Objective: To investigate the potential role of the preventive nutritional support in patients with nutritional risk defined by nutrition risk screening 2002(NRS 2002) before radical resection of gastric cancer.
Methods: Patients with gastric cancer were evaluated by NRS 2002 preoperatively. Elective patients with nutritional risk were randomly assigned into 3 d preventive enteral nutrition(EN) group versus control group. The preventive nutrition regimen was 1000 ml Nutrison Multi Fibre(4184 kJ/L). The changes in body weight lost, serum albumin, immunoglobulin were recorded postoperatively.
Results: One week after operation, the preventive EN group showed less decrease in body weight as compared to control group, which was statistically significant. The levels of serum albumin and IgA on day 1 and day 3 after operation in preventive EN group were significantly higher than those in control group.
Conclusion: Before operation for gastric cancer, patients with nutritional risk defined by NRS 2002 may benefit from preventive enteral nutrition, which improves the patients' nutritional condition and enhances their immunologic function.

Children use nasogastric tubes (NGTs) to ensure optimum nutrition and medication delivery when oral feeding fails or when they experience faltering growth. Although this method is less invasive, children may experience complications associated with NGTs. There is a gap in the literature regarding the types and prevention of complications of NGTs in the pediatric population at home.

Aim: Patients with gastric malignant tumors usually undergo surgical treatment when indicated. Surgical intervention causes significant trauma and can lead to considerable stress responses in patients. These patients experience increased malnutrition along with reduced immune function, which ultimately leads to the occurrence of postoperative complications.

Importance: Gastrointestinal complications are common perioperative complications in children with congenital heart disease (CHD), and as near-infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) provides a non-invasive, real-time monitoring of regional tissue oxygenation, we envisioned monitoring and preventing the development of gastrointestinal complications through the use of NIRS.
Objective: To assess the utility of NIRS for predicting gastrointestinal complication risks and determining optimal initial feeding times in infants post-cardiac surgery.
Methods: This retrospective study included 65 infants with CHD treated at our hospital from January 2021 to January 2022.

Home enteral nutrition (HEN) is a vital feeding practice for those who have chronic disorders that prevent them from eating normally. Although short-term feeding is predominantly done via nasogastric (NG) tubes and long-term feeding is done via percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tube, we present a case that demonstrates that the long-term use of NG tubes may be possible. Our case involves an adult woman who has been fed via an NG tube for >3 years with no complications.

Background: Limited literature exists on nutrition practices for long-stay patients in the intensive care unit (ICU). We aimed to compare nutrition practices in the first and second weeks of an ICU admission.
Method: A post hoc exploratory analysis of The Augmented vs Routine Approach to Giving Energy Trial (TARGET) randomized controlled trial (RCT) was undertaken.
