Tabone T, Mooney P, Donnellan C. Intestinal failure-associated liver disease: Current challenges in screening, diagnosis, and parenteral nutrition considerations. Nutr Clin Pract 2024; 39:1003-1025. [PMID: 38245851 DOI: 10.1002/ncp.11116] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2023] [Revised: 12/19/2023] [Accepted: 12/25/2023] [Indexed: 01/22/2024] Open
Abstract
Intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD) is a serious life-limiting complication that can occur throughout the clinical course of intestinal failure and its management by parenteral nutrition (PN). Despite this, there is a lack of a standardized definition for IFALD, which makes this insidious condition increasingly difficult to screen and diagnose in clinical practice. Attenuating the progression of liver disease before the onset of liver failure is key to improving morbidity and mortality in these patients. This requires timely detection and promptly addressing reversible factors. Although there are various noninvasive tools available to the clinician to detect early fibrosis or cirrhosis in various chronic liver disease states, these have not been validated in the patient population with IFALD. Such tools include biochemical composite scoring systems for fibrosis, transient elastography, and dynamic liver function tests. This review article aims to highlight the existing real need for an accurate, reproducible method to detect IFALD in its early stages. In addition, we also explore the role PN plays in the pathogenesis of this complex multifactorial condition. Various aspects of PN administration have been implicated in the etiology of IFALD, including the composition of the lipid component, nutrient excess and deficiency, and infusion timing. We aim to highlight the clinical relevance of these PN-associated factors in the development of IFALD and how these can be managed to mitigate the progression of IFALD.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Home parenteral nutrition (HPN) is the primary treatment modality for patients with chronic intestinal failure, one of the least common organ failures. This article provides a retrospective analysis of the data collected on HPN patients in the Czech Republic over the past 30 years. METHODS National registry data were collected using a standardised online form based on the OASIS registry (Oley - A.S.P.E.N. Information System) across all centres providing HPN in the Czech Republic. Data collected prospectively from adult patients in the HPN program were analysed in the following categories: epidemiology, demographics, underlying syndrome, diagnosis, complications, and teduglutide therapy prevalence. RESULTS The registry identified a total of 1,838 adult patient records, reflecting almost 1.5 million individual catheter days. The prevalence of HPN has risen considerably over the last few decades, currently reaching 5.5 per 100,000 population. The majority of patients have short bowel syndrome and GI obstruction, with cancer being the most prevalent underlying disease. Catheter-related bloodstream infections have been the most prevalent acute complication. However, the incidence in 2022 was only 0.15 per 1,000 catheter days. The study also observed an increase in the prevalence of patients on palliative HPN over the last decade. CONCLUSION This study presents a thorough analysis of data from the Czech REgistr Domaci NUtricni Podpory (REDNUP) registry. It shows an increasing prevalence of HPN, namely, in the palliative patient group. The sharing of national data can improve understanding of this rare condition and facilitate the development of international guidelines.

A comparison of health-related quality of life in chronic intestinal failure and end-stage kidney disease: A cross-sectional study. JPEN J Parenter Enteral Nutr 2024; 48:184-191.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is inequal access to treatment and scarce evidence on how the disease burden in chronic intestinal failure (CIF) compares to other chronic nonmalignant types of organ failure. Therefore, we compared the health-related quality of life (HRQOL) of people with CIF with that of people with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) receiving hemodialysis (HD). These groups were selected for comparison as they have similar treatment characteristics. We hypothesized that people treated with HD and people with CIF had similarly poor HRQOL. METHODS HRQOL was evaluated and compared in a cross-sectional study of adult people with CIF and people with ESKD HD at a tertiary hospital in Denmark, using the Short-Form 36 (SF-36). RESULTS One hundred forty-one people with CIF and 131 people with ESKD receiving HD were included in the analysis. Both groups reported low scores (<50) for HRQOL on general health, vitality, and role limitation-physical. People with ESKD receiving HD had significantly lower scores than people with CIF regarding physical functioning, general health, and vitality when adjusted for sex and age. No significant difference was found for any other SF-36 domain. CONCLUSION HRQOL was similarly and significantly reduced in people with CIF and in people with ESKD receiving HD. People with ESKD receiving HD had significantly poorer HRQOL than people with CIF in some aspects of physical and mental health. Access to home parenteral support treatment varies among countries that typically provide HD, suggesting an inequality in healthcare based on the type of organ failure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS In 2016, ESPEN published the guideline for Chronic Intestinal Failure (CIF) in adults. An updated version of ESPEN guidelines on CIF due to benign disease in adults was devised in order to incorporate new evidence since the publication of the previous ESPEN guidelines. METHODS The grading system of the Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network (SIGN) was used to grade the literature. Recommendations were graded according to the levels of evidence available as A (strong), B (conditional), 0 (weak) and Good practice points (GPP). The recommendations of the 2016 guideline (graded using the GRADE system) which were still valid, because no studies supporting an update were retrieved, were reworded and re-graded accordingly. RESULTS The recommendations of the 2016 guideline were reviewed, particularly focusing on definitions, and new chapters were included to devise recommendations on IF centers, chronic enterocutaneous fistulas, costs of IF, caring for CIF patients during pregnancy, transition of patients from pediatric to adult centers. The new guideline consist of 149 recommendations and 16 statements which were voted for consensus by ESPEN members, online in July 2022 and at conference during the annual Congress in September 2022. The Grade of recommendation is GPP for 96 (64.4%) of the recommendations, 0 for 29 (19.5%), B for 19 (12.7%), and A for only five (3.4%). The grade of consensus is "strong consensus" for 148 (99.3%) and "consensus" for one (0.7%) recommendation. The grade of consensus for the statements is "strong consensus" for 14 (87.5%) and "consensus" for two (12.5%). CONCLUSIONS It is confirmed that CIF management requires complex technologies, multidisciplinary and multiprofessional activity, and expertise to care for the underlying gastrointestinal disease and to provide HPN support. Most of the recommendations were graded as GPP, but almost all received a strong consensus.

