Abstract
INTRODUCTION There is limited comprehensive literature focussing on the range of patient safety incidents related to parenteral nutrition (PN). OBJECTIVE The aim of this review was to examine patient safety incidents related to the use of PN in all patient age groups. METHODS Literature published in the English language between January 2000 and April 2020 were searched across the MEDLINE, CINHAL and Embase databases. Articles were included if they contained PN-related patient safety incidents related to an avoidable event. No restrictions were applied to patient populations. The screening process was undertaken independently by two authors. RESULTS In total, 108 records were included in the review: 52 case studies, 54 observation studies (e.g. prevalence studies, surveys) and two experimental studies. All age groups were represented, with 62% of studies in paediatrics (of which two-thirds were neonates) and 23% in adults. They included all medication processes: prescribing, dispensing, compounding, administration and monitoring. Incidents were related to microbial contamination, venous access and specific components (e.g. lipid emulsion, amino acids, glucose, micronutrients and electrolytes) or the whole product. Incident outcomes ranging from near miss to death were reported. Intervention studies looked at the impact on patient safety incidents of computerised tools, healthcare processes, e.g. pharmacist screening, and standardisation. One study demonstrated more severe outcomes with paediatric than with adult PN. CONCLUSIONS This review demonstrates the vast range of PN-related patient safety incidents in all patient age groups and all medication process stages. The need for a national study looking at patient safety incidents related to PN in England is highlighted.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Details of intestinal failure in the Finnish adult population are unknown. This study aimed to specify the intestinal failure prevalence and to clinically characterize the patient population in Finland. METHODS All Finnish healthcare units with the potential of providing parenteral support received an electronic survey to report whether they had patient(s) aged ≥18 years on long-term (≥120 days) parenteral support due to intestinal failure. Patient details came from patient records. IBM SPSS v.25 was used to analyze descriptive statistics. RESULTS Of the 74 patients, 52 were included after confirming parenteral support indication from the records. The adult intestinal failure prevalence for 2017 was 11.7 per million, 95% confidence interval: 8.9-15.3. Most patients were women (69%), and the median age was 62 (45-72) years. Short bowel syndrome was the most frequent intestinal failure mechanism (73%), and surgical complication the most frequent underlying diagnosis (29%). Of patients, 66% represented the clinical classification category parenteral nutrition 1 or parenteral nutrition 2. Median Charlson Comorbidity Index was one (0-2.8); hypertension (37%) and diabetes (23%) were the most frequent comorbidities. Patients received seven (3.5-7) parenteral support infusions weekly, and eight patients (15%) were on fluids and electrolytes only. The median duration of parenteral support was 27.5 (11.3-57.3) months. Ten patients ceased parenteral support during 2017 after a median of 20.0 (9.0-40.3) parenteral support months. Eight weaned off parenteral support, one ran out of catheter sites, and one died. CONCLUSION Prevalence and patient characteristics of adult intestinal failure in Finland are similar to those in other Western countries.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Early enteral feeding practices are potentially modifiable risk factors for necrotising enterocolitis (NEC) in very preterm or very low birth weight (VLBW) infants. Observational studies suggest that conservative feeding regimens, including slowly advancing enteral feed volumes, reduce the risk of NEC. However, it is unclear whether slow feed advancement may delay establishment of full enteral feeding, and if it could be associated with infectious morbidities secondary to prolonged exposure to parenteral nutrition. OBJECTIVES To determine the effects of slow rates of enteral feed advancement on the risk of NEC, mortality, and other morbidities in very preterm or VLBW infants. SEARCH METHODS We searched CENTRAL (2020, Issue 10), Ovid MEDLINE (1946 to October 2020), Embase via Ovid (1974 to October 2020), Maternity and Infant Care database (MIDIRS) (1971 to October 2020), CINAHL (1982 to October 2020), and clinical trials databases and reference lists of retrieved articles for eligible trials. SELECTION CRITERIA We included randomised or quasi-randomised controlled trials that assessed effects of slow (up to 24 mL/kg/d) versus faster rates of advancement of enteral feed volumes on the risk of NEC in very preterm or VLBW infants. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS Two review authors separately evaluated trial risk of bias, extracted data, and synthesised effect estimates using risk ratio (RR), risk difference (RD), and mean difference. We used the GRADE approach to assess the certainty of evidence. Outcomes of interest were NEC, all-cause mortality, feed intolerance, and invasive infection. MAIN RESULTS We included 14 trials involving a total of 4033 infants (2804 infants participated in one large trial). None of the trials masked parents, caregivers, or investigators. Risk of bias was otherwise low. Most infants were stable very preterm or VLBW infants of birth weight appropriate for gestation. About one-third of all infants were extremely preterm or extremely low birth weight (ELBW), and about one-fifth were small for gestational age, growth-restricted, or compromised as indicated by absent or reversed end-diastolic flow velocity in the foetal umbilical artery. Trials typically defined slow advancement as daily increments of 15 to 24 mL/kg, and faster advancement as daily increments of 30 to 40 mL/kg. Meta-analyses showed that slow advancement of enteral feed volumes probably has little or no effect on the risk of NEC (RR 1.06, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.83 to 1.37; RD 0.00, 95% CI -0.01 to 0.02; 14 trials, 4026 infants; moderate-certainty evidence) or all-cause mortality prior to hospital discharge (RR 1.13, 95% CI 0.91 to 1.39; RD 0.01, 95% CI -0.01 to 0.02; 13 trials, 3860 infants; moderate-certainty evidence). Meta-analyses suggested that slow advancement may slightly increase feed intolerance (RR 1.18, 95% CI 0.95 to 1.46; RD 0.05, 95% CI -0.02 to 0.12; 9 trials, 719 infants; low-certainty evidence) and may slightly increase the risk of invasive infection (RR 1.14, 95% CI 0.99 to 1.31; RD 0.02, 95% CI -0.00 to 0.05; 11 trials, 3583 infants; low-certainty evidence). AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS The available trial data indicate that advancing enteral feed volumes slowly (daily increments up to 24 mL/kg) compared with faster rates probably does not reduce the risk of NEC, death, or feed intolerance in very preterm or VLBW infants. Advancing the volume of enteral feeds at a slow rate may slightly increase the risk of invasive infection.

Abstract
Hypertriglyceridemia is a metabolic complication associated with parenteral nutrition (PN). It is unknown if patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) secondary to COVID-19 are more at risk. Our aim was to describe the incidence, risk factors and clinical impact of hypertriglyceridemia in critically ill patients with ARDS-COVID-19 receiving PN. We designed a cohort study of patients with ARDS-COVID-19 infection that required admission to critical care units and nutritional support with PN. Individual PN prescriptions for macronutrients and insulin were provided. Lipid emulsion contained fish oil (SMOFlipid® or Lipoplus®). Hypertriglyceridemia was defined as plasma levels above 400 mg/dL. Eighty-seven patients, 66.6% men, 60.1 ± 10.8 years old, BMI 29.1 ± 5.6 kg/m2, 71% of whom received lopinavir/ritonavir, 56% received Propofol and 55% received Tocilizumab were included. The incidence of hypertriglyceridemia was 37 × 100 patient-days with PN. This complication was more frequent in obese patients (OR 3.34; 95% CI, 2.35-4.33) and in those treated with lopinavir/ritonavir (OR 4.98; 95% CI, 3.60-6.29) or Propofol (OR 2.45; 95% CI, 1.55-3.35). Total mortality was 33.3%, similar between the type of lipid emulsion (p = 0.478). On average, patients with hypertriglyceridemia had a longer requirement of PN compared to the group without elevated triglycerides (TG), probably because of their longer survival (p = 0.001). TG higher than 400 mg/dL was not a protective factor for mortality (OR 0.31; 95% CI, 0.01-1.30). In conclusion, the incidence of hypertriglyceridemia was 37 × 100 patient-days with PN. The risk of this complication is associated with obesity and the use of lopinavir/ritonavir or Propofol.

