Lisiecka D, Kearns Á, Bonass A. A qualitative systematic review of family caregivers' experiences of artificial nutrition and hydration at home: A meta-ethnography. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF LANGUAGE & COMMUNICATION DISORDERS 2022; 57:717-736. [PMID: 35439344 PMCID: PMC9543238 DOI: 10.1111/1460-6984.12726] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/19/2021] [Accepted: 03/21/2022] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Artificial nutrition and hydration (AN&H) may be provided to individuals in the home environment, and family caregivers are often involved in the management of this intervention. This experience can have multiple consequences for families. AIMS The aim of this meta-ethnography is to explore and synthesize the personal experiences of family caregivers providing care to a person receiving home AN&H. METHODS & PROCEDURES A comprehensive search of the literature was conducted without any time limitations applied. Seven stages of meta-ethnography were followed. Public and patient involvement was incorporated into the development of the line of argument synthesis in this review. This review is reported following the eMERGe guidelines and it was registered in PROSPERO. MAIN CONTRIBUTION A total of 22 studies were included representing the experiences of 336 family caregivers. Two main themes emerged: (1) sink or swim, being thrown in at the deep end; and (2) professional support as a bedrock. The first theme represents the experiences from the very start of home AN&H when the family caregivers may be overwhelmed with the level of skills they have to acquire. With time, family caregivers perceived the benefits, but also the challenges, associated with managing home AN&H. If a person receiving home AN&H was able to continue with some oral intake, it had a positive impact on family caregivers' experiences. The second theme represents the influence of professional support on the lived experience of family caregivers managing home AN&H. This support should be individualized, comprehensive, and co-created with the family caregiver and the person receiving home AN&H. CONCLUSIONS & IMPLICATIONS This review concluded that caring for a person receiving home AN&H can be very challenging for family caregivers. Family caregivers require personalized support from a multidisciplinary team of healthcare professionals to acquire skills, competence and confidence in this new role. Speech and language therapists are important members of this multidisciplinary team because they can facilitate a continuation of oral intake as appropriate. WHAT THIS PAPER ADDS What is already known on the subject AN&H has an impact not only on the person receiving it but also on the wider family and family caregivers. Healthcare professionals have a role in supporting people living with AN&H. What this paper adds to existing knowledge This review presents a rigorous qualitative evidence synthesis that adheres fully to the eMERGe guidance for reporting of meta-ethnography. Within this meta-ethnography a current caregiver was consulted during the creation of the line of argument synthesis to provide a unique perspective to the review process. This review synthesized the current body of evidence that explores the lived experience of home AN&H (any type) for family caregivers, identifies where professional support is required and highlights current gaps. What are the potential or actual clinical implications of this work? Family caregivers require personalized support from a multidisciplinary team of healthcare professionals to adjust to living with home AN&H. This support assists people living with home AN&H in perceiving benefits and developing more positive experiences. Speech and language therapists are important members of the multidisciplinary team supporting individuals with home AN&H and their family caregivers as they can facilitate a continuation of oral intake as appropriate.

Abstract
The importance of postoperative nutrition support (NS) has been poorly recognized in cardiac surgery. In this population, we aim to describe the delivery of NS, factors affecting calorie/protein delivery and NS-associated morbidity. From January 2015 to January 2017, we prospectively observed all cardiac surgery patients at a single institution who could not take nutrition orally, requiring postoperative NS, either enteral or parenteral, for the duration of NS up to 14 days. We compared outcomes to patients without NS and examined NS indications, factors affecting its delivery and its associated complications. Nine percent of patients (232/2603) required NS for a total of 1938 NS-days. The most common indication was mechanical ventilation. NS met 69% of daily caloric needs. On days when tube feeds (TFs) were held (mean of 13 hours), this decreased to 43%, compared to 96% when TFs were not held (P < 0.001). The most common reason for holding TFs was procedures. When TFs were supplemented with parenteral nutrition (TFs + PN), 86% of daily caloric needs were met. Even on days when TFs were held, this only dropped to 77% (TFs + PN), compared to 36% (TFs-only). By multivariable logistic regression, elemental and semielemental formulas, TF volume, and postpyloric feeds increased the risk of diarrhea, occurring in 28% of patients and 18% of TF-days. In cardiac surgery patients given postoperative NS, mortality and morbidity were an order of magnitude higher than those able to be fed orally. Enteral feeding delivered approximately two-thirds of needs, but PN supplementation dramatically improved this. Diarrhea was common, associated with the postpyloric route, increasing TF volume, and nonintact formula.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative carbohydrate (CHO) supplementation has been recommended in enhanced recovery after surgery protocols. However, the effects of CHO supplementation on gut and systemic immunity are not well understood. METHODS Mice (n = 60) were randomized to 1 of the following 5 groups: control (ad lib feeding), 12-hour fasting without CHO administration (fasting), and 12 hours of fasting with CHO administration at 2, 4, and 8 hours before sacrifice. Then, lymphocytes were isolated from gut-associated lymphoid tissue, that is, Peyer's patches, the intraepithelial space, and the lamina propria of the small intestine. These lymphocyte numbers and phenotypes were evaluated. IgA levels in respiratory and small-intestinal washings were determined by ELISA. Morphology, proliferation, and apoptosis of the intestinal epithelium were also evaluated histologically. RESULTS Although there were no significant differences in IgA levels among the 5 groups, fasting decreased intraepithelial and lamina propria, but not Peyer's patches lymphocyte numbers. CHO at 2 hours prevented lymphocyte loss in intraepithelial, whereas CHO at 4 hours reversed lamina propria lymphocytes numbers. Percentages of lymphocyte phenotypes were similar in each site among the 5 groups. Fasting caused villous atrophy; however, CHO at 2 hours restored villous structure along with maintenance of epithelial cell proliferation rate. CONCLUSIONS Only 12 hours of fasting causes marked gut-associated lymphoid tissue cell loss along with gut atrophy. However, CHO at 2 hours preserves gut immunity and morphology not completely but moderately.

Chronic Critical Illness and Persistent Inflammation: What can we Learn from the Elderly, Injured, Septic, and Malnourished? Shock 2018; 49:4-14.