Abstract
Intestinal failure (IF) is a complex medical condition that is caused by a constellation of disorders, resulting in the gut's inability to adequately absorb fluids and nutrients to sustain hydration, growth, and survival, thereby requiring the use of parenteral fluid and/or nutrition. Significant advancements in intestinal rehabilitation have resulted in improved survival rates for individuals with IF. There are distinct differences, however, related to etiology, adaptive potential and complications, and medical and surgical management when comparing children with adults. The purpose of this review is to contrast the similarities and differences between these two distinct groups and provide insight for future directions, as a growing population of pediatric patients will cross into the adult world for IF management.

Abstract
Malnutrition is a very common and often underrecognized condition among patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). This is most commonly due to increased nutritional requirements and gastrointestinal losses, along with reduced oral intake. Screening for malnutrition is an essential component of managing both inpatients and outpatients with IBD. Although enteral nutrition is the preferred route of supplementation, parenteral nutrition (PN) remains an important strategy and should be considered in certain situations, such as cases with short-bowel syndrome, high-output intestinal fistula, prolonged ileus, or small-bowel obstruction. Appropriate use of PN is critical in order to prevent associated complications. This review addresses the common indications for use of PN, the composition of PN, and the possible complications encountered with PN use, as well as scenarios of inappropriate PN use among patients with IBD. A clinical management algorithm for utilizing PN among patients with IBD is proposed in this review.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In short-bowel syndrome (SBS) treated with parenteral nutrition (PN), multiple complications can occur. The etiology of kidney stones may be linked to the underlying disease thrombosis, surgical complications, complications of therapy for cancer, Crohn's disease, metabolic abnormalities resulting from morphological and functional changes in the gastrointestinal tract, and to treatment used. We analyzed all these parameters in a large cohort of patients receiving home PN (HPN), to define the incidence of stones and groups of patients particularly at risk of stone formation. One of the objectiveswas to develop a predictive model of urolithiasis. METHODS This observational retrospective study included 459 patients with SBS recieving HPN in a single center. Patient records were evaluated for demographics, SBS etiology, and underlying disease, anatomy of the gastrointestinal tract, intestinal failure classification, nutrition regimen, and presence of urolithiasis. RESULTS Kidney stones were diagnosed in 24% of patients. Nodifferences in incidence were noted between the various etiologic groups. The incidence in patients with a colon in continuity and those with an end stoma was similar. The length of residual small bowel did not play a role in stone formation. There were no differences between patients according to the severity of intestinal failure. In patients treated with PN and limited oral feeding, the risk of urolithiasis was twice as high as in patients receiving PN only. CONCLUSIONS Patients developed urolithiasis with no relation to the SBS etiology. The risk of kidney stone formation was higher in patients recieving PN with oral feeding.

Metabolic Bone Disease in Children with Intestinal Failure and Long-Term Parenteral Nutrition: A Systematic Review. Nutrients 2022; 14:nu14050995.

Abstract
Metabolic bone disease (MBD) is a possible complication of intestinal failure (IF), with a multi-factorial pathogenesis. The reduction of bone density (BMD) may be radiologically evident before manifestation of clinical signs (bone pain, vertebral compression, and fractures). Diagnosis relies on dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Incidence and evolution of MBD are not homogeneously reported in children. The aim of this systematic review was to define the prevalence of MBD in IF children and to describe risk factors for its development. A comprehensive search of electronic bibliographic databases up to December 2021 was conducted. Randomized controlled trials; observational, cross-sectional, and retrospective studies; and case series published between 1970 and 2021 were included. Twenty observational studies (six case-control) were identified and mostly reported definitions of MBD based on DXA parameters. Although the prevalence and definition of MBD was largely heterogeneous, low BMD was found in up to 45% of IF children and correlated with age, growth failure, and specific IF etiologies. Data demonstrate that long-term follow-up with repeated DXA and calcium balance assessment is warranted in IF children even when PN dependence is resolved. Etiology and outcomes of MBD will be better defined by longitudinal prospective studies focused on prognosis and therapeutic perspectives.

Abstract
Chronic intestinal failure (CIF) is a rare but feared complication of Crohn’s disease. Depending on the remaining length of the small intestine, the affected intestinal segment, and the residual bowel function, CIF can result in a wide spectrum of symptoms, from single micronutrient malabsorption to complete intestinal failure. Management of CIF has improved significantly in recent years. Advances in home-based parenteral nutrition, in particular, have translated into increased survival and improved quality of life. Nevertheless, 60% of patients are permanently reliant on parenteral nutrition. Encouraging results with new drugs such as teduglutide have added a new dimension to CIF therapy. The outcomes of patients with CIF could be greatly improved by more effective prevention, understanding, and treatment. In complex cases, the care of patients with CIF requires a multidisciplinary approach involving not only physicians but also dietitians and nurses to provide optimal intestinal rehabilitation, nutritional support, and an improved quality of life. Here, we summarize current literature on CIF and short bowel syndrome, encompassing epidemiology, pathophysiology, and advances in surgical and medical management, and elucidate advances in the understanding and therapy of CIF-related complications such as catheter-related bloodstream infections and intestinal failure-associated liver disease.

Tridimensional bone imaging techniques such as high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography (HR-pQCT) allow the assessment of both compartmental volumetric densities and microarchitecture. Our aim was to evaluate these parameters in children and teenagers receiving long-term PN. This cross-sectional, case–control study included children older than 9 years undergoing PN for at least 2 years. They were age-, gender- and puberty-matched with healthy controls (1:2). Evaluation included biological assessment of bone metabolism (serum calcium, phosphate, and albumin; urinary calcium and creatinine; 25-OH vitamin D, osteocalcin and PTH), dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and HR-pQCT at the ultradistal tibia and radius. Results are presented as median [range]. Eleven patients (3 girls) with a median age of 16 [9–19] years were included. Bone parameters assessed by HR-pQCT at the ultradistal radius and tibia were similar in patients and controls. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels were higher (14 [7–115] vs 16 [12–27]) and osteocalcin levels were lower (44 [15–65] vs 65 [38–142]) in patients than in controls, although within the normal range. Conclusions: there were no differences for compartmental bone densities and microarchitecture in patients undergoing chronic PN. Further longitudinal studies are required to confirm these quite reassuring preliminary results.

