Barrera R, Poindexter K, Tucker C, Winkler MF, Dashti HS. Amplifying the lived experiences of parenteral nutrition consumers through the thematic analysis of social media posts. Nutr Clin Pract 2024; 39:850-858. [PMID: 38063263 PMCID: PMC11161556 DOI: 10.1002/ncp.11097] [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: 09/01/2023] [Revised: 10/29/2023] [Accepted: 11/04/2023] [Indexed: 06/09/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Consumers of parenteral nutrition (PN) and their caregivers use social media to seek advice and support from their peers and to share experiences. We aimed to leverage posts from a social media patient community to identify common lived experiences of consumers of PN to prioritize opportunities for support through advocacy, education, and research. METHODS Anonymous posts with high engagement were collected over 4 months from a PN-focused social media support group platform. No personal information was collected or analyzed. Post content was reviewed for demographic characteristics. Thematic analysis involved inductive coding to identify content-based keywords. Keywords were then used to form major themes and subthemes that were then quantified by post counts. RESULTS A total of 306 social media posts were analyzed. Most were from adult PN consumers (80.4%) and pertained to home-based PN (82%). Equivalent number of posts (5%) were from new consumers and those who had not yet started or restarting PN. The analysis revealed 12 major themes with 2-11 subthemes each, spanning medical, nutrition, emotional, and social aspects. The most prevalent theme was "Best practices, care, and safety of PN use" (36.9%), covering posts seeking guidance on line care, personal hygiene, equipment use, and vascular access devices. Others included "Symptoms" (23.9%) and "Patient safety concerns of PN handling by healthcare providers" (16.0%). CONCLUSIONS The identified themes provide a broader understanding of contemporary shared lived experiences and concerns relevant to PN consumers and their caregivers. Given the evolving nature of daily stressors, periodic reanalysis may be necessary.

Efficacy and safety of glucagon-like peptide 2 in patients with short bowel syndrome: a systematic review and network meta-analysis. J Gastrointest Surg 2024; 28:1194-1205. [PMID: 38663565 DOI: 10.1016/j.gassur.2024.04.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2023] [Revised: 04/03/2024] [Accepted: 04/12/2024] [Indexed: 05/28/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Glucagon-like peptide 2 (GLP-2) is a highly conserved enteroendocrine hormone that seems to be a regulator promoting intestinal adaptation. This study aimed to summarize the evidence on the efficacy and safety of exogenous GLP-2 in patients with short bowel syndrome (SBS). METHODS A database search was performed on PubMed, Web of Science Core Collection, Scopus, Ovid, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials in November 2022. Clinical trials on the effect of GLP-2 on patients with SBS were included. The Cochrane Risk of Bias 2 and Risk Of Bias In Non-randomized Studies - of Interventions tools for quality assessment of randomized and nonrandomized trials were used. The extracted data were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively using a network meta-analysis model. RESULTS This study included 23 clinical trials with 843 patients. The patients' ages ranged from 4.0 to 62.4 years. The treatment doses were 0.1, 0.05, and 0.025 mg/kg/day for teduglutide; 5 and 10 mg/week for apraglutide, and 0.1, 1, and 10 mg/day for glepaglutide. The treatment duration ranged from 1 to 32 weeks. Regarding citrulline level, 0.1 mg/kg/day of teduglutide had the highest mean difference (MD; 14.77; 95% CI, 10.20-19.33), followed by 0.05 mg/kg/day (13.04; 95% CI, 9.79-16.2) and 0.025 mg/kg/day (7.84; 95% CI, 2.42-13.26) of teduglutide. In addition, the effect estimate showed significant differences between all teduglutide dose groups and the control group. Different doses of glepaglutide were analyzed to assess the effect on alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels, in which 0.1 mg/day of glepaglutide showed a significantly higher MD (20.71; 95% CI, 2.62-38.80) than 1 mg/day (the reference) and 10 mg/day (8.45; 95% CI, -10.72 to 27.62) of glepaglutide. However, 0.1 vs 10 mg of glepaglutide has an MD of -14.57 (95% CI, -437.24 to 148.11) for the indirect estimate, whereas 10 mg of glepaglutide has an MD of 8.45 (95% CI, -10.72 to 27.62) for the network estimate. Regarding safety outcomes, there was no significant difference among all teduglutide and apraglutide dose groups compared with the control group. Catheter-related bloodstream infection was the most common adverse event reported with the use of apraglutide, teduglutide, and glepaglutide. CONCLUSION Despite the small number of patients in the included studies and variable follow-up duration, GLP-2 seems to be safe and effective in patients with SBS. GLP-2 showed a positive effect on increasing plasma citrulline level and decreasing ALP level.