Abstract
(1) Background: Recent evidence reported a reduced tolerance of macronutrient parenteral intakes in subjects in critically ill conditions. We designed a prospective cohort study to evaluate the effects of hyperglycemia (HG) related to parenteral nutrition (PN) on neurodevelopment (NDV) in survived preterm newborns. (2) Methods: Enrolled newborns with gestational age < 32 weeks or birth weight < 1500 g, were divided in two cohorts: (A) exposed to moderate or severe HG (glucose blood level > 180 mg/dL) in the first week of life; (B) not exposed to HG. We considered as the primary outcome the rate of preterm newborns survived without NDV delay at 24 months of life, evaluated with Bayley Scales of Infants Development III edition. (3) Results: We analyzed 108 (A 32 vs. B 76) at 24 months of life. Newborns in cohort A showed a higher rate of cognitive and motor delay (A 44% vs. B 22 %, p = 0.024; A 38% vs. B 8%, p < 0.001). When adjusting for background characteristics, HG remained a risk factor for motor delay. (4) Conclusions: High nutritional intakes through PN soon after birth increase the risk of HG. The consequences of this severe metabolic complication affect long-term NDV and survival in preterm newborns.

Abstract
To meet their requirements for bone mineralization, it is recommended that preterm infants receive nutritional support containing calcium and phosphate. There are no clear data on the incidence of osteopenia of prematurity (OFP) in preterm infants without phosphate supplementation.This study aimed to investigate the incidence of OFP in preterm infants without phosphate supplementation and its relationship with the duration of parenteral nutrition (PN).This was a prospective and observational study.This study included 30 infants aged <32 gestational weeks and weighed <1500 g at birth. All infants received PN according to a standard protocol, beginning on day 1 with calcium, without phosphate. Starting from the first day of life, all infants received human milk without fortifiers. Oral vitamin D (400 IU/d) was administered when enteral nutrition reached 100 mL/kg/d.The diagnosis of OFP was based on radiographs that were taken of both wrists. Serum alkaline phosphatase (ALP) was measured 3 times: at the start of PN (ALP 1), at the end of PN (ALP 2), and at discharge or the expected due date (ALP 3). Radiographs were obtained on the same day as ALP 3. The duration of PN was analyzed in the presence of OFP using receiver operating characteristic curve analysis.Among the 30 infants, 13 (43%) were diagnosed with OFP. The duration of PN was significantly longer in the OFP group than in the group without OFP (16 vs 12 days; P < .05). The provision of PN for >15 days significantly increased the risk of OFP (odds ratio, 5.40; 95% confidence interval, 1.12-26.04; P = .035).We found a high incidence of OFP in preterm infants without phosphate supplementation. An association was found between the duration of PN and the incidence of OFP. Further research is needed to prevent the development of osteopenia in preterm infants.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To review the current evidence evaluating early versus delayed commencement of parenteral nutrition in infants. RECENT FINDINGS Recent studies in very premature infants (<32 weeks gestation) have shown that early commencement of parenteral nutrition immediately after birth improves physical growth. However, there are concerns that early use of very high dose of amino-acids (>3.5 g/kg/day immediately after birth) may cause metabolic acidosis, elevated blood urea, slower head growth and refeeding-hypophosphatemia syndrome. A recent multicentre randomized controlled trial found that commencement of parenteral nutrition within 24-h of admission increases the risk of infections and prolongs the duration of ventilation and ICU stay in full-term neonates, older infants and children. The study also found that delaying to day 8 of admission increased the risk of hypoglycaemia. SUMMARY Benefits of commencing parenteral nutrition on the first day of life appear to outweigh risks in very premature infants; however, it is prudent to avoid early very high doses of amino acids (>3.5 g/kg/day) in the first few days of life. In moderate to late preterm infants, if enteral feeds are not tolerated by 72 h, it is reasonable to commence parenteral nutrition. In full-term and older infants, it is preferable to avoid parenteral nutrition within 24 h of admission and consider delaying by further few days. Diligent monitoring of blood glucose, serum phosphate and other parameters is essential while on parenteral nutrition.