Abstract
Intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD) remains one of the most common and serious complications of parenteral nutrition (PN), causing a wide spectrum of hepatic manifestations from steatosis and mild cholestasis to portal hypertension and end-stage liver failure. The prevalence of IFALD depends on the diagnostic criteria and ranges from 4.3% to 65%. Moreover, many factors are shown to contribute to its development, including nutrient deficiencies, toxicity of PN, infections, and alterations of bile acid metabolism and gut microbiota. Prevention and management of IFALD aim at ameliorating or eliminating the risk factors associated with IFALD. The use of PN formulations with a lower ratio omega-6-to-omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, cycle PN, optimization of enteral stimulation and prevention and early treatment of infections constitute the main therapeutic targets. However, failure of improvement and severe IFALD with end-stage liver failure should be considered as the indications of intestinal transplantation. The aim of this review is to provide an update of the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and diagnosis of IFALD in the adult population as well as to present a clinical approach of the therapeutic strategies of IFALD and present novel therapeutic targets.

Clin Nutr 2020; 40:1974-1982. [PMID: 32977995 DOI: 10.1016/j.clnu.2020.09.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2020] [Revised: 09/09/2020] [Accepted: 09/11/2020] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Children on long-term home parenteral nutrition (HPN) are at increased risk of suboptimal growth and metabolic bone disease (MBD) i.e. decreased bone mineral density (BMD). The aims of this cross-sectional study were to assess growth and bone health in children on long term HPN and to identify risk factors for MBD. METHODS Children above the age of 5 years, stable on HPN for more than 2 years were included. Medical files were reviewed retrospectively and included demographics, gestational age, birth weight and height, indication for PN, age at PN start, duration of PN, number of weekly PN infusions, weight-for-age and height-for-age (SD), body mass index (BMI, kg/m2) as well as blood and urine analyses at the time of Dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) measurements. All BMD values were adjusted to statural age which corresponds to the 50th percentile of height. Growth failure (height-for-age ≤ -2SD) and MBD (at least one BMD measurement ≤ -2SD) were analyzed according to the indication of PN, duration of PN and PN dependency index (PNDI) by comparing means and performing logistic regression analysis. PNDI is the ratio of non-protein energy intake in HPN to resting energy expenditure using Schofield equations. RESULTS Forty children were assessed at 12.4 ± 4.5 years of age. Mean age at PN start was 1.1 ± 3.6 y (median 0.5). The indications for PN were short bowel syndrome (SBS, n = 21), chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction syndrome (CIPOS, n = 10) and congenital enteropathies (CE, n = 9). The mean number of PN perfusions was 6 ± 1/week. PNDI was 110 ± 30%. The mean serum level of 25-OHD3 was suboptimal at 26.5 ± 9.1 ng/mL (66.2 ± 22.8 nmol/L). The mean concentrations of calcium, phosphorus, and parathyroid hormone (PTH) were in the normal ranges. Eight children (20%) had PTH levels above normal with low 25-OHD3 levels. The mean weight-for-age and height-for-age Z-scores SDS were 0.4 ± 0.9 and -0.5 ± 1.1 respectively. The actual height was lower than genetic target height (p < 0.001). The BMD Z-scores, adjusted to the 50th percentile of height, of the spine, the left femur and the whole body were: -1.1 ± 1.7, -1.2 ± 1.5 and -1.5 ± 1.8 SDS respectively. Children with CE had significantly lower BMD values than those with SBS and CIPOS (p = 0.01). Only two children had bone fractures after a mild trauma (5%). CONCLUSIONS All children on long-term PN, are at risk of low BMD. High dependency on PN (PNDI>120%) and very long-term PN (>10 years) do not appear to increase the risk of growth failure nor MBD. PN-related bone fractures were rare. Close follow-up remains mandatory.

Abstract
Medical nutrition therapy in critically ill patients remains challenging, not only because of the pronounced stress response with a higher risk for complications, but also due to their heterogeneity evolving from different phases of illness. The present review aims to address current knowledge and guidelines in order to summarize how they can be best implemented into daily clinical practice. Further studies are urgently needed to answer such important questions as best timing, route, dose, and composition of medical nutrition therapy for critically ill patients and to determine how to assess and to adapt to patients’ individual needs.

Abstract
Critically ill patients often require life support measures such as mechanical ventilation or haemodialysis. Despite the essential role of nutrition in patients’ recovery, the inappropriate use of medical nutrition therapy can have deleterious effects, as is the case with the use of respiratory, circulatory, or renal support. To increase awareness and to monitor the effects of inappropriate medical nutrition therapy, we propose to introduce the concept of nutritrauma in clinical practice, defined as metabolic adverse events related to the inappropriate administration of medical nutrition therapy or inadequate nutritional monitoring.

Abstract
Short bowel syndrome (SBS) occurs in patients who have had extensive resection. The primary physiologic consequence is malabsorption, resulting in fluid and electrolyte abnormalities and malnutrition. Nutrient digestion, absorption, and assimilation may also be diminished by disturbances in the production of bile acids and digestive enzymes. Small bowel dilation, dysmotility, loss of ileocecal valve, and anatomical changes combined with acid suppression and antimotility drugs increase the risk of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, further contributing to malabsorption. Metabolic changes that occur in SBS due to loss of colonic regulation of gastric and small bowel function can also lead to depletion of calcium, magnesium, and vitamin D, resulting in demineralization of bone and the eventual development of bone disease. Persistent inflammation, steroid use, parenteral nutrition, chronic metabolic acidosis, and renal insufficiency may exacerbate the problem and contribute to the development of osteoporosis. Multiple factors increase the risk of nephrolithiasis in SBS. In the setting of fat malabsorption, increased free fatty acids are available to bind to calcium, resulting in an increased concentration of unbound oxalate, which is readily absorbed across the colonic mucosa where it travels to the kidney. In addition, there is an increase in colonic permeability to oxalate stemming from the effects of unabsorbed bile salts. The risk of nephrolithiasis is compounded by volume depletion, metabolic acidosis, and hypomagnesemia, resulting in a decrease in renal perfusion, urine output, pH, and citrate excretion. This review examines the causes and treatments of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, bone demineralization, and nephrolithiasis in SBS.