Abstract
Purpose Understanding the quality of life and the factors that influence it for patients with short bowel syndrome (SBS) and their caregivers is of utmost importance in order to enhance their well-being. Therefore, This study aimed to provide a comprehensive understanding of the impact of SBS on patients and their caregivers, as well as its associated factors, by synthesizing the available evidence. Methods A systematic review of the literature was done using PubMed, Embase databases, CNKI, and ISPOR conference papers. Included articles were manually searched to identify any other relevant studies. Quality was assessed using appropriate Joanna Briggs Institute critical appraisal tools. Results This review included 16 studies, comprising 15 observational studies and 1 randomized controlled trial. The findings revealed that the QoL of patients with SBS was lower than that of the general population regarding physical functioning and psychological domain. Meanwhile, caregivers experienced challenges in maintaining their QoL. The QoL of SBS patients was found to be influenced by various factors such as treatment, age, sex, stoma, and small intestine length. Among them, the treatment is the most noteworthy factor that can be effectively improved through external interventions. Conclusion While numerous studies have provided insights into the compromised QoL experienced by individuals with SBS and their caregivers, there remains a scarcity of large-sample quantitative investigations examining the determinants of QoL. The existing body of literature on caregivers is also notably deficient.

Abstract
Outcomes for patients with chronic intestinal failure have improved with organization of experts into multidisciplinary teams delivering care in intestinal rehabilitation programs. There have been improvements in understanding of intestinal failure complications as well as development of newer therapies that have amplified the improvements in survival. In spite of this encouraging trend, patients who fail PN are often referred too late for intestinal transplantation. The author proposes a more rational framework that might allow earlier identification of intestinal failure patients at risk for PN-failure, who could appropriately be considered earlier for intestinal transplantation with improvements in overall outcomes.

Am J Clin Nutr 2024; 119:1187-1199. [PMID: 38431119 PMCID: PMC11130673 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajcnut.2024.02.031] [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: 09/03/2023] [Revised: 02/22/2024] [Accepted: 02/28/2024] [Indexed: 03/05/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Short bowel syndrome with intestinal failure (SBS-IF) is a rare but devastating medical condition. An absolute loss of bowel length forces the patients into parenteral support dependency and a variety of medical sequelae, resulting in increased morbidity and mortality. Interdisciplinary treatment may include therapy with the effective but expensive intestinotrophic peptide teduglutide. OBJECTIVES A time-discrete Markov model was developed to simulate the treatment effect [lifetime costs, quality-adjusted life years (QALYs), and life years (LYs)] of teduglutide plus best supportive care compared with best supportive care alone in patients with SBS-IF. METHODS The health status of the model was structured around the number of days on PS. Clinical data from 3 data sets were used: 1) an Austrian observational study (base case), 2) pooled observational cohort studies, and 3) a prospective study of teduglutide effectiveness in parenteral nutrition-dependent short bowel syndrome subjects. Direct and indirect costs were derived from published sources. QALYs, LYs, and costs were discounted (3% per annum). RESULTS Under the base case assumption, teduglutide is associated with costs of 2,296,311 € per patient and 10.78 QALYs (13.74 LYs) over a lifetime horizon. No teduglutide is associated with 1,236,816 € and 2.24 QALYs (8.57 LYs). The incremental cost-utility ratio (ICUR) amounts to 123,945 €. In case of the pooled clinical data set, the ICUR increases to 184,961 €. If clinical data based on the study of teduglutide effectiveness in parenteral nutrition-dependent short bowel syndrome subjects were used, the ICUR increased to 235,612 €. CONCLUSIONS Teduglutide in treating patients with SBS-IF meets the traditional cost-effectiveness criteria from a European societal perspective. Nevertheless, the varying concentrations of teduglutide efficacy leave a degree of uncertainty in the calculations.

