritonitis is generally regarded as a contraindication to enteral nutrition. However, enteral nutrition may be feasible in suppurative peritonitis if administered with great caution, i.e., assuring the appropriate amount, delivery speed, and osmolality of the enteral formulation. Glutamine (Gln) increases muscle protein synthesis and decreases...
The route of nutrient delivery may alter the production of albumin and induce changes at the molecular level. Donryu rats (n = 75) were divided into the following three groups. The oral feeding (OR) group received a non-purified solid diet ad libitum, the parenteral nutrition (PN) group received a total parenteral nutrition (TPN) solution intravenously, and the enteral nutrition (EN) group received...