Abstract
Patients receiving long-term parenteral nutrition (PN) are exposed to potentially toxic elements, which may accumulate in bone. Bone samples collected from seven PN patients (average = 14 years) and eighteen hip/knee samples were analyzed for Al as part of a previous investigation. Yttrium was serendipitously detected in the PN bone samples, leading to the present investigation of rare earth elements (REEs). A method for quantitating fifteen REEs in digested bone was developed based on tandem ICP-MS (ICP-MS/MS) to resolve spectral interferences. The method was validated against nine biological reference materials (RMs) for which assigned values were available for most REEs. Values found in two NIST bone SRMs (1400 Bone Ash and 1486 Bone Meal) compared favorably to those reported elsewhere. Method detection limits ranged from 0.9 ng g-1 (Tm) to 5.8 ng g-1 (Y). Median REE values in the PN patient group were at least fifteen times higher than the "control" group, and exceeded all previously reported data for eleven REEs in human bones. REE content in PN bones normalized to the Earth's upper crust revealed anomalies for Gd in two patients, likely from exposure to Gd-containing contrast agents used in MRI studies. A retrospective review of the medical record for one patient revealed an almost certain case of nephrogenic systemic fibrosis, associated with Gd exposure. Analysis of two current PN formulations showed traces of REEs with relative abundances similar to those found in the PN bones, providing convincing evidence that PN solutions were the primary source of REEs in this population.

Abstract
Metabolic acidosis and metabolic bone disease are frequent complications in patients on parenteral nutrition (PN). A common contributor to these complications could be a daily high renal acid load. This study aims to find a method for predicting the potential total acid load (PTAL) and the pH of the compounded parenteral nutrition mixtures. The pH and titratable acidity (TA) of fifty compounded mixtures were measured. The potential metabolic acid load (PMAL) was calculated by considering the amount of nutrients that are acid producers and consumers. The PTAL of the TPN mixtures was calculated by adding TA to PMAL. Multiple linear regression analyses were used to develop a predictive model for the TA and pH of the compounded mixtures. The predicted TA and pH values of the analyzed mixtures agreed with those measured (Passing-Bablok analysis). The PTAL was >50 mmol/day for 82% of the mixtures, >75 mmol/day for 40% of the mixtures, and >100 mmol/day for 22% of the mixtures. The prediction of the renal acid load in patients on long-term PN could allow more appropriate acid-base balancing. Moreover, predicting the pH of such mixtures could be useful to pharmacists to assess the stability and compatibility of the components in the compounded mixtures.

Abstract
Parenteral nutrition (PN) is a life-sustaining therapy in patients with intestinal failure who are unable to tolerate enteral feedings. Patient selection should be based on a thorough assessment to identify those at high nutrition risk based on both disease severity and nutritional status. This article reviews both the acute and chronic indications for PN as well as special formulation consideration in specific disease states, vascular access, and complications of both short-term and long-term PN.

