Early nutrition is safe and does not increase complications after upper gastrointestinal bleeding-a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. Sci Rep 2024; 14:10725. [PMID: 38730079 PMCID: PMC11087503 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-61543-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2023] [Accepted: 05/07/2024] [Indexed: 05/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Despite a lack of evidence, patients are often not fed for 48-96 h after upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB); however, many trials have demonstrated the benefits of early nutrition (EN). We conducted a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RTCs) to evaluate the outcomes of EN compared to delayed nutrition (DN) after UGIB. The protocol was registered on PROSPERO (CRD42022372306). PubMed, Embase, CENTRAL, Scopus, and Web of Science were searched on the 27th of April 2024 to identify eligible RCTs. The primary outcomes were early (within 7 days) and late (within 30-42 days) mortality and rebleeding. Pooled risk ratios (RR), mean differences (MD), and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated using a random-effects model. A total of 10 trials with 1051 patients were included in the analysis. Early mortality was not significantly different between the two groups (RR 1.20, CI 0.85-1.71, I2 = 0%), whereas late mortality was reduced to a clinically relevant extent in the EN group (RR 0.61, CI 0.35-1.06, I2 = 0%). When comparing the two groups, we found no significant difference in terms of early and late rebleeding (RR 1.04, CI 0.66-1.63, I2 = 0% and RR 1.16, CI 0.63-2.13, I2 = 0%, respectively). Our analysis also showed that the length of hospital stay was reduced in the EN group compared to the DN group (MD -1.22 days, CI: -2.43 to -0.01, I2 = 94%). In conclusion, compared with DN, EN (within 24 h) appears to be a safe intervention and could reduce the length of hospital stay without increasing the risk of complications after UGIB.

An Open-label Randomized Controlled Trial of Early Initiation of Nasogastric Feeding After Endotherapy in Variceal Bleeding: A Proof-of-concept Study. J Clin Exp Hepatol 2024; 14:101260. [PMID: 38076376 PMCID: PMC10709198 DOI: 10.1016/j.jceh.2023.07.413] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/16/2023] [Accepted: 07/22/2023] [Indexed: 01/18/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Limited data exist on the safety of early nasogastric (NG) feeding in patients with cirrhosis after endotherapy for variceal bleeding (VB). We studied the impact of early NG tube feeding in these patients in this proof-of-concept open-label randomized controlled trial. METHODS Eligible patients with cirrhosis undergoing endotherapy for VB were randomized to receive either a liquid diet through a 14 Fr NG tube (commencing 1 h after endotherapy) (early feeding [EF] group) or sips of water and lemon water orally (standard-of-care [SOC] group) for total duration of 48 h. The primary outcome was 5-day rebleeding in both arms. Other outcomes included 5-day infection rate, hepatic encephalopathy during hospitalization, and 6-week mortality. RESULTS Eighty patients (Mean age: 41 ± 11.5 years; males [82.5%]; alcohol etiology [55%]) were included. Baseline median Child-Pugh and MELD scores were similar (CTP: 8 [IQR: 8-9] vs 9 [8-9.25]; P = 0.47 and MELDNa: 13 [10.75-16.25] vs 15 [12-18.25]; P = 0.16). The 5-day rebleeding rates in EF and SOC groups were 2.5% and 5%, respectively (P = 0.55), and non-inferiority or superiority of either could not be demonstrated. The incidence of infection (2.5% [EF] vs 2.5% [SOC]; P = 1.00) and development of HE (5% [EF] vs 2.5% [SOC]; P = 0.36) during hospitalization were comparable. The average daily calorie and protein intake in the EF group during the 48 h was 1318 ± 240 Kcals and 43.4 ± 9.2 g of proteins. No patient in the EF group had feed intolerance. CONCLUSION Early initiation of NG tube-based feeding after endotherapy in VB appears safe and well tolerated without the additional risk of rebleeding or encephalopathy.

Abstract
AIM No studies have compared the clinical outcomes of early and delayed feeding in patients with acute lower gastrointestinal bleeding (ALGIB). This study aimed to evaluate the benefits and risks of early feeding in a nationwide cohort of patients with ALGIB in whom haemostasis was achieved. METHODS We reviewed data for 5910 patients with ALGIB in whom haemostasis was achieved and feeding was resumed within 3 days after colonoscopy at 49 hospitals across Japan (CODE BLUE-J Study). Patients were divided into an early feeding group (≤1 day, n = 3324) and a delayed feeding group (2-3 days, n = 2586). Clinical outcomes were compared between the groups by propensity matching analysis of 1508 pairs. RESULTS There was no significant difference between the early and delayed feeding groups in the rebleeding rate within 7 days after colonoscopy (9.4% vs. 8.0%; p = 0.196) or in the rebleeding rate within 30 days (11.4% vs. 11.5%; p = 0.909). There was also no significant between-group difference in the need for interventional radiology or surgery or in mortality. However, the median length of hospital stay after colonoscopy was significantly shorter in the early feeding group (5 vs. 7 days; p < 0.001). These results were unchanged when subgroups of presumptive and definitive colonic diverticular bleeding were compared. CONCLUSION The findings of this nationwide study suggest that early feeding after haemostasis can shorten the hospital stay in patients with ALGIB without increasing the risk of rebleeding.