Abstract
Patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) who develop chronic critical illness significantly stress the clinical capacity and financial resources of healthcare systems. Although vast improvements have been made in critical care management, outcomes for this ICU subset remain poor. A hallmark for patients who progress to chronic critical illness is the development of persistent inflammation and immunosuppression. The risk factors associated with the development of chronic critical illness include increased age, medical comorbidities, severe injury, septic shock, and malnutrition. Interestingly, each of these clinical states bears strikingly similar immune defects, often resulting in the activation of a persistent inflammatory state. Strategies aimed at the prevention or early recognition of this state of immune compromise may help improve outcomes for these individuals and minimize the number who progress to chronic critical illness. This review explores the current knowledge regarding the immune defects associated with the development of persistent inflammation, the ways in which it can manifest clinically, attempted therapeutic interventions to date, and future insights into improving outcomes for this patient population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Critically ill people are at increased risk of malnutrition. Acute and chronic illness, trauma and inflammation induce stress-related catabolism, and drug-induced adverse effects may reduce appetite or increase nausea and vomiting. In addition, patient management in the intensive care unit (ICU) may also interrupt feeding routines. Methods to deliver nutritional requirements include provision of enteral nutrition (EN), or parenteral nutrition (PN), or a combination of both (EN and PN). However, each method is problematic. This review aimed to determine the route of delivery that optimizes uptake of nutrition. OBJECTIVES To compare the effects of enteral versus parenteral methods of nutrition, and the effects of enteral versus a combination of enteral and parenteral methods of nutrition, among critically ill adults, in terms of mortality, number of ICU-free days up to day 28, and adverse events. SEARCH METHODS We searched CENTRAL, MEDLINE, and Embase on 3 October 2017. We searched clinical trials registries and grey literature, and handsearched reference lists of included studies and related reviews. SELECTION CRITERIA We included randomized controlled studies (RCTs) and quasi-randomized studies comparing EN given to adults in the ICU versus PN or versus EN and PN. We included participants that were trauma, emergency, and postsurgical patients in the ICU. DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS Two review authors independently assessed studies for inclusion, extracted data, and assessed risk of bias. We assessed the certainty of evidence with GRADE. MAIN RESULTS We included 25 studies with 8816 participants; 23 studies were RCTs and two were quasi-randomized studies. All included participants were critically ill in the ICU with a wide range of diagnoses; mechanical ventilation status between study participants varied. We identified 11 studies awaiting classification for which we were unable to assess eligibility, and two ongoing studies.Seventeen studies compared EN versus PN, six compared EN versus EN and PN, two were multi-arm studies comparing EN versus PN versus EN and PN. Most studies reported randomization and allocation concealment inadequately. Most studies reported no methods to blind personnel or outcome assessors to nutrition groups; one study used adequate methods to reduce risk of performance bias.Enteral nutrition versus parenteral nutritionWe found that one feeding route rather than the other (EN or PN) may make little or no difference to mortality in hospital (risk ratio (RR) 1.19, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.80 to 1.77; 361 participants; 6 studies; low-certainty evidence), or mortality within 30 days (RR 1.02, 95% CI 0.92 to 1.13; 3148 participants; 11 studies; low-certainty evidence). It is uncertain whether one feeding route rather than the other reduces mortality within 90 days because the certainty of the evidence is very low (RR 1.06, 95% CI 0.95 to 1.17; 2461 participants; 3 studies). One study reported mortality at one to four months and we did not combine this in the analysis; we reported this data as mortality within 180 days and it is uncertain whether EN or PN affects the number of deaths within 180 days because the certainty of the evidence is very low (RR 0.33, 95% CI 0.04 to 2.97; 46 participants).No studies reported number of ICU-free days up to day 28, and one study reported number of ventilator-free days up to day 28 and it is uncertain whether one feeding route rather than the other reduces the number of ventilator-free days up to day 28 because the certainty of the evidence is very low (mean difference, inverse variance, 0.00, 95% CI -0.97 to 0.97; 2388 participants).We combined data for adverse events reported by more than one study. It is uncertain whether EN or PN affects aspiration because the certainty of the evidence is very low (RR 1.53, 95% CI 0.46 to 5.03; 2437 participants; 2 studies), and we found that one feeding route rather than the other may make little or no difference to pneumonia (RR 1.10, 95% CI 0.82 to 1.48; 415 participants; 7 studies; low-certainty evidence). We found that EN may reduce sepsis (RR 0.59, 95% CI 0.37 to 0.95; 361 participants; 7 studies; low-certainty evidence), and it is uncertain whether PN reduces vomiting because the certainty of the evidence is very low (RR 3.42, 95% CI 1.15 to 10.16; 2525 participants; 3 studies).Enteral nutrition versus enteral nutrition and parenteral nutritionWe found that one feeding regimen rather than another (EN or combined EN or PN) may make little or no difference to mortality in hospital (RR 0.99, 95% CI 0.84 to 1.16; 5111 participants; 5 studies; low-certainty evidence), and at 90 days (RR 1.00, 95% CI 0.86 to 1.18; 4760 participants; 2 studies; low-certainty evidence). It is uncertain whether combined EN and PN leads to fewer deaths at 30 days because the certainty of the evidence is very low (RR 1.64, 95% CI 1.06 to 2.54; 409 participants; 3 studies). It is uncertain whether one feeding regimen rather than another reduces mortality within 180 days because the certainty of the evidence is very low (RR 1.00, 95% CI 0.65 to 1.55; 120 participants; 1 study).No studies reported number of ICU-free days or ventilator-free days up to day 28. It is uncertain whether either feeding method reduces pneumonia because the certainty of the evidence is very low (RR 1.40, 95% CI 0.91 to 2.15; 205 participants; 2 studies). No studies reported aspiration, sepsis, or vomiting. AUTHORS' CONCLUSIONS We found insufficient evidence to determine whether EN is better or worse than PN, or than combined EN and PN for mortality in hospital, at 90 days and at 180 days, and on the number of ventilator-free days and adverse events. We found fewer deaths at 30 days when studies gave combined EN and PN, and reduced sepsis for EN rather than PN. We found no studies that reported number of ICU-free days up to day 28. Certainty of the evidence for all outcomes is either low or very low. The 11 studies awaiting classification may alter the conclusions of the review once assessed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Enteral nutrition (EN) is the gold standard of nutritional therapy for critically ill or severely injured patients, because EN promotes gut and hepatic immunity, thereby preventing infectious complications as compared with parenteral nutrition. However, there are many EN formulas with different protein and fat contents. Their effects on gut-associated lymphoid tissue remain unclear. Recently, semielemental diets (SEDs) containing whey peptides as a nitrogen source have been found to be beneficial in patients with malabsorption or pancreatitis. Herein, we examined the influences of various dietary formulations on gut immunity to clarify the advantages of SEDs over elemental diets. METHODS Forty-four male Institute of Cancer Research mice were randomized to four groups: chow (CH: n = 5), intragastric total parenteral nutrition (IG-TPN: n = 13), elemental diet (ED: n = 13), and SED (n = 13). The CH group received CH diet ad libitum, whereas the IG-TPN, ED (Elental, Ajinomoto, Japan), and SED (Peptino, Terumo, Japan) groups were given their respective diets for 5 day via gastrostomy. After 5 days, the mice were killed to obtain whole small intestines. Peyer's patch (PP) lymphocytes were harvested and counted. Their subpopulations were evaluated by flow cytometry. Immunoglobulin A (IgA) levels in intestinal and respiratory tract washings were measured with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Villous height (VH) and crypt depth in the distal intestine were measured by light microscopy. RESULTS SED increased the PP cell number and intestinal or respiratory IgA levels to those of CH mice, while ED partially restored these parameters. The IG-TPN group showed the lowest PP cell number and IgA levels among the four groups. VH was significantly greater in the CH than in the other groups. VH in the ED and SED groups also exceeded in the IG-TPN group, while being similar in these two groups. No significant crypt depth differences were observed among the four groups. CONCLUSIONS SED administration can be recommended for patients unable tolerate complex enteral diets or a normal diet in terms of not only absorption and tolerability but also maintenance of gut immunity.

