Over the past decade, the use of supraphysiologic doses of micronutrients (also called metabolic resuscitation) in critically ill patients has gained significant attention. Building upon preclinical and observational human data, numerous randomized controlled trials have tested the impact of multiple micronutrients on various outcomes in critically ill patients. At the 2022 American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition Preconference Course, three world-renowned speakers delivered talks on the (1) overall role of micronutrients and, specifically, (2) selenium and vitamin C and (3) vitamin D and zinc in critically ill patients. Here, the case presentation and discussion from the postsession question and answer period are presented. The moderator for this session was Jose Pimiento, MD, and the speakers and panelists were Christian Stoppe, MD, Todd Rice, MD, and Daren Heyland, MD.

January 2025
Health Promotion and Health Behavior Department, Institute of Public Health, College of Medicine and Health Sciences, University of Gondar, Gondar, Ethiopia.

In Ethiopia, national data on hygiene practices during complementary feeding, particularly among mothers of children aged 6-24 months, is limited. This study aims to synthesize existing data through a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the status of hygiene practices and identify key influencing factors, informing public health strategies to improve child health outcomes.