Abstract
Despite limited research, existing studies using generic quality of life (QOL) tools indicate decreased physical health and compromised emotional functioning in children with IF. This study investigates QOL in children with short bowel syndrome (SBS) and its determinants. The study included 57 pediatric patients with SBS treated at Mannheim's University Hospital between 1998 and 2014. To evaluate QOL, the KINDL questionnaire was used. Three age-specific questionnaire variants were employed, and parental proxy reports were collected. Most patients underwent intestinal lengthening procedures, with varying primary diagnoses. A comparison with healthy children from the patient's perspective revealed no difference but from the parent's perspective showed lower QOL in SBS patients, especially regarding physical and mental well-being. QOL varied with age, with 7-10-year-olds reporting the lowest scores. Several factors, including independence from parenteral nutrition and the presence of a complete colon, positively influenced QOL. The independence of parenteral nutrition and the presence of a complete colon positively influenced QOL. The Bianchi technique for intestinal lengthening has also shown promise but needs further research. The observation sample in this study is too small to generalize about the whole population of SBS patients. However, this study shows that many health and treatment factors affect QOL, and a large multicenter study is necessary. Our findings underline the importance of appropriate psychological support for children with SBS and their families.

Abstract
(1) Background: We present the first real-world-data study on teduglutide-treated SBS patients in the Slovak Republic and the first study to enable the comparison of the effects of teduglutide treatment between the adult and pediatric populations. (2) Methods: This was a non-interventional retrospective cohort study of adult and pediatric SBS patients treated with teduglutide. Primary and secondary endpoints were the results of teduglutide use at 12 weeks and 6 months after the initiation of treatment, compared to baseline. (3) Results: Teduglutide treatment led to a statistically significant reduction in the volume of intravenous hydration, HPN caloric intake, HPN and intravenous hydration applications per week and to increased urine output in adult patients. The results in the pediatric population were similar, but not statistically significant. A complete weaning off HPN was achieved in 57.14% of all patients (50.00% of children; 62.50% of adults) after a median of 0.99 years of teduglutide treatment (1.07 and 0.98 years for children and adults, respectively). (4) Conclusions: Teduglutide treatment in SBS patients leads to considerable reduction in or even weaning off PN in both pediatric and adult patients.

Abstract
Short bowel syndrome (SBS) is a rare but serious condition that may lead to chronic intestinal failure. Citrulline concentrations are currently used to reflect the residual intestinal mass in patients with SBS, although this method has several limitations. In a cohort of patients with SBS, we quantified apolipoprotein B-48 (ApoB-48), which is exclusively synthesized by enterocytes and secreted associated with dietary lipids and investigated the relationship between ApoB-48 and clinical and biological data as well as PN dependence. A total of 51 adult patients were included, 36 of whom were PN-dependent. We found a robust positive correlation between circulating ApoB-48 and residual small bowel length, which was also found in the subgroup of patients with jejunocolic anastomosis. Fasting ApoB-48 levels were significantly lower in PN-dependent patients than in PN-weaned patients and negatively correlated with parenteral nutrition dependence. Our results suggest that ApoB-48 could be proposed as a marker of intestinal absorptive function and could be an interesting follow-up marker in patients with SBS.