Abstract
Parenteral nutrition (PN) is a lifesaving therapy that provides intravenous nutrition support to patients who cannot, or should not, feed via the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Unfortunately, PN also carries certain risks related to infection and metabolic complications compared with enteral nutrition. In this review, an overview of PN and GI immune and microbiome changes is provided. PN impacts the gut-associated lymphoid tissue functions, especially adaptive immune cells, changes the intestinal epithelium and chemical secretions, and significantly alters the intestinal microbiome. Collectively, these changes functionally result in increased susceptibility to infectious and injurious challenge. Since PN remains necessary in large numbers of patients, the search to improve outcomes by stimulating GI immune function during PN remains of interest. This review closes by describing recent advances in using enteric nervous system neuropeptides or microbially derived products during PN, which may improve GI parameters by maintaining immunity and physiology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Secretory immunoglobulin A (SIgA) prevents adherence of pathogens at mucosal surfaces to prevent invasive infection. Polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR) is located on the basolateral surface of epithelial cells and binds dimeric immunoglobulin A (IgA) produced by plasma cells in the lamina propria. This IgA-pIgR complex is transported apically, where IgA is exocytosed as SIgA to the mucosal surface. Our prior work shows that mice fed intragastric (IG, an elemental diet model) and IV parenteral nutrition (PN) solution have reduced intestinal T and B cells, SIgA, and interleukin-4 (IL-4) compared with mice fed chow or a complex enteral diet (CED). Prior work also demonstrates a reduction in IgA transport to mucosal surfaces in IV PN-fed mice. Because IL-4 up-regulates pIgR production, this work studies the effects of these diets on intestinal pIgR. METHODS Male Institute of Cancer Research (ICR) mice were randomized to chow (n = 11) with IV catheter, CED (n = 10) or IG PN (n = 11) via gastrostomy and IV PN (n = 12) for 5 days. CED and PN were isocaloric and isonitrogenous. Small intestine was harvested for pIgR and IL-4 assays after mucosal washing for IgA. IgA and IL-4 levels were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and pIgR by Western blot. RESULTS Small intestinal pIgR expression, IgA levels, and IL-4 levels decreased significantly in IV PN and IG PN groups. CONCLUSIONS Lack of enteral stimulation affects multiple mechanisms responsible for decreased intestinal SIgA levels, including reduced T and B cells in the lamina propria, reduced Th-2 IgA-stimulating cytokines, and impaired expression of the IgA transport protein, pIgR.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To define gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) phenotype changes with parenteral nutrition (PN) and PN with bombesin (BBS). BACKGROUND PN reduces respiratory tract (RT) and GALT Peyer patch and lamina propria lymphocytes, lowers gut and RT immunoglobulin A (IgA) levels, and destroys established RT antiviral and antibacterial immunity. BBS, an enteric nervous system neuropeptide, reverses PN-induced IgA and RT immune defects. METHODS Experiment 1: Intravenously cannulated ICR mice received chow, PN, or PN + BBS injections for 5 days. LSR-II flow cytometer analyzed Peyer patches and lamina propria isolated lymphocytes for homing phenotypes (L-selectin and LPAM-1) and state of activation (CD25, CD44) in T (CD3)-cell subsets (CD4 and CD8) along with homing phenotype (L-selectin and LPAM-1) in naive B (IgD) and antigen-activated (IgD or IgM) B (CD45R/B220) cells. Experiment 2: Following the initial experiment 1 protocol, lamina propria T regulatory cell phenotype was evaluated by Foxp3 expression. RESULTS Experiment 1: PN significantly reduced lamina propria (1) CD4CD25 (activated) and (2) CD4CD25LPAM-1 (activated cells homed to the lamina propria) T cells, whereas PN-BBS assimilated chow levels. PN significantly reduced lamina propria (1) IgD (naive), (2) IgDLPAM (antigen-activated homed to the lamina propria) and CD44 memory B cells, whereas PN-BBS assimilated chow levels. Experiment 2: PN significantly reduced lamina propria CD4CD25Foxp3 T regulatory cells compared with chow-fed mice, whereas PN + BBS assimilated chow levels. CONCLUSIONS PN reduces lamina propria activated and T regulatory cells and also naive and memory B cells. BBS addition to PN maintains these cell phenotypes, demonstrating the intimate involvement of the enteric nervous system in mucosal immunity.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Parenteral nutrition (PN) increases the risk of infection in critically ill patients and is associated with defects in gastrointestinal innate immunity. Goblet cells produce mucosal defense compounds, including mucin (principally MUC2), trefoil factor 3 (TFF3), and resistin-like molecule β (RELMβ). Bombesin (BBS), a gastrin-releasing peptide analogue, experimentally reverses PN-induced defects in Paneth cell innate immunity. We hypothesized that PN reduces goblet cell product expression and PN+BBS would reverse these PN-induced defects. METHODS Two days after intravenous cannulation, male Institute of Cancer Research mice were randomized to chow (n = 15), PN (n = 13), or PN+BBS (15 µg tid) (n = 12) diets for 5 days. Defined segments of ileum and luminal fluid were analyzed for MUC2, TFF3, and RELMβ by quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction and Western blot. Th2 cytokines interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-13 were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS Compared with chow, PN significantly reduced MUC2 in ileum (P < .01) and luminal fluid (P = .01). BBS supplementation did not improve ileal or luminal MUC2 compared with PN (P > .3). Compared with chow, PN significantly reduced TFF3 in ileum (P < .02) and luminal fluid (P < .01). BBS addition did not improve ileal or luminal TFF3 compared with PN (P > .3). Compared with chow, PN significantly reduced ileal RELMβ (P < .01). BBS supplementation significantly increased ileal RELMβ to levels similar to chow (P < .03 vs PN; P > .6 vs chow). Th2 cytokines were decreased with PN and returned to chow levels with BBS. CONCLUSION PN significantly impairs the goblet cell component of innate mucosal immunity. BBS only preserves goblet cell RELMβ during PN but not other goblet cell products measured.

Abstract
Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is considered the gold standard treatment for periampullory carcinomas. This procedure presents 30%–40% of morbidity. Patients who have undergone pancreaticoduodenectomy often present perioperative malnutrition that is worse in the early postoperative days, affects the process of healing, the intestinal barrier function and the number of postoperative complications. Few studies focus on the relation between enteral nutrition (EN) and postoperative complications. Our aim was to perform a review, including only randomized controlled trial meta-analyses or well-designed studies, of evidence regarding the correlation between EN and main complications and outcomes after pancreaticoduodenectomy, as delayed gastric emptying (DGE), postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF), postpancreatectomy hemorrhage (PPH), length of stay and infectious complications. Several studies, especially randomized controlled trial have shown that EN does not increase the rate of DGE. EN appeared safe and tolerated for patients after PD, even if it did not reveal any advantages in terms of POPF, PPH, length of stay and infectious complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lack of enteral stimulation during parenteral nutrition (PN) impairs mucosal immunity. Bombesin (BBS), a gastrin-releasing peptide analogue, reverses PN-induced defects in acquired immunity. Paneth cells produce antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) of innate immunity for release after cholinergic stimulation. OBJECTIVE Determine if BBS restores AMPs and bactericidal function during PN. METHODS Intravenously cannulated male ICR mice were randomized to Chow, PN, or PN+BBS (15 μg 3 times daily, n = 7 per group) for 5 days. Ileum was analyzed for AMPs (Protein: sPLA2 by fluorescence, lysozyme and RegIII-γ by western andcryptdin-4 by ELISA; mRNA: all by RT-PCR). Cholinergic stimulated (100 μM bethanechol) ileal specimens assessed Pseudomonas bactericidal activity. Ileum (Chow: n = 7; PN: n = 9; PN+BBS: n = 8) was assessed for Escherichia coli invasion in ex-vivo culture. RESULTS PN significantly decreased most AMPs versus Chow while BBS maintained Chow levels (sPLA2: Chow: 107 + 14*, PN: 44.6 + 7.2, PN+BBS: 78.7 + 13.4* Fl/min/μL/total protein; Lysozyme: Chow: 63.9 + 11.9*, PN: 26.8 + 6.2; PN+BBS: 64.9 + 13.8* lysozyme/total protein; RegIII-γ: Chow: 51.5 + 10.0*, PN: 20.4 + 4.3, PN+BBS: 31.0 + 8.4 RegIII-γ/total protein; Cryptdin-4: Chow: 18.4 + 1.5*, PN: 12.7 + 1.6, PN+BBS: 26.1 + 2.4*† pg/mg [all *P < 0.05 vs PN and †P < 0.05 vs Chow]). Functionally, BBS prevented PN loss of bactericidal activity after cholinergic stimulation (Chow: 25.3 + 3.6*, PN: 13.0 + 3.2; PN+BBS: 27.0 + 4.7* percent bacterial killing, *P < 0.05 vs PN). BBS reduced bacterial invasion in unstimulated tissue barely missing significance (P = 0.06). CONCLUSIONS The enteric nervous system (ENS) controls AMP levels in Paneth cells during PN but mucosal protection by innate immunity requires both ENS and parasympathetic stimulation.

