Effect of Nucleotide Restriction and Supplementation on Resistance to Experimental Murine CandidiasisJournal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition - Tập 12 Số 1 - Trang 49-52 - 1988
William C. Fanslow, Anil D. Kulkarni, Charles T. Van Buren, Frederick B. Rudolph
The influence of dietary nucleotides on susceptibility to candidiasis in mice was studied using two criteria: animal survival and recovery of viable Candida albicans organisms from the kidney and spleen. One‐month‐old mice were placed on one of five diets with varying nucleotide content. The results show that mice maintained on a nucleotide‐free diet (NF) exhibit...... hiện toàn bộ

Background: Imbalances in a variety of factors, including genetics, intestinal flora, and mucosal immunity, can contribute to the development of ulcerative colitis and its side effects. This study evaluated the effects of pretreatment or treatment with arginine by oral administration on intestinal permeability, bacterial translocation (BT), and mucosal intestinal...... hiện toàn bộ
Synbiotics, Prebiotics, Glutamine, or Peptide in Early Enteral Nutrition: A Randomized Study in Trauma PatientsJournal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition - Tập 31 Số 2 - Trang 119-126 - 2007
Alenka Spindler‐Vesel, Stig Bengmark, Irena Vovk, Ognjen Cerović, Lidija Kompan
Background: Since the hepatosplanchnic region plays a central role in development of multiple‐organ failure and infections in critically ill trauma patients, this study focuses on the influence of glutamine, peptide, and synbiotics on intestinal permeability and clinical outcome. Methods: One hundred thirteen multiple injured patients w...... hiện toàn bộ
The Surgically Induced Stress ResponseJournal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition - Tập 37 Số 5S - 2013
Celeste C. Finnerty, Nigel Tapiwa Mabvuure, Arham Ali, Rosemary A. Kozar, David N. Herndon
The stress response to surgery, critical illness, trauma, and burns encompasses derangements of metabolic and physiological processes that induce perturbations in the inflammatory, acute phase, hormonal, and genomic responses. Hypermetabolism and hypercatabolism result, leading to muscle wasting, impaired immune function and wound healing, organ failure, and death. The surgery‐induced stre...... hiện toàn bộ
Optimal Nutritional Indexes in Chronic Liver DiseaseJournal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition - Tập 11 Số 5S - 1987
Manuela Merli, Adriana Romiti, Oliviero Riggio, L. Capocaccia
A population of 70 patients with liver cirrhosis, most of whom were nonalcoholic, was studied. Distribution of ideal body weight and body mass index was below the median of controls, but very few patients were below the cut‐off points for normalcy. Distribution of triceps skinfold and arm muscle circumference was also below the median and, in most patients, was also below the cut‐off point...... hiện toàn bộ
Review: The Role of Cytokines in the Catabolic Consequences of Infection and InjuryJournal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition - Tập 22 Số 3 - Trang 156-166 - 1998
Huilan Chang, Bruce R. Bistrian
During infection and injury a series of metabolic events are activated that leads to a state of negative nitrogen balance and significant loss of lean body mass. This process is characterized by marked anorexia, net whole body protein breakdown, and liver anabolism. This host response initially is beneficial to the body because it helps it to fight disease and enhance healing. However, if ...... hiện toàn bộ
Review: Nutrition and Alcoholic Liver DiseaseJournal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition - Tập 15 Số 3 - Trang 337-344 - 1991
Luis Marsano, Craig J. McClain
While the rate of malnutrition is relatively modest in alcoholic patients without alcoholic liver disease, the rate of malnutrition is virtually 100% in patients with alcoholic hepatitis and/or alcoholic cirrhosis. The reasons for malnutrition in the alcoholic hepatitis patient include various factors such as anorexia, poor diet, malabsorption, and altered metabolic state. When the patient...... hiện toàn bộ
