Objective: Our purpose is to describe our experience with combined enteral feeding and gastric decompression or drainage in debilitated patients with persistent gastroesophageal reflux using two separate catheters.
Conclusion: The placement of two percutaneous catheters through separate skin sites is a feasible and successful approach to providing enteral feeding and gastric decompression or drainage in debilitated patients with persistent gastroesophageal reflux and aspiration pneumonia.

Naso-intestinal versus gastric tube for enteral nutrition in patients undergoing mechanical ventilation: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Syst Rev
January 2025
Department of Neurosurgery, Pingxiang People's Hospital, Pingxiang, Jiangxi Province, 337000, China.
Background: A systematic appraisal of the comparative efficacy and safety profiles of naso-intestinal tube versus gastric tube feeding in the context of enteral nutrition for mechanically ventilated (MV) patients is imperative. Such an evaluation is essential to inform clinical practice, ensuring that the chosen method of nutritional support is both optimal and safe for this patient population.
Methods: We executed an exhaustive search across PubMed et al.
Behavioral Signature of Equine Gastric Discomfort? Preliminary Retrospective Clinical Observations.

Gastric ulcer disease and other potentially painful gastric conditions are among the most common afflictions adversely affecting the welfare of domestic equids. A large percentage of affected animals may not display the classic signs of gastric disease, such as unexplained weight loss, poor hair coat, and inappetence until the disease becomes severe. As a clinical service within our equine referral hospital, we routinely evaluate 24-h video recorded samples of horses to assist clinicians in identifying subtle discomfort and potential sources or to scan for infrequent neurologic or cardiac-related behavioral events.

Objective: To investigate the current status and influencing factors of feeding intolerance (FI) during enteral nutrition (EN) in intensive care unit (ICU) patients.
Methods: A retrospective case-control study was conducted, including patients from two ICU wards of a tertiary hospital in Guizhou Province from July 2019 to December 2022. Clinical data were collected using a self-designed data collection form, including general information [age, gender, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II (APACHE II)], clinical treatment (mechanical ventilation, mild hypothermia therapy), medication use (vasoactive drugs, glucocorticoids, analgesics, sedatives), EN implementation (types of EN fluids, EN methods, tube feeding rate), EN tolerance, and blood glucose status.
Hesperidin enhances broiler growth performance by augmenting gastric acid secretion via the proton pump pathway.

Hesperidin exhibits promising potential as a feed additive for augmenting gastric acid secretion in animals. Gastrointestinal function is essential for animal growth and the efficient digestion of dietary nutrients, with gastric acid secretion serving as one of its critical components. The secretion of gastric acid, together with other digestive fluids and substances, significantly influences the digestion and absorption of animal feed, which in turn affects growth performance.

Objectives: This study aims to report on the application of degradable starch microspheres to provide flow diversion by means of temporary embolization of healthy tissues in oncological endovascular procedures when tumor feeding vessels are not selectively accessible.
Methods: This is a multicenter retrospective analysis of patients undergoing visceral embolization procedures of malignancies. The inclusion criteria were as follows: flow diversion performed by injection of degradable starch microspheres, visceral embolization procedures with unfeasible superselective catheterism of the target, and a malignant pathology.