Abstract
Intestinal failure (IF), due to short bowel syndrome (SBS), results from surgical resection of a major portion of the intestine, leading to reduced nutrient absorption and need for parenteral nutrition (PN). The incidence is highest in infants and relates to preterm birth, necrotizing enterocolitis, atresia, gastroschisis, volvulus, and aganglionosis. Patient outcomes have improved, but there is a need to develop new therapies for SBS and to understand intestinal adaptation after different diseases, resection types, and nutritional and pharmacological interventions. Animal studies are needed to carefully evaluate the cellular mechanisms, safety, and translational relevance of new procedures. Distal intestinal resection, without a functioning colon, results in the most severe complications and adaptation may depend on the age at resection (preterm, term, young, adult). Clinically relevant therapies have recently been suggested from studies in preterm and term PN-dependent SBS piglets, with or without a functional colon. Studies in rats and mice have specifically addressed the fundamental physiological processes underlying adaptation at the cellular level, such as regulation of mucosal proliferation, apoptosis, transport, and digestive enzyme expression, and easily allow exogenous or genetic manipulation of growth factors and their receptors (e.g., glucagon-like peptide 2, growth hormone, insulin-like growth factor 1, epidermal growth factor, keratinocyte growth factor). The greater size of rats, and especially young pigs, is an advantage for testing surgical procedures and nutritional interventions (e.g., PN, milk diets, long-/short-chain lipids, pre- and probiotics). Conversely, newborn pigs (preterm or term) and weanling rats provide better insights into the developmental aspects of treatment for SBS in infants owing to their immature intestines. The review shows that a balance among practical, economical, experimental, and ethical constraints will determine the choice of SBS model for each clinical or basic research question.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Outbred mice exhibit increased airway and intestinal immunoglobulin A (IgA) following injury when fed normal chow, consistent with humans. Parenteral nutrition (PN) eliminates IgA increases at both sites. Inbred mice are needed for detailed immunological studies; however, specific strains have not been evaluated for this purpose. BALB/c and C57BL/6 are common inbred mouse strains but demonstrate divergent immune responses to analogous stress. This study addressed which inbred mouse strain best replicates the outbred mouse and human immune response to injury. METHODS Intravenously cannulated mice received chow or PN for 5 days and then underwent sacrifice at 0 or 8 hours following controlled surgical injury (BALB/c: n = 16-21/group; C57BL/6: n = 12-15/group). Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) was analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for IgA, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-1β, and IL-6, while small intestinal wash fluid (SIWF) was analyzed for IgA. RESULTS No significant increase in BAL IgA occurred following injury in chow- or PN-fed BALB/c mice (chow: P = .1; PN: P = .7) despite significant increases in BAL TNF-α and SIWF IgA (chow: 264 ± 28 vs 548 ± 37, P < .0001; PN: 150 ± 12 vs 301 ± 17, P < .0001). Injury significantly increased mucosal IgA in chow-fed C57BL/6 mice (BAL: 149 ± 33 vs 342 ± 87, P = .01; SIWF: 236 ± 28 vs 335 ± 32, P = .006) and BAL cytokines. After injury, PN-fed C57BL/6 mice exhibited no difference in BAL IgA (P = .9), BAL cytokines, or SIWF IgA (P = .1). CONCLUSIONS C57BL/6 mice exhibit similar airway responses to injury as outbred mice and humans, providing an appropriate model for studying mucosal responses to injury. The BALB/c mucosal immune system responds differently to injury and does not replicate the human injury response.

Abstract
Pneumonia is one of the most important diseases in terms of mortality in the elderly. In particular, bedridden patients who are forbidden oral ingestion during enteral nutrition may have a poor outcome resulting from a respiratory infection. Oral hygiene can play a positive role in preventing aspiration pneumonia in the elderly. The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of oral hygiene for bedridden and tube-fed patients at an increased risk of pneumonia. This retrospective study was conducted from July 2011 to June 2013 on a long-term-care hospital unit. The oral care protocol (OCP) intervention commenced in July 2012, during the study period. The subjects of this study were 63 elderly patients with a mean age of 81.7 years. Thirty-one patients were enrolled in the OCP intervention group, and the mean observation length was 130.4 days; the mean observation length for the 32 patients in the control group was 128.4 days. The incidence of pneumonia and the numbers of days with a recorded fever, antibiotics administration, blood tests, and radiological examinations were reduced from 1.20 to 0.45, 24.57 to 17.48, 25.52 to 10.12, 10.91 to 6.54, and 6.33 to 3.09 %, respectively. These reductions were significantly less in the OCP intervention group. In conclusion, the results of the present study suggest that daily oral care for tube-fed patients who do not receive nutrition by mouth reduced the incidence of pneumonia. In addition to patients consuming food by mouth, all tube-fed patients require dedicated oral care to maintain healthy oral conditions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine preoperative dietary influences on gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) cell number in the context of postoperative infectious complications. BACKGROUND There is little clinical evidence regarding whether nutritional routes affect GALT size and/or phenotype. The influence of GALT atrophy on clinical outcomes is also unclear. METHOD Patients with complete obstruction of the colon due to a tumor were excluded from this study. Study 1. Resected terminal ileum specimens, from 62 patients [preoperative parenteral nutrition (PN): n = 15, preoperative oral feeding (OF): n = 47] who underwent right colectomy during the period from 1997 to 2004 at our department, were immunohistochemically stained for counting numbers of T, IgA-producing, and mature and immature dendritic cells (DCs) in the lamina propria (LP) and intraepithelial space.Study 2. We reviewed 341 patients (PN: n = 99, OF: n = 242) with colon cancer who underwent colectomy during this period for postoperative complications. RESULTS Study 1. T cell numbers in the LP and intraepithelial space and IgA-producing cell number in the LP were significantly lower in the PN than in the OF group. Mature DC number in the LP was significantly lower in the PN than in the OF group, whereas total DC numbers (both mature and immature DC) were similar in the 2 groups.Study 2. The PN group had significantly higher rates of total infectious complications, surgical site infection, pneumonia, infectious colitis, and central venous catheter infection. CONCLUSIONS Lack of enteral delivery of nutrients reduces numbers of T and IgA-producing cells, as well as mature DCs, in GALT of colon cancer patients, as it does in animal models. A close association between GALT changes and infectious complication morbidity was confirmed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The parotid and submandibular salivary glands are gut-associated lymphoid tissues (GALTs) that secrete immune compounds into the oral cavity. Parenteral nutrition (PN) without enteral stimulation decreases GALT function, including intestinal lymphocyte counts and secretory immunoglobulin A (sIgA) levels. Since the neuropeptide bombesin (BBS), a gastrin-releasing peptide analogue, stimulates intestinal function and restores GALT parameters, we hypothesized that PN + BBS would stimulate parotid and salivary gland IgA levels, T lymphocytes, and IgA plasma cell counts compared with PN alone. METHODS Male (Institute of Cancer Research) ICR mice received intravenous catheters and were randomized to chow with saline, PN, or PN + BBS (15 µg/tid/mouse) for 5 days (8/group), 2 days after cannulation. Salivary glands were weighed and either frozen for IgA and amylase analysis or fixed for histological analysis of acinar cells, IgA+ plasma cells, and T lymphocytes. Small intestinal wash fluid was collected for IgA regression analysis with salivary glands. RESULTS PN reduced organ weight, acinar cell size, and amylase activity compared with chow; BBS had no significant effects on these parameters. Compared with chow, PN significantly reduced salivary gland IgA levels, IgA+ plasma cells, and T lymphocytes. PN + BBS significantly elevated IgA and restored cellularity compared with PN. Salivary gland tissue homogenate IgA levels significantly correlated with intestinal fluid IgA levels. CONCLUSIONS Compared with chow, PN results in atrophy of the salivary glands characterized by reduced amylase, IgA, and immune cellularity. BBS has no effect on acinar cells or amylase activity compared with PN but maintains tissue IgA and plasma cells and T-lymphocyte numbers compared with chow.