Abstract
Intestinal failure (IF) is the inability of the gut to absorb necessary water, macronutrients (carbohydrate, protein, and fat), micronutrients, and electrolytes sufficient to sustain life and requiring intravenous supplementation or replacement. Acute IF (types 1 and 2) is the initial phase of the illness and may last for weeks to a few months, and chronic IF (type 3) from months to years. The challenge of caring for patients with IF is not merely the management of the underlying condition leading to IF or the correct provision of appropriate nutrition or both but also the prevention of complications, whether thromboembolic phenomenon (for example, venous occlusion), central venous catheter-related bloodstream infection, IF-associated liver disease, or metabolic bone disease. This review looks at recent questions regarding chronic IF (type 3), its diagnosis and management, the role of the multidisciplinary team, and novel therapies, including hormonal treatment for short bowel syndrome but also surgical options for intestinal lengthening and intestinal transplant.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metabolic bone disease is common in children receiving home parenteral nutrition (HPN) for intestinal failure (IF). Long-term evolution of bone mass in pediatric IF is poorly documented. The aims of this study were (1) to determine the prevalence of low bone mass (LBM) in children receiving HPN for IF, (2) to evaluate the evolution of total bone mineral content (TBMC) during HPN with dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA), and (3) to identify related factors. METHODS All children referred in our HPN center from 2004 to 2014 were eligible. Inclusion criteria were HPN dependence due to noninflammatory IF, at least 2 TBMC assessments, and HPN duration of at least 2 years at last DXA. TBMC was expressed in z score for ideal weight for height (WFH). LBM was defined by a TBMC WFH z score ≤-2 standard deviations (SD). RESULTS A total of 175 DXAs for 31 children were performed, mean of 5.6 ± 2.9 assessments per child. The median time between first and last DXA recorded was 6.2 years (0.7-16.6). At the first DXA, 14 children (45%) had a LBM. TBMC increased by +0.1 ± 0.04 SD per year of HPN (P = .012). The risk of LBM decreased with an odds ratio of 0.9 per year of HPN (95% confidence interval, 0.92-0.99; P = .018). Lean mass z score and calcium parenteral intakes were related to the TBMC improvement. CONCLUSION LBM is common in pediatric IF, but bone status could improve during HPN in these children.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metabolic bone disease (MBD) is a significant complication in patients receiving long-term home parenteral nutrition (HPN). Pamidronate has been poorly studied in this population. We examine the prevalence and risk factors for MBD and examine changes in bone mineral density (BMD) after pamidronate administration. METHODS First, a chart review of patients receiving HPN for >1 year was performed, and Pearson correlations were used to assess associations between MBD (defined as t score<-1) and risk factors. Second, the effect of IV pamidronate on BMD was studied prospectively in 11 HPN patients. Results were compared using a t-test. RESULTS Charts were reviewed in 25 patients (15 F, 10 M): age, 56.9+/-3.1 years; body mass index (BMI), 21.2+/-0.57 kg/m2; months receiving HPN, 113.2+/-0.09; and days per week receiving HPN, 5.08+/-0.39. MBD was present in 33% of patients for the spine and hip and in 50% for the femoral neck; 24% had previous fractures. There was a significant negative correlation between the duration of HPN and BMD (r=-0.40) for all measurements. From those patients, 11 received IV pamidronate for a mean of 22.2+/-5.4 months. At baseline, their mean HPN treatment duration was 10.6+/-6.3 years. Overall, BMD results showed a trend toward improvement in the mean t score of the spine and hip postpamidronate therapy (pre, -3.1+/-0.75; post, -2.9+/-0.69; p=.07). After excluding 2 patients receiving corticosteroids, the mean t score of the spine showed significant improvement (prepamidronate -3.4+/-0.57 vs post-pamidronate -3.1+/-0.65, p=.036). CONCLUSIONS In our HPN population, 76% had MBD and 24% had previous fractures. The results suggest that these patients may benefit from pamidronate. More studies are needed to assess the efficacy of pamidronate.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This paper traces the 29-year survival of Robert Thomas, who received home parenteral nutrition (PN), and contrasts his oral narrative with the clinical history of PN. METHODS Interviews, chart review, review of the literature, and historical analysis. RESULTS Bobby Thomas was part of an early group of patients scattered throughout the country who, with their medical team, provided the foundation for more successful survival with home PN. They learned together and taught numerous nutrition support clinicians the intricacies of patient management. The importance of the patient to the teaching function of new and experienced practitioners is highly critical. Patients like Robert Thomas gave practitioners firsthand evidence of both the tenacity of the human spirit and the complexity and difficulties of chronic illness and its treatments. CONCLUSIONS While Bobby struggled with the complications and difficulties that came with the disease and the treatment keeping him alive, his own experiences over 29 years, as told to his medical team during his treatment and to informed interviewers before he died, tell a story that is both intersecting and parallel to the medical history. Pioneering patients like Bobby Thomas confirm the possibility of survival. They also, through their own negotiations to maintain a sense of control, can live lives they themselves help define.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A proinflammatory state has been described in patients with intestinal failure. The prevalence of metabolic bone disease in this group is considerable. It is not known whether this proinflammatory state is related to bone parameters, though bone disease is recognized as a proinflammatory process in postmenopausal women. The purpose of this study was to examine whether inflammation was related to bone disease. METHODS Eight patients with parenteral nutrition (PN)-dependent intestinal failure but no recent infections or immunosuppressive medications had serum assayed for interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, and its receptors (TNFR-I and TNFR-II), C-reactive protein, and whole blood for lymphocyte proliferation. Routine clinical laboratory measures of vitamin D, parathyroid hormone, serum calcium, and phosphorus within 3 months of the inflammatory measures were compared by Pearson's correlation to the inflammatory measures. RESULTS Mean values for calcium, phosphorus, and albumin were normal, but 25-hydroxy vitamin D was reduced and parathyroid hormone and alkaline phosphatase elevated. Serum total calcium was negatively related to TNFR-II, TNF-alpha and positively to T-helper cells. Longer PN dependence was associated with inflammation and negatively with T-helper cells. CONCLUSIONS These preliminary findings are hypothesis generating only but support an association of low calcium and longer duration of PN with inflammation in patients with intestinal failure. Whether the inflammation results from vitamin D deficiency or the vitamin D deficiency develops secondary to excessive use of activated vitamin D to modulate inflammation from some other cause, such as a component of PN or repeated infectious challenge, requires further study.

Abstract
Patients requiring home parenteral nutrition (PN) may develop metabolic bone disease, the etiology of which can be multifactorial. We report a case of significantly low bone mass in a postmenopausal woman with history of short bowel syndrome, renal impairment, and previous radiation exposure who responded to intermittent subcutaneous administration of parathyroid hormone. Her bone mineral density normalized after she completed a course of 18 months of treatment, and a bone isotope scan was negative for skeletal malignancy.

Abstract
Metabolic bone disease (MBD) refers to the conditions that produce a diffuse decrease in bone density and strength because of an imbalance between bone resorption and bone formation. MBD can be a potential complication in patients receiving chronic parenteral nutrition (PN) therapy and the management of this condition presents a challenge for many clinicians. The etiology of PN-associated MBD is poorly understood, but traditional risk factors can include malnutrition, vitamin and mineral deficiencies, toxic contaminants in the PN solution, concomitant medications, and presence of certain disease states. Although additional studies are warranted to further elucidate the development and management of this condition, the following review discusses some of the important factors that may play a role in the genesis of PN-associated MBD and evaluates some potential strategies for the diagnosis and treatment of this complication.

Abstract
Short bowel syndrome (SBS) is defined as loss of bowel mass from surgical resection, congenital defects, or disease. Intestinal failure (IF) includes the subset of SBS unable to meet nutrition needs with enteral supplements and requires parenteral nutrition (PN). The parenteral treatment of SBS is now a half-century old. Recent pharmacologic treatment (GLP-2 analogues) has begun to make a significant impact in the care and ultimate management of these patients such that the possibility of reducing PN requirements in formerly PN-dependent patients is a now a real possibility. Finally, newer understanding and possible treatment for some of the complications related to IF have more recently evolved and will be an emphasis of this report. This review will focus on developments over the last 10 years with the goal of updating the reader to new advances in our understanding of the care and feeding of the SBS patient.