Abstract
Surgical procedures are extremely burdensome for patients, as in addition to complications directly related to the intervention, they expose the patient to further complications resulting from the disturbance of key functions of homeostasis in the body's systems, particularly the circulatory, respiratory, and nervous systems. Furthermore, they may contribute to the exacerbation of symptoms of underlying chronic diseases. This paper focuses on the most common possible neurological complications that may occur after surgical procedures and includes topics such as stroke, chronic pain, neuropathy, and delirium. The risk factors for neurological deficits, their known or possible etiology, the most characteristic symptoms, and potential preventive actions are discussed. The paper analyzes articles from the PubMed, ResearchGate, and Scopus databases. A surge0on's knowledge of possible complications that may occur in the perioperative period enables early recognition and effective reduction of their negative impact on the patient's functioning and quality of life after surgery, contributing to better overall treatment outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND International practice guidelines for high-stool-output (HSO) management in short bowel syndrome (SBS) are available, but data on implementation are lacking. This study describes the approach used to manage HSO in SBS patients across different global regions. METHODS This is an international multicenter study evaluating medical management of HSO in SBS patients using a questionnaire survey. Thirty-three intestinal-failure centers were invited to complete the survey as one multidisciplinary team. RESULTS Survey response rate was 91%. Dietary recommendations varied based on anatomy and geographic region. For patients without colon-in-continuity (CiC), clinical practices were generally consistent with ESPEN guidelines, including separation of fluid from solid food (90%), a high-sodium diet (90%), and a low-simple-sugar diet (75%). For CiC patients, practices less closely followed guidelines, such as a low-fat diet (35%) or a high-sodium diet (50%). First-line antimotility and antisecretory medications were loperamide and proton-pump inhibitors. Other therapeutic agents (e.g., pancreatic enzymes and bile acid binders) were utilized in real-world practices, and usage varied based on intestinal anatomy. CONCLUSION Expert centers largely followed published HSO-management guidelines for SBS patients without CiC, but clinical practices deviated substantially for CiC patients. Determining the reasons for this discrepancy might inform future development of practice guidelines.

Abstract
Short-bowel syndrome (SBS) in pediatric age is defined as a malabsorptive state, resulting from congenital malformations, significant small intestine surgical resection or disease-associated loss of absorption. SBS is the leading cause of intestinal failure in children and the underlying cause in 50% of patients on home parental nutrition. It is a life-altering and life-threatening disease due to the inability of the residual intestinal function to maintain nutritional homeostasis of protein, fluid, electrolyte or micronutrient without parenteral or enteral supplementation. The use of parenteral nutrition (PN) has improved medical care in SBS, decreasing mortality and improving the overall prognosis. However, the long-term use of PN is associated with the incidence of many complications, including liver disease and catheter-associated malfunction and bloodstream infections (CRBSIs). This manuscript is a narrative review of the current available evidence on the management of SBS in the pediatric population, focusing on prognostic factors and outcome. The literature review showed that in recent years, the standardization of management has demonstrated to improve the quality of life in these complex patients. Moreover, the development of knowledge in clinical practice has led to a reduction in mortality and morbidity. Diagnostic and therapeutic decisions should be made by a multidisciplinary team that includes neonatologists, pediatric surgeons, gastroenterologists, pediatricians, nutritionists and nurses. A significant improvement in prognosis can occur through the careful monitoring of nutritional status, avoiding dependence on PN and favoring an early introduction of enteral nutrition, and through the prevention, diagnosis and aggressive treatment of CRSBIs and SIBO. Multicenter initiatives, such as research consortium or data registries, are mandatory in order to personalize the management of these patients, improve their quality of life and reduce the cost of care.