Abstract
The human intestine contains huge amounts of nonpathologic bacteria surviving in an environment that is beneficial to both the host and the bacterial populations. When short pauses in oral intake occur with minimal alterations in the mucosa-microbial interface, critical illness, with its attendant acidosis, prolonged gastrointestinal tract starvation, exogenous antibiotics, and breakdown in mucosal defenses, renders the host vulnerable to bacterial challenge and also threatens the survival of the bacteria. This review examines the altered innate and adaptive immunologic host defenses that occur as a result of altered oral or enteral intake and/or injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Early enteral nutrition (EN) in patients receiving mechanical ventilation commonly has been advocated, based mainly on studies conducted in mixed populations of trauma and surgery patients. In this study, ventilator-associated pneumonia rates and outcomes were compared in mechanically ventilated medical intensive care unit (ICU) patients receiving enteral versus parenteral nutrition. METHODS Patients fulfilling inclusion criteria between February 1, 2004, and January 31, 2006, were included. Patients were randomized to enteral or parenteral nutrition (PN) within 48 hours of intubation. Development of ventilator-associated pneumonia, assessment as to whether day feeding goal was attained, duration of mechanical ventilation, ICU and hospital length of stay (LOS), and mortality rates were recorded. RESULTS Of 249 consecutive patients receiving mechanical ventilation, 71 patients were included. Thirty (42.3%) patients received EN, and 41 (57.7%) received PN. There was no difference between groups for age, sex, body mass index, and scores on the Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II. Ventilator-associated pneumonia rate, ICU and hospital LOS, and mortality rates were similar for both groups. In the parenterally fed group, duration of mechanical ventilation was longer (p = .023), but the feeding goal was attained earlier (p = .012). CONCLUSIONS In mechanically ventilated patients in the medical ICU, ventilator-associated pneumonia rates, ICU and hospital lengths of stay, and ICU and hospital mortality rates of patients receiving PN are not significantly different than those in patients receiving EN, and feeding goals can more effectively be attained by PN. Yet, duration of mechanical ventilation is slightly longer in patients receiving PN.

BACKGROUND Parenteral nutrition (PN) causes intestinal mucosal atrophy, gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) atrophy and dysfunction, leading to impaired mucosal immunity and increased susceptibility to infectious complications. Therefore, new PN formulations are needed to maintain mucosal immunity. Short-chain fatty acids have been demonstrated to exert beneficial effects on the intestinal mucosa. We examined the effects of adding butyric acid to PN on GALT lymphocyte numbers, phenotypes, mucosal immunoglobulin A (IgA) levels, and intestinal morphology in mice. METHODS Male Institute of Cancer Research mice (n = 103) were randomized to receive either standard PN (S-PN), butyric acid-supplemented PN (Bu-PN), or ad libitum chow (control) groups. The mice were fed these respective diets for 5 days. In experiment 1, cells were isolated from Peyer's patches (PPs) to determine lymphocyte numbers and phenotypes (αβTCR(+), γδTCR(+), CD4(+), CD8(+), B220(+) cells). IgA levels in small intestinal washings were also measured. In experiment 2, IgA levels in respiratory tract (bronchoalveolar and nasal) washings were measured. In experiment 3, small intestinal morphology was evaluated. RESULTS Lymphocyte yields from PPs and small intestinal, bronchoalveolar, and nasal washing IgA levels were all significantly lower in the S-PN group than in the control group. Bu-PN moderately, but significantly, restored PP lymphocyte numbers, as well as intestinal and bronchoalveolar IgA levels, as compared with S-PN. Villous height and crypt depth in the small intestine were significantly decreased in the S-PN group vs the control group, however Bu-PN restored intestinal morphology. CONCLUSIONS A new PN formula containing butyric acid is feasible and would ameliorate PN-induced impairment of mucosal immunity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Secretory immunoglobulin A (sIgA) increases in the airways of humans and mice after injury to protect against infection. The pro-inflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, and IL-6 are linked molecularly to sIgA production and secretion and are required for sIgA increases in the airway after injury in a mouse model. We investigated the injury effect on airway and serum concentrations to determine the source of the cytokines involved in the airway IgA response. METHODS In the first experiment, TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 concentrations in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid and serum obtained from 11 ventilated trauma patients within 30 h of admission were compared with those in eight elective surgical patients. In the second experiment, male ICR mice received no injury (n = 7) or injury with sham celiotomy and neck incisions (n = 8) with sacrifice of all animals at 8 h for BAL fluid and serum cytokine measurements by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS Injured patients had significantly higher BAL fluid and serum TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 concentrations, with greater increases in the BAL fluid than in the serum. Injured mice had significantly increased BAL fluid concentrations of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 without significant changes in serum TNF-α or IL-1β. Serum IL-6 increased significantly. CONCLUSIONS Injury significantly increases human and mouse airway TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6. Increases are greater in the airway than in serum, implying a local rather than a systemic stress response to injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Both humans and mice increase airway immunoglobulin A (IgA) after injury. This protective response is associated with TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 airway increases and in mice is dependent upon these cytokines as well as enteral feeding. Parenteral nutrition (PN) with decreased enteral stimulation (DES) alters gut barrier function, decreases intestinal IgA, and decreases the principal IgA transport protein pIgR. We investigated the small intestine (SI) IgA response to injury and the role of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and PN/DES. METHODS Expt 1: Murine kinetics of SI washing fluid (SIWF) IgA; SI, SIWF and serum TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6, was determined by ELISA from 0 to 8 hours after a limited surgical stress injury (laparotomy and neck incisions). Expt 2: Mice received chow or PN/DES before injury and SIWF IgA and SI pIgR levels were determined at 0 and 8 hours. Expt 3: Mice received PBS, TNF-α antibody, or IL-1β antibody 30 minutes before injury to measure effects on the SIWF IgA response. Expt 4: Mice received injury or exogenous TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 to measure effects on the SIWF IgA response. RESULTS Expt 1: SIWF IgA levels increased significantly by 2 hours after injury without associated increases in TNF-α or IL-1β whereas IL-6 was only increased at 1 hour after injury. Expt 2: PN/DES significantly reduced baseline SIWF IgA and SI pIgR and eliminated their increase after injury seen in Chow mice. Expt 3: TNF-α and IL-1β blockade did not affect the SIWF IgA increase after injury. Expt 4: Exogenous TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 increased SIWF IgA similarly to injury. CONCLUSION The SI mucosal immune responds to injury or exogenous TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 with an increase in lumen IgA, although it does not rely on local SI increases in TNF-α or IL-1β as it does in the lung. Similar to the lung, the IgA response is eliminated with PN/DES.