Abstract
Nearly two-thirds of patients with cirrhosis suffer from malnutrition resulting from multiple contributory factors such as poor intake, accelerated starvation, catabolic milieu, and anabolic resistance. Nutritional assessment and optimization are integral to adequate management of a liver transplant (LT) candidate. A detailed nutritional assessment should be done at baseline in all potential transplant candidates with periodic reassessments. Sarcopenia is defined as a reduction in muscle mass, function, and/or performance. Skeletal muscle index at 3rd lumbar vertebra determined by computed tomography is the most objective tool to assess muscle mass. Hand-grip strength and gait speed are simple tools to gauge muscle strength and performance, respectively. Sarcopenia, sarcopenic obesity, and myosteatosis portend poor outcomes. Sarcopenia contributes greatly to frailty, which is a syndrome of reduced physiological reserve and impaired response to stressors. Dietary interventions must ensure adequate calorie (35-40 kcal/kg/day) and protein (1.2-1.5 gm/kg/day) intake via multiple frequent meals and late-evening calorie-dense snack. Micronutrient supplementation is essential, keeping in mind the etiology of cirrhosis. Individualized, gradually up-titrated exercise prescription consisting of both aerobic and resistance training of 150 min/week is advisable after appropriate risk assessment. Early initiation of enteral nutrition within 12-24 h of LT is recommended. Data with respect to immune-nutrition, monomeric formulas, and hormone replacement remain conflicting at present. A multidisciplinary team comprising of hepatologists, transplant surgeons, intensivists, dieticians, and physiotherapists is vital to improve overall nutrition and outcomes in this vulnerable group.

Abstract
Malnutrition is a common finding in alcohol use disorders and is associated with the prognosis of patients with alcoholic liver disease (ALD). These patients also frequently show deficiencies in vitamins and trace elements, increasing the likelihood of anemia and altered cognitive status. The etiology of malnutrition in ALD patients is multifactorial and complex and includes inadequate dietary intake, abnormal absorption and digestion, increased skeletal and visceral protein catabolism, and abnormal interactions between ethanol and lipid metabolism. Most nutritional measures derive from general chronic liver disease recommendations. Recently, many patients with ALD have been diagnosed with metabolic syndrome, which requires individualized treatment via nutritional therapy to avoid overnutrition. As ALD progresses to cirrhosis, it is frequently complicated by protein–energy malnutrition and sarcopenia. Nutritional therapy is also important in the management of ascites and hepatic encephalopathy as liver failure progresses. The purpose of the review is to summarize important nutritional therapies for the treatment of ALD.