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW In July 2019, the Pharmacovigilance Risk Assessment Committee (PRAC) of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) recommended light protection of all parenteral nutrition (PN) solutions containing amino acids (AA) and/or lipids, with or without admixture of vitamins or trace elements, during administration for preterm infants, term infants and children less than 2 years of age. The aim of the present paper was to review the available evidence and to provide recommendations for in hospital and home PN light protection in children. RECENT FINDINGS Lipid emulsions and multivitamins are susceptible to photooxidation and generation of oxidation products. There is no conclusive evidence to justify recommending light protection for PN solutions without lipid emulsions and/or vitamins during administration (solutions containing e.g. AA, glucose, electrolytes, or trace elements). SUMMARY Lipid emulsions and/or vitamins containing PN solutions should be protected from light during administration (bags and tubing) to reduce the generation of oxidation products.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Several diseases and clinical conditions can affect enteral nutrition and adequate gastrointestinal uptake. In this respect, parenteral nutrition (PN) is necessary for the provision of deficient trace elements. However, some essential elements, such as manganese (Mn) may be toxic to children and adults when parenterally administered in excess, leading to toxic, especially neurotoxic effects. AREAS COVERED Here, we briefly provide an overview on Mn, addressing its sources of exposure, the role of Mn in the etiology of neurodegenerative diseases, and focusing on potential mechanisms associated with Mn-induced neurotoxicity. In addition, we discuss the potential consequences of overexposure to Mn inherent to PN. EXPERT OPINION In this critical review, we suggest that additional research is required to safely set Mn levels in PN, and that eliminating Mn as an additive should be considered by physicians and nutritionists on a case by case basis in the meantime to avoid the greater risk of neurotoxicity by its presence. There is a need to better define clinical biomarkers for Mn toxicity by PN, as well as identify new effective agents to treat Mn-neurotoxicity. Moreover, we highlight the importance of the development of new guidelines and practice safeguards to protect patients from excessive Mn exposure and neurotoxicity upon PN administration.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Preterm infants receive long-term parenteral nutrition (PN) for gastrointestinal immaturity. This study aimed to determine if mixed lipid emulsions containing fish oil decrease the incidence of PN-associated cholestasis by reducing oxidative stress and providing an anti-inflammatory effect. METHODS This retrospective cohort study enrolled 399 very low birth weight premature infants (gestational age ≤32 weeks) between January 2009 and November 2017 at a single neonatal intensive care unit. Preterm infants received total PN with either mixed lipid emulsion including fish oil (SMOFlipid®, n = 195) or soybean oil-based lipid emulsion (Lipovenoes®, n = 204) for at least 7 days. We compared the outcomes of PN-associated cholestasis, comorbidities, and mortality between the groups. RESULTS The incidence of PN-associated cholestasis was significantly lower in the SMOFlipid group than in the Lipovenoes group. The duration to full feeding days was significantly shorter in the SMOFlipid group compared with the Lipovenoes group. Relevant complications, such as severe retinopathy of prematurity and bronchopulmonary dysplasia, were also significantly reduced in the SMOFlipid group compared with the Lipovenoes group. CONCLUSION In premature infants, PN with fish oil-based lipid emulsions is associated with a lower incidence of PN-associated cholestasis compared with soybean oil-based lipid emulsions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Positively charged amino acids (AA) such as arginine/lysine are coinfused with radiolabeled somatostatin analogs to reduce rates of nephrotoxicity. In the phase 3 NETTER-1 trial, commercial AA formulations were used in association with 177Lu-DOTA-0-Tyr3-Octreotate (DOTATATE). These formulations were also used in an early-access program (EAP) before regulatory approval of 177Lu-DOTATATE. Our program transitioned to compounded l-arginine 2.5%/l-lysine 2.5% in 0.9% NaCl after commercial approval of 177Lu-DOTATATE. We sought to compare rates of nausea/vomiting with arginine/lysine versus commercial parenteral AA formulations. METHODS Rates of nausea/vomiting of all 20 EAP patients who received commercial AAs (15% Clinisol) were compared with the first 29 patients to receive 177Lu-DOTATATE after commercial approval and coinfused with arginine/lysine. Other parameters reviewed included infusion rates, need for PRN nausea medications, and other toxicities. RESULTS Seventeen percent of patients who received compounded arginine/lysine experienced nausea, compared with 100% of patients in the EAP group (P < 0.0001). Infusion-related reactions occurred in 3% of the arginine/lysine cohort versus 35% in the EAP group. Infusion durations were substantially shorter in the arginine/lysine cohort (reduced by 61%). CONCLUSIONS Coinfusions of arginine/lysine with radiolabeled somatostatin analogs result in substantially lower rates of nausea/vomiting compared with commercial AA formulations designed for parenteral nutrition.