Abstract
BACKGROUND : Injury stimulates an innate airway IgA response in severely injured patients, which also occurs in mice. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and interleukin (IL)-1β stimulate the production of polymeric immunoglobulin receptor, the protein required to transport immunoglobulin A (IgA) to mucosal surfaces. Blockade of TNF-α and IL-1β eliminates the airway IgA response to injury. IL-6 stimulates differentiation of B cells into IgA-secreting plasma cells at mucosal sites. We investigated the local and systemic kinetics of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 after injury in mice. We also hypothesized that injection of exogenous TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 would replicate the airway IgA response to injury. METHODS : Experiment 1: male Institute of Cancer Research mice were randomized to uninjured controls (n = 8) or to surgical stress with laparotomy and neck incisions, with killing at 1, 2, 3, 5, or 8 hours after injury (n = 8/group). Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) and serum levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Experiment 2: male Institute of Cancer Research mice were randomized to uninjured controls (n = 6), injury (surgical stress that was similar to experiment 1 except the peritoneum was left intact, n = 6), or cytokine injection with intraperitoneal injection of recombinant TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6. Animals were killed at 2 hours after injury, and nasal airway lavage and BAL IgA were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS : Experiment 1: BAL TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 levels increased in bimodal pattern after injury at 3 hours and 8 hours versus controls (p < 0.05). Serum IL-6 did not increase at 3 hours, but did show a significant increase by 5 hours versus control (p < 0.05). Serum levels of TNF-α and IL-1β did not change. Experiment 2: both Injury and combination TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 cytokine injection significantly increased IgA levels in airway lavage (BAL + nasal airway lavage) compared with control (p < 0.01 for both). CONCLUSIONS : Airway levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 increase in a bimodal pattern after injury with peaks at 3 hours and 8 hours, which do not correspond to serum changes. The peak at 8 hours is consistent with the known increase in airway IgA after injury. Intraperitoneal injection of a combination exogenous TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 replicates the airway IgA increase after injury. This effect is not seen with individual cytokine injections.

Abstract
Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) leads to a decline in phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/phospho-Akt (p-Akt) activity, affecting downstream signaling, reducing epithelial cell (EC) proliferation, and contributing to intestinal mucosal atrophy. We hypothesized that promoting Akt activity would prevent these changes. We used a novel Akt-activating peptide, TCL1 (a head-to-tail dimer of the Akt-binding domain of T-cell lymphoma-1), or an inactive mutant sequence TCL1G conjugated to a transactivator of transcription peptide sequence to promote intracellular uptake. Four groups of mice were studied, enteral nutrition group (control), control mice given a functioning TCL1 (control + TCL1), TPN mice given TCL1G (control peptide, TPN + TCL1G); and TPN mice given TCL1. TPN mice given TCL1G showed a significant decrease in jejunal EC p-Akt (Ser473 and Thr308) abundance, whereas TPN + TCL1 mice showed increased p-Akt (Ser473) abundance. Phosphorylation of beta-catenin and glycogen synthase kinase-3beta (downstream targets of Akt signaling) were also decreased in the TPN + TCL1G group and completely prevented in the TPN + TCL1 group. Use of TCL1 nearly completely prevented the decline in EC proliferation seen in the TPN + TCL1G group, as well as partly returned EC apoptosis levels close to controls. The mammalian target of rapamycin pathway demonstrated a similar reduction in activity in the TPN + TCL1G group that was significantly prevented in the TPN + TCL1 group. These results support a significant loss of PI3K/p-Akt signaling upon replacing enteral nutrition with TPN, and prevention of this loss demonstrates the key importance of PI3K/p-Akt signaling in maintaining gut integrity including EC proliferation and reduction in apoptosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Secretory immunoglobulin A (sIgA) and immunoglobulin G (IgG) are the principal immunoglobulins in the respiratory tract. Under normal circumstances, the upper respiratory tract contains predominantly sIgA, whereas IgG is of primary importance in the lower tract. Unlike other antibody isotypes, IgA antibodies participate in host defense functions without inciting inflammatory processes that might cause collateral damage to tissues. However, the ability of sIgA to modulate inflammatory reactions induced by other humoral factors is unclear. We examined the effect of the sequence of exposure to the two immunoglobulin isotypes on bacteria- or lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-mediated cytokine production by monocyte-polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) cells in vitro. METHODS Blood monocytes were co-cultured with Escherichia coli or LPS. Either sIgA or IgG was added to subsets of cultures, which were incubated for 1 h at 37 degrees C. Culture supernatant liquids were then co-cultured with naïve PMNs for 1 h at 37 degrees C. Either IgG was added during this co-culture step or sIgA was added if IgG was added first. Cytokines were quantitated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS Significant increases in interleukin (IL)-6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, and IL-8 were noted after E. coli or LPS co-culture with monocytes and subsequent PMN challenge. Marked decreases in these pro-inflammatory cytokines were seen after the addition of sIgA or sIgA-IgG but not after IgG alone. This effect was more apparent with the immunoglobulin sequence IgA followed by IgG. CONCLUSION The sequence of immunoglobulin isotype involvement in infectious processes is important in modulating the cytokine response to bacteria and LPS by inflammatory cells. Our in vitro results support the critical role of sIgA in the proximal airways in mitigating inflammatory responses by other humoral defenses in the distal airways. Loss of effective sIgA function may contribute to increased morbidity and deaths from nosocomial pneumonia in compromised patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effect of parenteral nutrition (PN) on lymphocyte mass in the lung is unknown, but reduced mucosal lymphocytes are hypothesized to play a role in the reduced immunoglobulin A-mediated immunity in both gut and lung. The ability to transfer and track cells between mice may allow study of diet-induced mucosal immune function. The objectives of this study are to characterize lung T-cell populations following parenteral feeding and to study distribution patterns of transferred donor lung T cells in recipient mice. METHODS In experiment 1, cannulated male Balb/c mice are randomized to receive chow or PN for 5 days. Lung lymphocytes are obtained via collagenase digestion, and flow cytometric analysis is used to identify total T (CD3+) and B (CD45/B220+) cells. In experiment 2, isolated lung T cells from chow-fed male Balb/c mice are pooled and labeled in vitro with a fluorescent dye (carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester [CFSE]), and 1.1 x 10(8) CFSE+ cells (3.1 x 10(6) T cells) are transferred to chow-fed Balb/c recipients. Cells recovered from recipient lungs and intestinal lamina propria (LP) are analyzed by flow cytometry to determine CFSE/CD3+ T cells at 1, 2, and 7 days. In experiment 3, cells are transferred to PN-fed recipients. RESULTS In experiment 1, PN significantly decreases lung T- and B-cell populations compared with chow feeding. In experiment 2, CFSE+ T-cell retention is highest on day 1 in lung and LP, and decreases on day 2. Cells are gone by day 7; 98.1% of retained donor lung T cells migrate to recipient lungs and 1.9% to the intestine on day 1. Similar results are seen in experiment 3 after transfer of cells to PN-fed recipients. CONCLUSIONS PN reduces pulmonary lymphocyte populations consistent with impaired respiratory immunity. Transferred lung T cells preferentially localize to recipient lungs rather than intestine with maximal accumulation at 24 hours. Limited cross-talk of transferred lung T cells to the intestine indicates that mucosal lymphocyte traffic might be programmed to localize to specific effector sites.