Objective: This review aims to present the best available evidence related to the effect of preoperative nutritional supplementation on postoperative outcomes for patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy for cancer.
Introduction: Pancreaticoduodenectomy surgery is the only curative option for early head of pancreas and periampullary cancers. This complex, high-risk procedure is associated with significant morbidity, making opportunities to improve outcomes paramount. Nutritional supplementation in the preoperative period may enhance the body's ability to withstand the stress of major surgery and reduce postoperative complications.
Inclusion Criteria: This review will consider studies of patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy for cancer who are provided preoperative nutritional supplementation in any form for a minimum of 48 hours. Randomized and quasi-randomized trials that compare any form of preoperative nutritional supplementation to standard care in these patients will be included. Outcome data will include hospital length of stay, mortality, infections, delayed gastric emptying, pancreatic fistula, anastomotic leak, hemorrhage, weight loss, body mass index, serum albumin, lymphocyte levels, and nutrition risk index score.
Methods: Electronic databases (PubMed, Scopus, CINAHL, and Cochrane Library) and trial registers will be searched for published and unpublished articles. All articles from database inception to present, published in any language will be included. One reviewer will perform the literature search, screen texts for inclusion, and extract data. Two authors will assess methodological quality of the literature using the JBI critical appraisal tool. Authors will be contacted where additional data or clarification is required. Statistical meta-analysis through synthesis and pooling of data for each intervention will be completed where meaningful.
Systematic Review Registration Number: PROSPERO CRD42020215307.

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a multifactorial condition with heterogeneous pathophysiology, including intestinal permeability alterations. The aim of the present study was to assess the ability of a probiotic blend (PB) consisting of two strains (CECT7484 and CECT7485) and one strain of (CECT7483) to recover the permeability increase induced by mediators from IBS mucosal biopsies and to highlight the underlying molecular mechanisms. Twenty-one IBS patients diagnosed according to ROME IV criteria (11 IBS-D and 10 IBS-M) and 7 healthy controls were enrolled.

Monoterpenoids are interesting hydrocarbons typically found in essential oils and have a significant role in medicinal and biological purposes. The goal of this study was to investigate the effects of two monoterpenoids, carvacrol (CAR) and menthol (MEN), supplemented with leaf meal (MOLM) based diets on growth parameters, digestibility and body composition of Nile tilapia (). Alongside the basal diet (control-T1), nine experimental diets supplemented with categorized levels of CAR and MEN at 200, 300 and 400 mg/kg individually and their mixtures (MIX) (1:1) (CAR-T2, 200; T3, 300; T4, 400 mg/kg, MEN-T5, 200; T6, 300; T7, 400 mg/kg and MIX- (1:1) T8, 200; T9, 300; T10, 400 mg/kg) were fed to the fingerlings (6.
