Glutamine-enriched enteral nutrition increases HLA-DR expression on monocytes of trauma patients.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of glutamine-(Gln)-enriched enteral nutrition (EN) on human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DR and FcgammaR1/CD64 expression on monocytes and plasma glutamine concentrations in multi-trauma patients. HLA-DR expression on monocytes is crucial in the presentation of foreign antigen to the immune system and is severely reduced in trauma patients. In vitr...
متن کاملComplications of Enteral Nutrition
ENTERAL nutrition is the preferred route for providing nutrition support when the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is functional. Compared with conventional central venous feeding, enteral feeding is associated with fewer serious complications, is more nutritionally complete, is more effective in maintaining or restoring host immune response, and takes advantage of normal physiologic and metabolic p...
متن کاملGlutamine-enriched enteral nutrition in very low birthweight infants and allergic and infectious diseases at 6 years of age.
In a previous randomised controlled trial, we found that glutamine-enriched enteral nutrition in 102 very low birthweight (VLBW) infants decreased both the incidence of serious infections in the neonatal period and the risk of atopic dermatitis during the first year of life. We hypothesised that glutamine-enriched enteral nutrition in VLBW infants in the neonatal period influences the risk of a...
متن کاملComplications of enteral nutrition.
Complications may arise during enteral feeding that are usually related to the diameter and rigidity of the tube or the delivery, composition, and sterility of the feed uses. By using a soft, fine bore tube to deliver a sterile feed of known composition, by continuous infusion rather than as a bolus, most of these complications can be avoided.
متن کاملCytokine responses in very low birth weight infants receiving glutamine-enriched enteral nutrition.
OBJECTIVE Very low birth weight (VLBW) infants receiving glutamine-enriched enteral nutrition may present with a lower infection rate, which may result from enhanced antimicrobial innate or Th1 cytokine responses. We investigated whether glutamine-enriched enteral nutrition in VLBW infants increased these cytokine responses following in vitro stimulation of whole blood cells. METHODS In a dou...
