Early parenteral feeding of amino acids.

چکیده
Serial 24 hour balance studies of nitrogen and energy were carried out over 10 days in two groups of ventilator dependent preterm infants, of comparable weight and gestational age. In one group (n = 10) a parenteral amino acid source (Vamin 9) was started within 24 hours of birth, and in the other group (n = 11) it was not started until 72 hours. The feeding protocol was otherwise identical. The nitrogen intake (286 compared with 21 mg/kg/day), energy intake (188 compared with 151 kJ), and nitrogen retention (120 compared with -133 mg/kg/day), were all significantly higher during the first three days of life in the group in which the amino acid solution was started early. There were no differences by 7-10 days. The early introduction of amino acids improves the early nutritional state of sick preterm infants.

Introduction: The incidence of malnutrition in hospitalized patients is reported to be high. In particular, patients with esophageal cancer are prone to malnutrition, due to preoperative digestive system dysfunctions and short-term non-oral feeding postoperatively. Selection of an appropriate method for feeding in the postoperative period is important in these patients. Materials and Methods:...

The compensatory growth, proximate composition and amino acid contents changes of young yellow catfish (Pelteobagrus fulvidraco R.) (1.63-1.69 g) had been investigated using a 45-day cyclic feed deprivation and re-feeding experiment. The control group (S0) was fed daily with live tubificid worms (Limnodrilus hoffmeisteri), while the S1/4, S1/2, and S1/1 groups cyclically experienced one-day of ...

Reducing dietary protein content in fish feeds will reduce cost of production if growth performance can be maintained. In this study, we assessed the effects of reduced dietary protein content from 33.5% to 27.4% with ideal amino acids profile on the growth, immune parameters, intestinal microvilli length and total ammonia nitrogen discharge of tilapia. After 8 weeks of feeding, growth performa...