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Secretory immunoglobulin A (SIgA), the principle immune defense at respiratory and other mucosal sites in the body, is highly dependant on its molecular structure for effective antibody function. Previous studies have demonstrated that gram-negative but not gram-positive isolates from patients with nosocomial pneumonia have IgA protease activity that contributes to the development of infection. We postulate that SIgA cleavage by bacteria would also affect anti-inflammatory properties of IgA and studied this in vitro. METHODS Sterile filtrates obtained from Pseudomonas, Acinetobacter, and methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) held in culture with SIgA were used to challenge polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) obtained from healthy volunteers. In a second group of experiments, blood monocytes were incubated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or LPS + IgA, and the resulting culture supernatants was used to stimulate PMNs in vitro. RESULTS LPS-stimulated monocytes increased CD11b expression, O2-generation and elastase release by PMNs. Secretory IgA but not IgG abrogated this response. Cleavage of SIgA by the gram-negative respiratory isolates, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumanii also led to the loss of cellular effector function noted with intact SIgA. Additionally, PMN cytotoxic potential was similar to that noted with PMNs treated with supernatant from LPS-stimulated monocytes. CONCLUSION IgA cleavage by gram-negative respiratory isolates may lead to the development of pneumonia and the subsequent severity of the infection as a result of uncontrolled inflammatory responses by the host.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Parenteral nutrition (PN) increases post-trauma pneumonia versus enteral feeding. PN impairs murine immunoglobulin A (IgA) airway defenses and abrogates a normal IgA increase following injury. This work investigates the effect of type/route of nutrition on lung IgA and its transport protein, polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR), after injury. METHODS Catheterized mice were randomized to Chow or PN for 5 days and sacrificed without injury (Chow: n = 12; PN n = 11), or 8 hours after laparotomy + neck incisions (Chow-injury: n = 11, PN-injury: n = 13). Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) and lung IgA levels were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and lung pIgR by Western blot. RESULTS BAL IgA levels increased in Chow-injury versus PN-injury (P <.01) with no differences in pIgR. PN-injury tissue IgA levels decreased versus Chow (P <.01), Chow-injury (P <.01), and PN (P <.05). CONCLUSIONS PN impairs the airway IgA response to injury but not due to impaired IgA transport capacity/pIgR level.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) increases the risk of severe infectious complications such as septic shock, which are believed to be the result of a breakdown of intestinal barrier function and subsequent bacterial translocation. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) comprise a family of membrane proteins that serve as pattern recognition receptors for a variety of microbe-derived molecules and stimulate innate immune responses to microbes. Alteration of intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) to TPN administration has been studied extensively. However, few studies have examined the effect of TPN administration on intestinal TLRs. We hypothesized that the expressions of intestinal TLRs and cytokines may change with TPN administration and a lack of enteral feeding. MATERIALS AND METHODS TPN-treated mice and sham operation mice (control) were killed at 10 days after operation. mRNA expression of intestinal cytokines and TLRs were analyzed with reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) methods. Change in IEL populations was analyzed with flow cytometry. RESULTS RT-PCR showed varying expression levels of TLRs at different sites on the small intestine and colon. TLR4, TLR5, TLR7, and TLR9 mRNAs were up-regulated in response to TPN administration, particularly in the distal small intestine. CONCLUSIONS Up-regulation of TLRs in intestine in response to TPN administration and a lack of enteral nutrition may be associated with an increased risk of septic shock due to bacterial translocation caused by Interferon gamma-mediated intestinal epithelial cell apoptosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Parenteral nutrition (PN) increases the incidence of pneumonia in severely injured patients compared with enteral feeding (ENT). Injury induces an innate airway IgA response in severely injured patients; similar responses occur in mice. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin-1 beta (IL-1beta) stimulate the production of polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR), the protein required to transport immunoglobulin A (IgA) to mucosal surfaces. We have shown that PN alters levels of lung and nasal passage IgA and several IgA-stimulating cytokines. We hypothesized that TNF-alpha and IL-1beta blockade, as well as PN, would blunt the airway IgA response to injury. METHODS Male Institute of Cancer Research (ICR) mice were randomized to uninjured controls (n = 10) or to intra-peritoneal phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) (n = 9), antagonistic TNF-alpha antibody (100 mcg, n = 7), or antagonistic IL-1beta antibody (50 mcg, n = 8) 30 min prior to surgical stress with laparotomy and neck incisions. Mice were sacrificed at 8 h for nasal and bronchoalveolar lavage (NAL, BAL) to measure IgA by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. In a separate experiment, 12 mice underwent intravenous cannulation followed by chow (n = 5) or PN (n = 7) feeding for 5 days prior to the same stress and IgA measurement. RESULTS Injury significantly increased NAL and BAL IgA (225 +/- 104 ng) compared with baseline (145 +/- 38 ng; p = 0.01). Blockade of TNF-alpha eliminated the innate airway IgA response to injury (130 +/- 47 ng; p = 0.01), whereas IL-1beta blockade blunted and PN eliminated it completely. CONCLUSIONS Tumor necrosis factor-alpha is involved in the respiratory IgA immune response to injury. Both TNF-alpha blockade and PN impair this innate response, and blockade of IL-1beta impairs it to a degree. We hypothesize that these cytokines blunt this response via their known effects on the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR), whereas the PN-induced deficit likely is multifactorial.

