The most significant events and discoveries regarding the development of enteral nutrition (EN) dating back to 1500 BC are chronicled. A more detailed description and discussion of subsequent more recent progress during the past two decades is focused primarily on 3 of the most dynamic areas of endeavor: tight glycemic control; timing and combining of EN and total parenteral nutrition to meet early target nutrition goals in intensive care unit patients; and the role, advances, and future of immunonutrition. An abridged classification of solutions for enteral feeding, and a brief outline of key prudent oral dietary guidelines are also presented.

Background Sarcopenia is the progressive and generalized loss of skeletal muscle and its associated function. Whilst it is typically associated with advanced age, it is also prevalent in patients with chronic diseases including cancer. Patients with esophageal cancer are at high risk of developing malnutrition and sarcopenia due to impaired oral intake, the effects of neoadjuvant treatment, and cancer-related cachexia.

We developed NutriSighT, a transformer model using learnable positional coding to predict which patients would achieve hypocaloric nutrition between days 3-7 of mechanical ventilation. Using retrospective data from two large ICU databases (3,284 patients from AmsterdamUMCdb - development set, and 6,456 from MIMIC-IV - external validation set), we included adult patients intubated for at least 72 hours.

J Intellect Dev Disabil
March 2024
Clinical and Professional Development, Melmark New England, Andover, MA, USA.
Background: Some adults with intellectual disabilities do not acquire oral feeding skills and are dependent on gastrostomy tube supplementation.
Methods: Two adults with intellectual and multiple disabilities received intervention for oral consumption during daily meals (standardised food and liquid quantities, individualised procedural guidelines, and consumption-contingent consequences) while the frequency and amount of gastrostomy tube feedings were gradually decreased and eliminated.
Results: Compared to baseline (pre-intervention) conditions, the adults increased oral consumption of food and liquid during the intervention and gastrostomy tube supplementation was eliminated.
Exploring gut microbiota as a novel therapeutic target in Crohn's disease: Insights and emerging strategies.

Extensive research has investigated the etiology of Crohn's disease (CD), encompassing genetic predisposition, lifestyle factors, and environmental triggers. Recently, the gut microbiome, recognized as the human body's second-largest gene pool, has garnered significant attention for its crucial role in the pathogenesis of CD. This paper investigates the mechanisms underlying CD, focusing on the role of 'creeping fat' in disease progression and exploring emerging therapeutic strategies, including fecal microbiota transplantation, enteral nutrition, and therapeutic diets.
