Enteral insufficiency is considered to trigger the syndrome of endogenous intoxication and, further, multiple organ failure. Enteral insufficiency often accompanies postoperative septic complications, such as peritonitis. Morphologic changes of the intestinal wall by septic peritonitis consisted of edema, fibrinous degradation of muscular layer and dystrophy of local nervous pathways. Microbiologic analysis of intestinal and gastric contents, peritoneal fluid and blood samples demonstrated a broad spectrum of pathogenic flora. Besides, enterotoxin allocated from blood and intestinal contents coincided in all cases. Adequate algorithm of detoxication, including extracorporal methods, had been worked out.

Evaluation of the Impact of Enteral Nutrition Support on Anthropometric Measurements and Micronutrient Levels in Malnourished Children.
Clin Pediatr (Phila)
December 2024
Department of Pharmacology, School of Medicine, Bahcesehir University, Istanbul, Turkey.
Background: Malnutrition is a critical clinical condition that requires early intervention due to its potential for causing preventable fatalities and complications. This study aims to assess the impact of outpatient enteral nutrition support (ENS) as a therapeutic intervention on anthropometric measurements, intolerance, and micronutrient values in malnourished children.

Why protein-energy wasting leads to faster progression of chronic kidney disease.
Curr Opin Nephrol Hypertens
January 2025
Department of Medicine, David Geffen School of Medicine at University of California Los Angeles, Los Angeles.
Article Synopsis
- Protein-energy wasting (PEW) is a significant issue in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), especially as the disease advances, leading to increased risks of hospitalization and mortality.
- Research indicates that low levels of serum albumin, body mass index (BMI), and inadequate dietary intake of energy and protein are linked to the progression of CKD.
- Effective management of PEW may involve a tailored nutrition plan, including a moderately low protein diet and appropriate supplementation, alongside addressing other health conditions and lifestyle factors.