Abstract
Crohn's disease is a chronic and progressive inflammatory disorder of the gastrointestinal tract. Despite the availability of powerful immunosuppressants, many patients with Crohn's disease still require one or more intestinal resections throughout the course of their disease. Multiple resections and a progressive reduction in bowel length can lead to the development of short bowel syndrome, a form of intestinal failure that compromises fluid, electrolyte, and nutrient absorption. The pathophysiology of short bowel syndrome involves a reduction in intestinal surface area, alteration in the enteric hormonal feedback, dysmotility, and related comorbidities. Most patients will initially require parenteral nutrition as a primary or supplemental source of nutrition, although several patients may eventually wean off nutrition support depending on the residual gut anatomy and adherence to medical and nutritional interventions. Available surgical treatments focus on reducing motility, lengthening the native small bowel, or small bowel transplantation. Care of these complex patients with short bowel syndrome requires a multidisciplinary approach of physicians, dietitians, and nurses to provide optimal intestinal rehabilitation, nutritional support, and improvement in quality of life.

Abstract
Severe malabsorption of fluids and nutrients leads to intestinal failure (IF) where intravenous supplementation of nutrients and fluids is necessary to maintain health and/or growth. Long-term treatment of IF implies the start of intravenous support in the outpatient setting (home parenteral nutrition, HPN). Although HPN has proven lifesaving for many patients for more than four decades this strategy remains associated with complications that compromise the quality of life. Many problems relate to the presence of the venous access device and concern infections or vascular occlusion due to thrombosis. Patient training remains key to prevent these complications. Also metabolic problems may arise that involve liver function or composition or bone mineralization. While intestinal transplantation remains inferior to HPN as alternative treatment strategy in terms of survival, promising developments include the introduction of hormones that promote intestinal adaptation, mixed lipid emulsions that decrease liver problems and catheter lock solutions that prevent infections.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Chronic Intestinal Failure (CIF) is the long-lasting reduction of gut function, below the minimum necessary for the absorption of macronutrients and/or water and electrolytes, such that intravenous supplementation is required to maintain health and/or growth. CIF is the rarest organ failure. Home parenteral nutrition (HPN) is the primary treatment for CIF. No guidelines (GLs) have been developed that address the global management of CIF. These GLs have been devised to generate comprehensive recommendations for safe and effective management of adult patients with CIF. METHODS The GLs were developed by the Home Artificial Nutrition & Chronic Intestinal Failure Special Interest Group of ESPEN. The GRADE system was used for assigning strength of evidence. Recommendations were discussed, submitted to Delphi rounds, and accepted in an online survey of ESPEN members. RESULTS The following topics were addressed: management of HPN; parenteral nutrition formulation; intestinal rehabilitation, medical therapies, and non-transplant surgery, for short bowel syndrome, chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction, and radiation enteritis; intestinal transplantation; prevention/treatment of CVC-related infection, CVC-related occlusion/thrombosis; intestinal failure-associated liver disease, gallbladder sludge and stones, renal failure and metabolic bone disease. Literature search provided 623 full papers. Only 12% were controlled studies or meta-analyses. A total of 112 recommendations are given: grade of evidence, very low for 51%, low for 39%, moderate for 8%, and high for 2%; strength of recommendation: strong for 63%, weak for 37%. CONCLUSIONS CIF management requires complex technologies, multidisciplinary and multiprofessional activity, and expertise to care for both the underlying gastrointestinal disease and to provide HPN support. The rarity of the condition impairs the development of RCTs. As a consequence, most of the recommendations have a low or very low grade of evidence. However, two-thirds of the recommendations are considered strong. Specialized management and organization underpin these recommendations.

Abstract
PURPOSE To identify factors associated with an increased risk of fractures in Long-Gap Esophageal Atresia (LGEA) patients. Following implementation of a risk-stratified program, we hypothesized a reduction in fracture incidence within this potentially high-risk population. METHODS A retrospective review of LGEA-patients admitted between 2005 and 2014 was conducted. Symptomatic fractures with radiographic confirmation were defined as events. Univariate and multivariable analysis evaluated factors including admission weight-for-age z-score, primary versus secondary Foker process (FP), weight at Foker Stage I, days and episodes of paralysis, number of parenteral nutrition (PN) days, cumulative dose of loop diuretics adjusted for body weight and days exposed, and exposure to non-loop diuretics. A fracture-prevention protocol was initiated in 2012; incidence was evaluated pre and post-intervention. RESULTS Fifty-nine patients met inclusion criteria. Twenty-three (39%) patients in the entire cohort incurred at least one fracture during their hospitalization utilizing the Foker process. Given this high percentage, a targeted fracture-prevention protocol was initiated in 2012. Fracture incidence decreased from 48% prior to the protocol to 21% following the protocol (P = 0.046). Several variables that were associated with an increased risk of fractures on univariate analysis included prior esophageal anastomosis attempt (P = 0.008), number of separate episodes of paralysis (P = 0.002), exposure to non-loop diuretics (P = 0.006), cumulative loop diuretic dose (P < 0.001), as well as cumulative loop diuretic over days exposed (P < 0.001). Intensive care unit (ICU) stay (P = 0.002) and total length of hospitalization (P < 0.001) were also significantly longer among patients with a fracture. Number of separate episodes of paralysis was the only independent risk factor for the development of a fracture; patients having more than 3 episodes of paralysis had an estimated risk of fracture 15 times higher than those patients paralyzed only once or twice (O.R. 15.87, 95% C.I.: 1.47-171.23, P = 0.008). CONCLUSION Episodes of paralysis appeared to be the most significant risk factor for fractures in patients with LGEA who underwent the Foker procedure. The incidence of symptomatic fractures decreased significantly following implementation of a standardized protocol in this series of LGEA patients with continued prospective evaluation.

Abstract
Scleroderma (systemic sclerosis) is an autoimmune disease that can affect multiple organ systems. Gastrointestinal (GI) involvement is the most common organ system involved in scleroderma. Complications of GI involvement including gastroesophageal reflux disease, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, and chronic intestinal pseudoobstruction secondary to extensive fibrosis may lead to nutritional deficiencies in these patients. Here, we discuss pathophysiology, progression of GI manifestations, and malnutrition secondary to scleroderma, and the use of enteral and parenteral nutrition to reverse severe nutritional deficiencies. Increased mortality in patients with concurrent malnutrition in systemic sclerosis, as well as the refractory nature of this malnutrition to pharmacologic therapies compels clinicians to provide novel and more invasive interventions in reversing these nutritional deficiencies. Enteral and parenteral nutrition have important implications for patients who are severely malnourished or have compromised GI function as they are relatively safe and have substantial retrospective evidence of success. Increased awareness of these therapeutic options is important when treating scleroderma-associated malnutrition.