Abstract
Parenteral nutrition (PN) is a life-saving nutritional therapy for those situations when patients are unable to receive enteral nutrition. However, despite a multitude of benefits offered by PN, it is associated with a variety of side effects, most notably parenteral nutrition-associated liver disease (PNALD). Adverse effects of PN on other organ systems, such as brain and cardiovascular system, have been poorly studied. There have been several case reports, studies, and a recent animal study highlighting cardiotoxic effects of PN; however, much remains unclear about the underlying mechanisms causing cardiac damage. In this review, we propose a series of potential mechanisms behind PN-associated heart injury, and we provide an overview of therapeutic strategies and recent scientific advances.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Parenteral nutrition (PN) is critical for the growth and development of premature neonates who are unable to reach nutrition goals enterally. Using soybean-oil emulsions in PN is a risk factor for cholestasis, leading to alternative dosing strategies including a reduction in total lipid prescribed. Recently, SMOFlipid has been utilized with the goal of avoiding cholestasis while maintaining energy intake. The aim of our study was to compare the incidence of PN-associated cholestasis (PNAC) in patients admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) who received either Intralipid 20% or SMOFlipid. METHODS This single-center, retrospective study evaluated all NICU patients who received PN for ≥14 days. Patients who received SMOFlipid were compared with those who received Intralipid. The primary end point was incidence of PNAC. Secondary end points included (1) prevalence of elevated liver function tests; (2) effect on select laboratory parameters; (3) development of PNAC by age; and (4) incidence of retinopathy of prematurity. RESULTS A total of 136 neonates were included. Nine of 55 patients (16.4%) in the Intralipid group and 2 of 81 patients (2.5%) in the SMOFlipid group developed cholestasis, defined as direct bilirubin > 2 mg/dL or direct bilirubin > 20% of total bilirubin, when total bilirubin is >5 mg/dL, on or before 30 days post initiation of PN (P = .007). CONCLUSION Use of SMOFlipid as the lipid emulsion component of PN may be beneficial in prevention of PNAC in NICU patients that are receiving PN for ≥2 weeks.

Growth of Head Circumference and Body Length in Preterm Infants Receiving a Multicomponent vs a Soybean-Based Lipid Emulsion: A Randomized Controlled Trial. JPEN J Parenter Enteral Nutr 2021; 45:94-101.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The growth of very low-birth-weight (VLBW) infants relies, to a large extent, on parenteral nutrition (PN) during the early weeks of life. Despite the parenteral nutrients supply, extrauterine growth restriction remains the main concern for these infants. A parenteral multicomponent lipid emulsion (MLE) might improve growth and neurological outcomes, delivering fats for brain growth that the traditional soybean-based lipid emulsion (SLE) fails to provide. We hypothesize that the use of an MLE in PN may reduce the loss of head circumference (HC) z-score from birth to 36 weeks' postmenstrual age (PMA) or at discharge compared with the use of an SLE in VLBW infants. METHODS Infants with BW ≤1250 g, without malformations or chromosomal abnormalities, were randomly assigned to receive an MLE or an SLE. The primary outcome was the change in HC z-score (HC Δ z-score) from birth to 36 weeks' PMA or at discharge. Secondary outcomes included the change in weight and length z-score (W Δ z-score and L Δ z-score) as well as incidence of late-onset sepsis and PN-associated cholestasis (PNAC). RESULTS Of the 128 infants randomized, 51 infants in the MLE group and 50 infants in the SLE group were analyzed. The MLE was significantly associated with a decreased loss in HC and length z-scores from birth to 36 weeks' PMA or at discharge. CONCLUSIONS This is the first randomized controlled trial providing the evidence that an MLE is associated with improved HC growth in comparison with a pure SLE.

