Article Synopsis
- Parenteral nutrition (PN) is crucial for patients with intestinal failure, providing essential nutrition intravenously, especially in vulnerable populations like neonates and children.
- While it offers significant benefits, PN can lead to severe complications such as cholestasis, liver disease, and gut atrophy due to the absence of enteral feeding.
- Research is unveiling complex mechanisms behind PN-related injuries, including gut-bile interactions, and exploring new strategies to mitigate liver and gut damage associated with PN.