Abstract
PURPOSE Patients with intestinal failure (IF) are known to have impaired absorption of nutrients required for maintenance of skeletal mass. Rates and risk factors of low bone mineral density (BMD) are unknown in pediatric IF patients. METHODS Following IRB approval, patients with IF having undergone DXA scans were identified and laboratory, clinical, and nutritional intake variables were recorded. Low BMD was defined by a z-score of less than or equal to -2.0. Univariate followed by multivariable regression analysis was performed. RESULTS Sixty-five patients underwent a total of 99 routine DXA scans. Twenty-seven (41%) had vitamin D deficiency, 22 (34%) had low BMD, and nineteen (29%) had a history of fractures. Variables noted to be associated with low BMD (p<0.1) on univariate analysis were considered for multivariable regression. Multivariable regression identified WAZ and serum calcium levels (p<0.05) as independent predictors of low BMD z-score. None of the other evaluated factors were associated with the risk of low BMD. Low BMD was not associated with risk of fractures. CONCLUSION There is a significant incidence of low BMD in children with IF. WAZ and lower serum calcium levels are associated with risk of low BMD. Additional long term prospective studies are needed to further characterize the risk factors associated with low BMD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND No data about the influence of age and underlying diseases on home enteral nutrition (HEN)-related complications are reported in the literature. Herein, we retrospectively investigated this issue by analyzing HEN-related complications in a cohort of consecutive patients grouped according to the underlying disease and age. MATERIAL AND METHODS We reviewed the medical records of 101 patients referring to our team in 2007-2010 to obtain patients' demographic data, age, nutrition status, duration of HEN treatment, and type of HEN-related complications. They were divided in cancer and neurologic patients and subgrouped on the basis of their age. HEN-related complications were expressed as complication rates. RESULTS Patients with neurological diseases suffered a significantly higher number of complications as compared with cancer patients (P = .04). Age did not significantly influence complication rates. The mechanical complications were the most frequent. The majority of HEN-related complications were resolved at home. CONCLUSION Our data strongly suggest that HEN-related complications are influenced by underlying diseases and not by age. In neurologic patients, dementia, loss of autonomy, and the different therapies administered by PEG probably play an important role in increasing the number of HEN-related complications as compared with cancer patients. The most frequent complications can be managed at home, reducing the costs of hospitalizations and discomfort for the patient.

Abstract
Parenteral nutrition (PN) can be described as the "Intravenous administration of nutrients necessary to sustain life in those who would otherwise have died or suffered serious disease". PN is indicated in children who cannot be fully fed by the oral or intestinal route, usually as a result of intestinal failure. Intradialytic parenteral nutrition (IDPN) is rarely indicated in children on dialysis and does not confer a benefit over enteral supplements in the compliant patient with adequate intestinal function. Renal and metabolic consequences of PN are potentially life-threatening and include disorders of glucose homeostasis, acid-base and fluid and electrolyte disturbances, nephrolithiasis, impaired renal function and metabolic bone disease. Many of these complications are avoidable. Adequate clinical and biochemical assessment and monitoring of children receiving PN by a multidisciplinary nutrition support team is recommended to mitigate against the risks of these complications.

Abstract
Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) represents a therapeutic modality that could save the life of a patient with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) facing severe nutritional problems, by restoring the patient's impaired nutritional status. TPN does not compete with enteral nutrition (EN), the latter being the first choice for all patients having anatomically intact and functionally normal digestive tract. TPN allows bowel rest while supplying adequate calorific intake and essential nutrients, and removes antigenic mucosal stimuli. The value of TPN in malnourished patients with intestinal failure due to CD is beyond doubt. However, it is difficult to suggest TPN as a sole treatment for active CD. An increased rate of remission could not be expected by applying TPN. The utility of TPN is restricted to certain cases involving efforts to close enterocutaneous or other complicated fistulas in patients with fistulizing CD, the treatment of short bowel syndrome following extensive resections for CD, or when EN is impractical for other reasons. There are no advantages of TPN therapy over EN therapy regarding fistula healing. TPN has no influence on the surgical intervention rate and little benefit by bypassing the intestinal passage could be expected. Also TPN shows no advantage if the disease is chronically active. However, an optimal supply of nutrients improves bowel motility, intestinal permeability and nutritional status, and reduces inflammatory reactions. TPN might be associated with an increased risk of adverse events, although TPN undertaken by experienced teams does not cause more complications than does EN.