Abstract
Major trauma induces metabolic alterations that contribute to the systemic immune suppression in severely injured patients and increase the risk of infection and posttraumatic organ failure. Nutrition modulation of cellular processes has evolved into a high-priority therapy, backed by substantial scientific evidence. The appropriate selection, timing, and dose of nutrients required for metabolic resuscitation must be individualized and goal directed. Ideally, the nutritional interventions for warfighters will be developed strategically based on the extent of injuries and underlying deficiencies and will be designed to provide the nutrients necessary to balance hypermetabolic processes, heal wounds, and promote optimal recovery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Secretory immunoglobulin A (SIgA) is the specific immune antibacterial defense. Since pneumonia frequently complicates the course of trauma patients, we studied early airway immune responses after injury. METHODS Twelve severely injured, intubated (expected for >/=5 d) patients had tracheal and bilateral lung lavage (BAL) within 30 hours of injury (n = 12). Epithelial lining fluid (ELF) volume and SIgA were measured by urea dilution and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), respectively. Control BAL specimens were obtained from eight healthy elective surgical patients. Anatomically based comparisons were made between groups with Welch's unpaired t test. To verify human data, 30 male mice received no injury (time 0, n = 7) or injury with abdominal and neck incisions and were killed for airway IgA at 4 (n = 7), 8 (n = 8), and 24 (n = 8) hours. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Fisher's protected least significant difference testing was used to analyze animal data. RESULTS Initial trauma patient SIgA concentration (SIgA/mL ELF) increased compared with control in the lungs bilaterally (p < 0.05 both right and left). ELF volume was significantly higher in the right lung (p = 0.02) and just missed statistical significance (p = 0.07) on the left. Mouse IgA increased 8 hours after stress (p < 0.05 versus 0, 4, and 24 hours) and returned to normal by 24 hours. CONCLUSION A previously unrecognized innate human airway mucosal immune response with increased airway SIgA and ELF occurs after severe injury and is reproducible experimentally. This accessible, quantifiable human response allows study of clinical strategies to reduce infections via mucosal immune therapies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Secretory immunoglobulin A (IgA) prevents pathogen adherence at mucosal surfaces to prevent infection. Polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR), located on the basolateral surface of mucosal cells, binds dimeric IgA produced by B cells with the cooperation of T cells in the lamina propria. This IgA-pIgR complex is transported apically, where it is exocytosed as secretory IgA to the mucosal surface. Our prior work shows that parenteral nutrition (PN) impairs both airway and small intestine mucosal immunity by reducing T and B cells and IgA levels. This work examines intestinal and respiratory tissue-specific pIgR responses to PN. METHODS Cannulated male Institute of Cancer Research mice were randomized to Chow (n = 10) or PN (n = 10). After 5 days, animals were sacrificed and lavages obtained from the small intestine, lung (BAL = bronchoalveolar lavage), and nasal airways (NAL). Small intestine, lung, and nasal passage tissues were also collected. Lavage and tissue homogenate IgA levels were quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and pIgR by Western blot. RESULTS PN group SIL and NAL IgA levels dropped significantly compared with Chow. PN significantly reduced pIgR levels in the SI while no pIgR change was noted in nasal passages and lung pIgR actually increased with PN. Tissue homogenate IgA levels did not change with PN in the SI while levels in the nasal passage and lung decreased. CONCLUSIONS PN impairs airway mucosal immunity by reduction in IgA available for transport rather than via a reduction in pIgR levels. In the small intestine, diminished pIgR is implicated in the deterioration of antibody-mediated mucosal immunity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mucosal addressin cellular adhesion molecule-1 (MAdCAM-1) directs lymphocyte migration into gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) through Peyer's patches (PPs). Parenteral nutrition (PN) impairs mucosal immunity by reducing PPs MAdCAM-1 expression, T and B cells in GALT, and intestinal and respiratory immunoglobulin (Ig) A levels. We previously showed that PN reduces lymphotoxin beta receptor blockade (LTbetaR) in PPs and intestine, and that stimulation with LTbetaR agonist antibodies reverses these defects. To confirm that LTbetaR regulates transcription of MAdCAM-1 message and more fully understand the effects of LTbetaR on MAdCAM-1 function within the mucosal immune system, we studied the effect of LTbetaR blockade with a chimeric LTbetaR Ig-fusion protein on MAdCAM-1 mRNA levels, PP lymphocyte mass and IgA levels in the intestinal and respiratory tracts. METHODS Mice were cannulated and killed 3 days after receiving chow + control Ig, chow + LTbetaR-Ig fusion protein (100 microg IV), or PN + control Ig. The PPs of half of the animals were processed for lymphocyte count, and the other half were processed for complementary DNA and subsequent polymerase chain reaction (PCR). mRNA levels of MAdCAM-1 were determined by real-time PCR; intestinal and respiratory IgA levels were measured by ELISA. RESULTS PN significantly reduced PP lymphocyte mass, MAdCAM-1 mRNA, and intestinal IgA. As anticipated, LTbetaR blockade significantly decreased PP cells and MAdCAM-1 mRNA, but not intestinal IgA because chow feeding was maintained. Both LTbetaR blockade and PN decreased nasal IgA, but not significantly. CONCLUSIONS LTbetaR blockade in chow animals significantly reduces transcription of MAdCAM-1 gene and PPs lymphocyte mass. These data implicate inadequate LTbetaR signaling as a major mechanism for decreased GALT cells with lack of enteral stimulation, and further establish the role of LTbetaR in the mucosal immune system.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lack of enteral nutrition reduces gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) mass and function, a mechanism underlying the increased morbidity of infectious complications in severely injured or critically ill patients. Strategies to restore parenteral nutrition (PN)-induced changes of GALT mass and function have been pursued. However, the influences of adding fish oil to PN on gut immunity remain to be clarified. METHODS Male Institute of Cancer Research (ICR) mice (n = 50) were randomized to 4 groups: ad libitum chow (chow), fat free PN (fat (-)-PN), PN + fish oil (FO-PN), and PN + safflower oil (SO-PN). The PN groups were given isocaloric and isonitrogenous PN solutions. The FO- and SO-PN groups received 20% of total calories from fat emulsions. After 5 days of feeding, lymphocytes from Peyer's patches (PPs), the intraepithelial space (IE), and the lamina propria (LP) of the entire small intestine were isolated. GALT lymphocyte numbers and phenotypes (CD4+, CD8+, alphabetaTCR+, gammadeltaTCR+, B220+ cells) were determined. Immunoglobulin A (IgA) levels of small intestinal washings were also measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Another set of mice (n = 24) was used to determine plasma fatty acid compositions after feeding. RESULTS Lymphocyte numbers from PPs and the LP and intestinal IgA levels were significantly lower in the PN groups than in the chow group, with no significant differences between any 2 PN groups. The FO- and SO-PN groups showed moderate recovery of IE cell numbers compared with the fat (-)-PN group. Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acid levels were increased with fish and safflower oil additions, respectively, compared with the fat (-)-PN group. CONCLUSIONS Adding fish oil to PN does not exacerbate PN-induced GALT changes but rather partially reverses these changes, with increased plasma omega-3 fatty acid levels.

Abstract
The last 4 decades have seen an explosion in nutritional research investigating both clinical and laboratory issues occurring in diverse groups of patients who cannot maintain a normal oral diet. Over the past 25 years, researchers have investigated how the administration of macro- and micronutrients via the gastrointestinal tract provides additional benefit over parenteral administration of similar nutrients. The administration of enteral feeding provides effects that are far beyond those of merely administering macro- and micronutrients. Rather, the processing of nutrients via the gastrointestinal tract stimulates a complex response that has implications for body composition and for immunologic integrity. Route and type of nutrition are important aspects of successful patient recovery.