Abstract
The goal of nutrition support is to provide the substrates required to match the bioenergetic needs of the patient and promote the net synthesis of macromolecules required for the preservation of lean mass, organ function, and immunity. Contemporary observational studies have exposed the pervasive undernutrition of critically ill patients and its association with adverse clinical outcomes. The intuitive hypothesis is that optimization of nutrition delivery should improve ICU clinical outcomes. It is therefore surprising that multiple large randomized controlled trials have failed to demonstrate the clinical benefit of restoring or maximizing nutrient intake. This may be in part due to the absence of biological markers that identify patients who are most likely to benefit from nutrition interventions and that monitor the effects of nutrition support. Here, we discuss the need for practical risk stratification tools in critical care nutrition, a proposed rationale for targeted biomarker development, and potential approaches that can be adopted for biomarker identification and validation in the field.

Abstract
Aim To assess the best energy intake in Parenteral Nutrition (PN) for preterm newborns, considering both possible benefits for growth and risk of complications. Methods Quasi-experimental study comparing two cohorts of newborns, receiving Energy-Enhanced vs. Standard PN (Cohort A, from 1st January 2015 to 31 January 2016 and Cohort B from 1st February 2016 to 31 March 2017; respectively) after implementation of a change in the PN protocol. The primary outcome measure was growth at 24 months of life. The PN associated complications were also measured. Results We enrolled 132 newborns in two Cohorts, similar for prenatal and postnatal clinical characteristics. Although, body weight and length at 24 months of life were significantly higher (p<0.05) in the Cohort A (11.1, 95% CI 10.6 to 11.6 Kg; 85.0 95% CI 83.8 to 86.2 cm) compared with Cohort B (10.4, 95% CI 9.9 to 10.9 Kg; 81.3 95% CI 79.7 to 82.8 cm), body weight and length Z-Score in the first 24 months of life were similar between the two Cohorts. The rate of PN associated complications was very high in both study Cohorts (up to 98% of enrolments). Multivariate analysis showed that length at 24 months was significantly associated with receiving standard PN (cohort A) in the first week of life and on the energy intake in the first week of life. We also found a marginally insignificant association between Cohort A assignment and body weight at 24 months of life (p = 0.060). Conclusions Energy-enhanced PN in early life has not significant effects on long-term growth in preterm newborns. The high prevalence of PN associated complications, poses concerns about the utility of high energy intake recommended by current guidelines for PN.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to evaluate the possibility of increasing the use of standardised parenteral nutrition (PN) as a replacement of individualized parenteral nutrition in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). The standardisation of the PN formulations has the potential to improve nutrient intakes, quality control, cost effectiveness and reduce prescription errors. In our hospital the individualized PN solutions are made by Chemists for premature babies born during the working days. We have been using standardised PN formulations for about two years for the preterm infants born during the weekend. The use of SPN is currently limited to the weekend, until our Chemists can prepare the IPN.In this study we describe the case of a sick low birth weight baby for whom we used for the first time the bags of a standardised PN "ready to use" since the sixth day of life for thirteen consecutive days. The baby was not a very low birth weight, but he needed parenteral nutrition because he was relatively unstable and he had a poor feeding tolerance. As result of the study, the baby growth was regular and the SPN were well tolerated. No adverse effects were reported.