Abstract
AIM To assess bone health in pediatric intestinal failure (IF). METHODS A population-based cohort of 41 IF patients (age 9.9 years) underwent evaluation of bone mineral density (BMD), bone biochemistry, nutritional status and growth. Eleven patients remained on parenteral nutrition (PN) after 69 months. Thirty had weaned off PN 9.0 years earlier (mean), i.e. after 30 months on PN. RESULTS The majority of patients had lumbar spine or femoral BMD Z-score ≤-1.0 (70%), vitamin D deficiency (serum 25-hydroxyvitamin-D, S-25-OHD, <50 nmol/l, 41%) or secondary hyperparathyroidism (plasma parathyroid hormone >47 ng/l, 44%), equally during and after weaning off PN. Hyperparathyroidism was absent when S-25-OHD was >80 nmol/l. Until puberty, height (-1.4 to -0.8, age 1-12) and weight Z-scores (-1.3 to -0.5, age 1-16) were below the normal mean (p < 0.05). Small bowel length associated with S-25-OHD levels (r = 0.489, p = 0.013). In a multivariate model, time after weaning off PN (β = -0.597, p = 0.001), duration of PN (β = -0.466, p = 0.006) and calcium intake (β = -0.331, p = 0.035) predicted decreased lumbar spine BMD. CONCLUSIONS In pediatric IF, vitamin D insufficiency, secondary hyperparathyroidism and decreased BMD are common. BMD, vitamin D, calcium and nutritional status should be closely monitored during and after weaning off PN to ensure sufficient vitamin D and mineral substitution for normal growth and bone mass attainment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Children with chronic intestinal failure (IF) treated with long-term parenteral nutrition (PN) may present with low bone mineral density (BMD). The cause may reflect small body size or suboptimal bone mineralization. OBJECTIVE We assessed growth and bone health in children with severe IF. DESIGN Height, weight, and fracture history were recorded. The lumbar spine bone mass was measured in 45 consecutive patients (24 male subjects) aged 5-17 y receiving PN for a median of 5 y. BMD and bone mineral apparent density (BMAD) [ie, adjusted-for-height SD scores (SDSs)] were calculated. RESULTS Diagnoses were short bowel syndrome in 12 patients (27%), intestinal enteropathy in 20 patients (44%), and motility disorder in 13 patients (29%). Mean (±SD) weight, height, and body mass index SDSs were -0.8 ± 1.3, -1.80 ± 1.5, and 0.4 ± 1.3, respectively. The height SDS was less than -2 in 23 children (50%). Patients with enteropathy or intestinal mucosal inflammation (associated with dysmotility or short bowel) were significantly shorter than patients without enteropathy (P = 0.007). The BMD SDS was -1.7 ± 1.6, and the BMAD SDS was -1.4 ± 1.5, independent of primary diagnosis or mucosal inflammation. Nineteen patients (42%) had low BMD (SDS less than -2.0), and 14 patients (31%) had low BMAD. In 25 patients studied at 1-2-y intervals, the BMD SDS fell significantly with time, whereas BMAD declined less, which suggested that a poor bone mineral accretion reflected poor growth. A total of 11 of 37 patients (24%) had nonpathologic fractures (P = 0.3 compared with the general population). CONCLUSIONS Approximately 50% of children were short, and one-third of children had low BMD and BMAD. Children with enteropathy or intestinal mucosal inflammation are at greatest risk of growth failure. Close nutritional monitoring and bespoke PN should maximize the potential for growth and bone mass.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Home parenteral nutrition (HPN) is currently the management of choice for patients with chronic intestinal failure. AIM To summarise the major issues in delivering long-term parenteral nutrition (>3 months) and assess outcome as per complications, mortality and quality of life. To assess the evidence for the therapeutic use of trophic factors such as teduglutide and to review evolving therapeutic options in the treatment of chronic intestinal failure. METHODS A literature search using PubMed and MEDLINE databases was performed. RESULTS Safe delivery of HPN relies upon individualised formulations of parenteral nutrition administered via carefully maintained central venous catheters by trained patients or carers, supported by a skilled multidisciplinary team. Early diagnosis and treatment of complications including catheter-associated blood stream infection (reported incidence 0.14-0.83 episodes/patient-year on HPN) and central venous thrombosis (reported incidence 0.03 episodes/patient-year) is important to minimise mortality and morbidity. There is a significant variation in the reported incidence of both hepatobiliary complications (19-75%) and advanced liver disease (0-50%). Five-year survival rates in large centres are reported between 60% and 78% with survival primarily related to underlying diagnosis. Long-term survival remains higher on HPN than with intestinal transplantation. The role of intestinal lengthening procedures is yet to be validated in adults. CONCLUSIONS Home parenteral nutrition delivered by skilled nutrition teams has low incidences of catheter-related complications. Most deaths relate to the underlying disease. Therapies such as teduglutide and small bowel transplantation appear promising, but home parenteral nutrition appears likely to remain the bedrock of management in the near term.

Abstract
Long-term home parenteral nutrition (PN) is a potential risk for developing osteoporosis. Various attempts have been made to treat bone disease both by modifying the composition of PN and by administering hormones, such as calcitonin, parathyroid hormone, and sexual hormones. Bisphosphonates are recognized as a medication useful for the treatment of several bone disorders associated with excessive reabsorption. Nevertheless, there have been no paediatric studies on bisphosphonates use for intestinal failure-associated bone disease. Our study includes 6 paediatric patients receiving extremely long-term home PN (at least 3 years) who showed radiological and clinical signs of osteoporosis. Diagnosis of bone disease was made after a median period of 127.5 PN months. Treatment consisted in 2 cycles of intravenous pamidronate, 30 mg/m once per month for 6 months consecutively. They all showed a significant improvement in bone mineral density, evaluated after 6 and 12 months of pamidronate treatment. In our sample anthropometrical variables (weight, height, and body mass index) are not related with the z-score trend. Our patients had normal levels of calcium, phosphorus, and vitamin D, and proper nutrient intake. At the last follow-up, dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry scan showed that no patients had a z-score lower than -2.5; moreover, nobody developed bone fractures during the 108-month follow-up. The patients did not have any prominent adverse effect. Finally, in our experience, pamidronate is effective for improving bone mineral density and safe in patients with intestinal failure-associated bone disease.

Abstract
Intestinal failure (IF) is a well identified clinical condition, which is characterised by the reduction of functional gut capacity below the minimum needed for adequate digestion and absorption of nutrients for normal growth in children. Short bowel syndrome (SBS) is the leading cause of IF in neonates, infants and young children usually as a result of extensive intestinal resection during the neonatal period. Simultaneously maintaining optimal nutritional status and achieving intestinal adaptation is a clinical challenge in short bowel patients. Both growth and development of the child as well as gut adaptation should be considered synergistically as primary outcome parameters. Enteral nutrition (EN) can be introduced orally and/or by tube feeding (TF). Several controversies over nutritional treatment of children with SBS related intestinal failure remain. As reported from different centres around the world, most practices are more "experienced based" rather than "evidence based". This is partly due to the small number of patients with this condition. This review (based on a consensus) discusses the physiological principles and nutritional management, including the type of diet and route of delivery. Perspectives in optimizing intestinal adaptation and reducing the consequences of small intestinal bacterial overgrowth are also discussed.
