The Impact of Microbial Immune Enteral Nutrition on the Patients with Acute Radiation Enteritis in Bowel Function and Immune Status.

Shao F, Xin FZ, Yang CG, Yang DG, Mi YT, Yu JX, Li GY.Author information Department of General Surgery, Liaocheng City Hospital, Liaocheng, 252000, Shandong, China, drfengshao@163.com.AbstractThe aim of the study was to investigate the effect of microbial immune enteral nutrition by microecopharmaceutics and deep sea fish oil and glutamine and Peptisorb on the patients with acute radiation enteritis in bowel function and immune status. From June 2010 to January 2013, 46 acute radiation enteritis patients in Liaocheng People's Hospital were randomized into the microbial immune enteral nutrition group and the control group: 24 patients in treatment group and 22 patients in control group. The immune microbial nutrition was given to the study group, but not to the control group. The concentration of serum albumin and prealbumin and the number of CD3 + T cell, CD4 + T cell, CD8 + T cell, CD4 +/CD8 + and natural killer cell of the two groups were detected on the 1, 7 and 14 days after treatment. The arm muscle circumference and triceps skinfold thickness (TSF) were recorded, and the tolerance of the two groups for enteral nutrition and intestinal symptoms was collected and then comparing the two indicators and get results. The tolerance of microbial immune enteral nutrition group about abdominal pain, bloating and diarrhea was better than the control group (P values were 0.018, 0.04 and 0.008 after 7 days; P values were 0.018, 0.015 and 0.002 after 14 days); and the cellular immune parameters were better than the control group(△ P = 0.008,[Symbol: see text] P = 0.039, ☆ P = 0.032); No difference was found in nutrition indicators. To the patients with acute radiation enteritis, microbial immune enteral nutrition could improve the patient's immune status, and the tolerance of enteral nutrition could be better for the bowel function and the patients' rehabilitation.

Physical Assessment and Anthropometric Measures for Use in Clinical Research Conducted in Critically Ill Patient Populations: An Analytic Observational Study.

Simpson F, Doig GS; for the Early PN Trial Investigators Group.Author information Northern Clinical School Intensive Care Research Unit, University of Sydney, NSW, Australia.AbstractBACKGROUND: Accurate assessment of nutrition status is essential in identifying subpopulations of critically ill patients who are malnourished and at higher mortality risk. The aim of this analytic observational study was to assess the performance of physical assessment and anthropometric measures commonly used in clinical research. Methods: A prospective study was undertaken in 31 intensive care units (ICUs) with a focus on patients with short-term contraindications to enteral nutrition. Within 24 hours of admission to the ICU, the following measures were collected: the Subjective Global Assessment components measuring subcutaneous fat loss and muscle wasting, height, weight, mid-upper-arm circumference, and triceps skinfold thickness (TSF). Mid-arm muscle circumference and body mass index (BMI) were calculated. BMI was assessed as a continuous variable and categorized according to the World Health Organization (WHO) categories. The primary outcome was hospital discharge mortality. Results: In total, 1363 patients were enrolled. BMI, analyzed according to WHO categories (P = .09), and TSF (P = .32) failed to demonstrate statistically significant predictive ability. TSF failed to demonstrate statistically significant clinical utility (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, 0.52; 95% confidence interval, 0.48-0.56). All other individual measures demonstrated statistically significant predictive ability and statistically significant clinical utility. Conclusions: On the basis of the results of our ICU cohort, we recommend caution when using BMI categorized according to WHO definitions. We cannot recommend collection of TSF. More research is required to understand reliability, performance, and use before our results are able to be generalized to other ICU populations.

Vitamin D Status among Pulmonary TB Patients and Non-TB Controls: A Cross-Sectional Study from Mwanza, Tanzania.