Abstract
Sarcopenia and frailty are frequent in cirrhosis, and both contribute to increased morbidity and mortality. The complex pathogenesis of sarcopenia in cirrhosis is mainly determined by hyperammonemia and malnutrition. Sarcopenia/frailty screening and reevaluation should be undertaken in all cirrhotic patients. Frailty tests are useful in the ambulatory setting, whereas the computed tomography scan is the diagnostic gold standard for sarcopenia. To manage sarcopenia/frailty, a multidisciplinary team should develop a personalized comprehensive care plan that includes patient education, protein/calorie intake goals, late evening meals, exercise programs, and micronutrient replenishment. In selected patients, branched-chain amino acid and testosterone supplements may also be beneficial.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Early feeding was previously considered to increase the risk of postprocedural bleeding. However, many trials have demonstrated the benefits of early feeding after therapeutic endoscopic procedures. We conducted a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials to evaluate the safety and outcomes between early feeding and delayed feeding after therapeutic endoscopic procedures. METHODS Medline (PubMed), Embase, Google Scholar, the Cochrane Library, and clinicaltrials.gov were searched to identify randomized controlled trials that met our inclusion criteria. The pooled data for the mortality rate, postprocedural bleeding rate, and length of hospital stay were analyzed. RESULTS A total of seven trials consisting of 717 patients were reviewed. These seven trials examined various therapeutic endoscopic procedures. Three trials included patients undergoing endoscopic hemostasis for upper gastrointestinal bleeding, two included patients undergoing esophageal variceal ligation, and two included patients with gastric neoplasm treated with endoscopic submucosal dissection. Although no significant differences were observed in the postprocedural bleeding rate or the mortality rate between patients who received early feeding and those who received delayed feeding, early feeding resulted in shorter hospital stays (weighted mean difference -1.04, 95% confidence interval -1.45 to 0.63). CONCLUSION Early feeding appears to be a safe management method for patients undergoing therapeutic endoscopic procedures. Therefore, we recommend early feeding for these patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding can carry minimal or significant risk for recurrent hemorrhage. Timing of feeding after GI bleeding remains an area of debate, and here we review the evidence supporting recommendations. RECENT FINDINGS Improved understanding of the pathophysiology of GI bleeding and the evolution of treatment strategies has significantly altered the management of GI bleeding and the associated propensity for rebleeding. Early feeding following peptic ulcer bleeding remains ill-advised for high risk lesions while early initiation of liquid diets following cessation of esophageal variceal bleeding is appropriate and shortens hospital stays. Time to feeding following GI bleeding is inherently based on the disease etiology, severity, and risk of recurrent hemorrhage. With evolving standards of care, rates of rebleeding following endoscopic hemostasis are decreasing. Some evidence exists for early feeding however, larger multi-center trials are needed to help optimize timing of feeding in higher risk lesions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of early oral nutrition (EON) after endoscopic treatment compared with parenteral nutrition (PN) for patients with gastroesophageal variceal bleeding varices as cirrhotic complications. METHODS This historical-prospective study enrolled patients from Qilu Hospital of Shandong University in China with gastroesophageal varices as cirrhotic complications and undergoing endoscopic therapy. A total of 197 patients who fasted for 4 h after treatment were prospectively enrolled as the oral nutrition group whereas those who fasted for more than 48 h were retrospectively matched in a ratio of 1:1 as the parenteral nutrition group. The primary endpoint was variceal re-bleeding, whereas the secondary endpoints were mortality and adverse events during the 42-day follow-up. Hospitalisation duration and expenses, levels of inflammatory factors, defecation time, and the satisfaction of patients were evaluated. RESULTS During the 42-day follow-up, no significant difference was observed in the rate of variceal re-bleeding (P = 0.586) and morality (P = 1.000) between the oral nutrition group and the parenteral nutrition group. However, the average days of hospitalisation (P < 0.001) and expenses (P < 0.001) were significantly decreased in the oral nutrition group. Furthermore, C-reactive protein lever (P = 0.002) and defecation time (P < 0.001) were lower, whereas the satisfaction rate was higher (P < 0.001) in the oral nutrition group than those in the parenteral nutrition group. Linear regression analysis showed that tissue adhesive dosage was related to diet time (P = 0.038, 95% CI: 0,135-4.516). CONCLUSIONS EON was proven to be safe, feasible, and hence, recommended after endoscopic treatment in patients with cirrhosis. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Abstract
In hospitals through Europe and worldwide, the practices regarding hospital diets are very heterogeneous. Hospital diets are rarely prescribed by physicians, and sometimes the choices of diets are based on arbitrary reasons. Often prescriptions are made independently from the evaluation of nutritional status, and without taking into account the nutritional status. Therapeutic diets (low salt, gluten-free, texture and consistency modified, …) are associated with decreased energy delivery (i.e. underfeeding) and increased risk of malnutrition. The European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (ESPEN) proposes here evidence-based recommendations regarding the organization of food catering, the prescriptions and indications of diets, as well as monitoring of food intake at hospital, rehabilitation center, and nursing home, all of these by taking into account the patient perspectives. We propose a systematic approach to adapt the hospital food to the nutritional status and potential food allergy or intolerances. Particular conditions such as patients with dysphagia, older patients, gastrointestinal diseases, abdominal surgery, diabetes, and obesity, are discussed to guide the practitioner toward the best evidence based therapy. The terminology of the different useful diets is defined. The general objectives are to increase the awareness of physicians, dietitians, nurses, kitchen managers, and stakeholders towards the pivotal role of hospital food in hospital care, to contribute to patient safety within nutritional care, to improve coverage of nutritional needs by hospital food, and reduce the risk of malnutrition and its related complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Few studies have directly compared the efficacy of sedated- and un-sedated endoscopic variceal ligation (EVL) for acute variceal bleeding. We aimed to determine whether sedation during EVL in patients with variceal bleeding is safe and effective. METHODS We analyzed data from patients who underwent EVL for acute variceal bleeding according to sedation in six hospitals of Hallym University Medical Center. The primary endpoint was treatment failure, defined as a failure to control bleeding, death during EVL, or rebleeding within 5 days. Secondary endpoints included the procedure time, adverse events, and 30-day mortality. RESULTS Of 1,300 patients who were included, only 430 (33.1%) received sedation during EVL. Propofol alone was used for sedation in 85% of sedated-EVLs. The mean procedure time in the sedation group was shorter than that of the non-sedation group (12.4 ± 9.5 min versus 13.8 ± 9.4 min, P = 0.010). The proportion of treatment failure did not differ between the groups (7.4% versus 9.1%, P = 0.374). In the multivariable analysis, an AIMS65 score ≥2 and blood transfusion within 72 hours were associated with treatment failure of EVL; however, the use of sedation was not (odds ratio [95% confidence interval (CI)] = 0.96 [0.60-1.51]). Adverse events during EVL and hepatic encephalopathy did not differ between the two groups. Sedation also did not affect the 30-day mortality (hazard ratio [95% CI] = 0.99 [0.66-1.47]). CONCLUSION Sedation reduced the procedure time of EVL. Sedation is safe to use during EVL for variceal bleeding in patients with cirrhosis.
