Background /aims: Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tube placement is a common procedure used to initiate enteral feeding. To our knowledge, there are no previous studies that analyze predictors of PEG failure. This study aims to identify risk factors for failure of inpatient PEG placement.

Objectives: Patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) are prone to malnutrition, which leads to deterioration of health. This study is to clarify the effect of Artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted home enteral nutrition (HEN) management mode on the health status of patients with stage III to stage IV NPC after 3 years of treatment, and to provide a new strategy for improving the quality of life of patients.
Methods: Patients with stage III ~ IV NPC were determined whether to accept AI-assisted HEN management according to voluntary principle.

Enteral administration of vancomycin is the standard treatment for () colitis and is presumed to have no systemic absorption. In critically ill patients, however, especially with multi-organ failure, enteral absorption of vancomycin is unpredictable and can cause severe toxicity if it remains unrecognized. We therefore report a case of systemic absorption of enteric vancomycin in a patient with severe colitis.

Introduction: Congenital heart disease (CHD)-associated malnutrition is a systemic consequence of CHD. Dietary recommendations to fulfill nutritional requirements are lacking. This randomized controlled trial (RCT) was conducted to determine the efficacy of early enteral feeding with supplemented expressed breast milk (suppl-EBM) versus expressed breast milk (EBM) in improving the weight of postoperative cardiac surgical infants.

Background: Preterm infants are at risk for necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) and sepsis. Optimal strategies of preterm feeding to achieve full enteral feeding early with minimal duration of central lines without increasing the risk of NEC remain uncertain. We aimed to evaluate if new enteral feeding strategies reflecting early initiation, fortification, and more rapid advancement is beneficial without increasing the risk of NEC.