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) provides all nutritional needs intravenously. Although lifesaving, enthusiasm is significantly tempered due to side effects of liver and gut injury, as well as lack of mechanistic understanding into drivers of TPN injury. We hypothesized that the state of luminal nutritional deprivation with TPN drives alterations in gut-systemic signaling, contributing to injury, and tested this hypothesis using our ambulatory TPN model. METHODS A total of 16 one-week-old piglets were allocated randomly to TPN (n = 8) or enteral nutrition (EN, n = 8) for 3 weeks. Liver, gut, and serum were analyzed. All tests were two-sided, with a significance level of 0.05. RESULTS TPN resulted in significant hyperbilirubinemia and cholestatic liver injury, p = 0.034. Hepatic inflammation (cluster of differentiation 3 (CD3) immunohistochemistry) was higher with TPN (p = 0.021). No significant differences in alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or bile ductular proliferation were noted. TPN resulted in reduction of muscularis mucosa thickness and marked gut atrophy. Median and interquartile range for gut mass was 0.46 (0.30-0.58) g/cm in EN, and 0.19 (0.11-0.29) g/cm in TPN (p = 0.024). Key gut-systemic signaling regulators, liver farnesoid X receptor (FXR; p = 0.021), liver constitutive androstane receptor (CAR; p = 0.014), gut FXR (p = 0.028), G-coupled bile acid receptor (TGR5) (p = 0.003), epidermal growth factor (EGF; p = 0.016), organic anion transporter (OAT; p = 0.028), Mitogen-activated protein kinases-1 (MAPK1) (p = 0.037), and sodium uptake transporter sodium glucose-linked transporter (SGLT-1; p = 0.010) were significantly downregulated in TPN animals, whereas liver cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase (CyP7A1) was substantially higher with TPN (p = 0.011). CONCLUSION We report significant alterations in key hepatobiliary receptors driving gut-systemic signaling in a TPN piglet model. This presents a major advancement to our understanding of TPN-associated injury and suggests opportunities for strategic targeting of the gut-systemic axis, specifically, FXR, TGR5, and EGF in developing ameliorative strategies.

Abstract
Premature infants and children with intestinal failure (IF) or short bowel syndrome are susceptible to intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD, previously referred to as parenteral nutrition-associated liver disease, or PNALD). IFALD in children is characterized by progressive cholestasis and biliary fibrosis, and steatohepatitis in adults, and is seen in individuals dependent upon prolonged administration of PN. Many factors have been proposed as contributing to the pathogenesis of IFALD. In recent years, the focus has been on the potential synergistic roles of the intestinal microbiome, increased intestinal permeability, activation of hepatic innate immune pathways, and the use of intravenous soybean-oil-based intravenous lipid emulsions (SO-ILE). In vitro and in vivo studies have identified stigmasterol, a component of the plant sterols present in SO-ILE, as playing an important role. Although various strategies have been adopted to prevent or reverse IFALD, most suffer from a lack of strong evidence supported by well-designed, prospective clinical trials with clearly defined endpoints. Reduction in the amount of SO-ILEs or replacement with non-SO-ILEs has been shown to reverse IFALD although safety and long-term effectiveness have not been studied. Medical and surgical modalities to increase intestinal adaptation, advance enteral feedings, and prevent central line bloodstream infections are also important preventative strategies. There is a continued need to conduct high-quality, prospective trials with clearly define outcome measures to ascertain the potential benefits of these strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recently conducted randomised controlled trials (RCTs) suggest that late commencement of parenteral nutrition (PN) may have clinical benefits in critically ill adults and children. However, there is currently limited evidence regarding the optimal timing of commencement of PN in critically ill term and late preterm infants. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the benefits and safety of early versus late PN in critically ill term and late preterm infants. SEARCH METHODS We used the standard search strategy of Cochrane Neonatal to search the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (5 April 2019), MEDLINE Ovid (1966 to 5 April 2019), Embase Ovid (1980 to 5 April 2019), EMCare (1995 to 5 April 2019) and MEDLINE via PubMed (1966 to 5 April 2019). We searched for ongoing or recently completed clinical trials, and also searched the grey literature and reference lists of relevant publications. SELECTION CRITERIA We included RCTs comparing early versus late initiation of PN in term and late preterm infants. We defined early PN as commencing within 72 hours of admission, and late PN as commencing after 72 hours of admission. Infants born at 37 weeks' gestation or more were defined as term, and infants born between 34 and 36+6 weeks' gestation were defined as late preterm. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS Two review authors independently selected the trials, extracted the data and assessed the risk of bias. Treatment effects were expressed using risk ratio (RR) and risk difference (RD) for dichotomous outcomes and mean difference (MD) for continuous data. The quality of the evidence was assessed using the GRADE approach. MAIN RESULTS Two RCTs were eligible for inclusion. Data were only available from a subgroup (including 209 term infants) from one RCT in children (aged from birth to 17 years) conducted in Belgium, the Netherlands and Canada. In that RCT, children with medium to high risk of malnutrition were included if a stay of 24 hours or more in the paediatric intensive care unit (PICU) was expected. Early PN and late PN were defined as initiation of PN within 24 hours and after day 7 of admission to PICU, respectively. The risk of bias for the study was considered to be low for five domains and high for two domains. The subgroup of term infants that received late PN had significantly lower risk of in-hospital all-cause mortality (RR 0.35, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.14 to 0.87; RD -0.10, 95% CI -0.18 to -0.02; number needed to treat for an additional beneficial outcome (NNTB) = 10; 1 trial, 209 participants) and neonatal mortality (death from any cause in the first 28 days since birth) (RR 0.29, 95% CI 0.10 to 0.88; RD -0.09, 95% CI -0.16 to -0.01; NNTB = 11; 1 trial, 209 participants). There were no significant differences in rates of healthcare-associated blood stream infections, growth parameters and duration of hospital stay between the two groups. Neurodevelopmental outcomes were not reported. The quality of evidence was considered to be low for all outcomes, due to imprecision (owing to the small sample size and wide confidence intervals) and high risk of bias in the included studies. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS Whilst late commencement of PN in term and late preterm infants may have some benefits, the quality of the evidence was low and hence our confidence in the results is limited. Adequately powered RCTs, which evaluate short-term as well as long-term neurodevelopmental outcomes, are needed.

Abstract
Development of intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD) is a common complication of long-term parenteral nutrition (PN) in children and adults. The molecular and cellular mechanisms and the phases of IFALD are now being delineated. Components of PN lipid emulsions, including plant sterols, interact with hepatic innate immune activation promoted by products of gut bacterial overgrowth/dysbiosis and altered intestinal barrier function (gut-liver axis) and by episodes of sepsis to cause cholestasis and IFALD. New therapeutic strategies, including modifications of intravenous lipid emulsions to reduce pro-inflammatory fatty acids and plant sterol content, can lower the risk of IFALD, reverse cholestasis, and reduce complications, although the significance of persisting hepatic fibrosis is unknown. This review will provide an update on advances in the pathogenesis of IFALD, newer therapeutic and preventative strategies, and challenges that confront managing patients with IFALD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intestinal failure (IF) and its management are associated with an increased likelihood of infectious complications. This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence and potential risk factors for nosocomial infections (NIs) in hospitalized adult patients with IF. METHODS In total, 259 eligible patients with IF admitted to a single clinical nutrition center in a tertiary referral hospital from January 1, 2012, to January 1, 2019, were retrospectively identified. NIs were defined according to the 2008 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention criteria. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify independent risk factors for NIs. RESULTS The mean age of the study population was 47.0 ± 17.7 years, and 158 (61.0%) were men. The mean body mass index was 16.2 ± 2.9 kg/m2 , and 219 (84.6%) were diagnosed with malnutrition. The prevalence of NIs was 25.5% (113 NIs in 66 patients). The most common NIs were pneumonia (14.3%), bacteremia of unknown origin (13.5%), catheter-related bloodstream infection (5.0%), lower respiratory tract infection (5.0%), surgical site infection (3.9%), and urinary tract infection (1.9%). Multivariate analysis revealed that decreased serum albumin level (odds ratio [OR], 0.884; 95% CI, 0.883-0.978, P < .05), presence of gallbladder stones or cholestasis (OR, 3.144; 95% CI, 1.044-9.464; P < .05), and prolonged parenteral nutrition (PN) use (OR, 1.072; 95% CI, 1.039-1.105; P < .001) were independent predictors for NIs. CONCLUSIONS NIs remain prevalent in hospitalized adult patients with IF. Prolonged PN use was one of the most significant predictors for NIs.