Abstract
Short bowel syndrome (SBS) is a rare disorder with known physical, psychosocial, and economic burdens and significant morbidity and mortality. Many individuals with SBS require long-term home parenteral nutrition (HPN). The incidence and prevalence of SBS is difficult to determine because it is often based on HPN usage and may not account for those who receive intravenous fluids or achieve enteral autonomy. The most common etiologies associated with SBS are Crohn's disease and mesenteric ischemia. Intestinal anatomy and remnant bowel length are prognostic for HPN dependency, and enteral autonomy confers a survival advantage. Health economic data confirm that PN-related costs are higher for hospitalizations than at home; yet significant healthcare resource utilization is necessary for successful HPN, and patients and families report substantial financial distress that impacts quality of life (QOL). An important advancement in QOL measurement is the validation of HPN- and SBS-specific QOL questionnaires. In addition to the known factors negatively impacting QOL, such as diarrhea, pain, nocturia, fatigue, depression, and narcotic dependency, research has shown that the volume and number of PN infusions per week is associated with QOL. Although traditional QOL measurements describe how underlying disease and therapy influence life, they do not assess how symptoms and functional limitations affect the QOL of patients and caregivers. Patient-centered measures and conversation focused on psychosocial issues helps patients with SBS and HPN dependency better cope with their disease and treatment. This article presents a brief overview of SBS, including epidemiology, survival, costs, and QOL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Short bowel syndrome leading to intestinal failure (SBS-IF) is a condition characterised by the inability of the gut to absorb the amount of water, nutrients and micronutrients needed to survive and requires long term home parenteral nutrition (HPN) to sustain life. Health care professionals (HCPs) working with patients with SBS-IF are aware of the daily challenges patients face. However, few have experienced the condition first-hand and put themselves 'in the shoes' of their patients. In Their Shoes (ITS) is an immersive simulation delivered through a smartphone application (app), in which participants experience the typical real-life challenges that somebody with SBS-IF will experience over a 24-h period, including social and psychological challenges. This study evaluated the impact of ITS simulation on HCPs working with adults with SBS-IF. METHODS A representative sample of 27 multi-disciplinary team (MDT) members working on an Intestinal Failure Unit completed the ITS simulation over a 24-h period. A mixed methods design was used, which included participants completing a survey pre- and post-ITS experience, followed by focus groups and in-depth qualitative interviews. Pre- and post-intervention questions were analysed quantitively via paired t-tests and qualitative data arising from the focus groups and interviews were analysed using inductive thematic analysis. RESULTS 25 participants (93%) completed 80% of the ITS challenges whilst 27 (100%) completed more than 50% challenges. Participants reported a 16% increase in knowledge, 18% increase in being able to talk to others about SBS and a 2% increase in empathy between pre- and post-simulation. Nineteen team members participated in focus groups and 10 in-depth interviews; qualitative analysis of digital recordings comprised four overarching themes: empathy; admiration and respect; empathy fatigue; learning experience. Despite the small and insignificant increase in empathy scores quantitatively, analysis of open-ended questions and qualitative data found that 74% of participants reported an increase in empathy levels whereas 26% felt it stayed the same. CONCLUSIONS As a simulation-based learning method, ITS can have a positive impact on HCPs working into the SBS-IF setting. Positive benefits in clinical practice include increased levels of empathy, admiration and respect for patients amongst HCPs. Immersing into the ITS experience also allows HCPs to recognise the function and benefits to MDT working, both in terms of ensuring holistic patient centred care and managing HCP empathy fatigue.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review aims to analyze the evidence regarding the appropriateness of PEG placement in the following clinical situations: short bowel syndrome, head and neck cancer, dementia and palliative use in malignant bowel obstruction. RECENT FINDINGS Percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tubes are placed for a variety of clinical indications by numerous different specialties. First described in 1980, PEG tubes are now the dominant method of enteral access. Typically, PEG tubes are technically feasible procedures that can come with significant risk for both minor and major complications. Therefore, it is important to perform an in-depth, patient specific risk-benefit analysis when considering insertion. By analyzing the current evidence regarding benefits in these situations, superimposed by the lens of biomedical ethics, we make recommendations that are accessible to any provider who may be a consultant or proceduralist, helping to provide informed care that is in the patient's best interest.

Abstract
Adults have approximately 20 feet of small intestine, which is the primary site for absorbing essential nutrients and water. Resection of the intestine for any medical reason may result in short bowel syndrome (SBS), leading to loss of major absorptive surface area and resulting in various malabsorption and motility disorders. The mainstay of treatment is personalized close dietary management. Here we present SBS with its pathophysiology and different nutritional management options available. The central perspective of this paper is to provide a concise review of SBS and the treatment options available, along with how proper nutrition can solve major dietary issues in SBS and help patients recover faster.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Management of short-bowel syndrome with intestinal failure (SBS-IF) is complex and requires a multidisciplinary approach. Because of the rarity of SBS-IF, healthcare professionals (HCPs) often lack clinical experience with the disease and may benefit from education regarding SBS-IF and its management. This study identified unmet educational needs related to the management of patients with SBS-IF. METHODS This was a prospective, web-based survey (December 2019-January 2020) in which a series of clinical questions were posed to US HCPs after presenting three standardized SBS-IF cases to assess current practice patterns. HCPs were then asked a series of questions to identify potential knowledge gaps and unmet educational needs relating to SBS-IF management. RESULTS Overall, 558 HCPs completed the survey, with 12%-38% having a formal SBS-IF multidisciplinary team currently available to make treatment decisions within their institution. Clinicians involved in care included gastroenterologists (93%), registered dietitians (79%), gastroenterology nurse practitioners and physician assistants (37%), registered nurses (43%), social workers (45%), and psychologists/psychiatrists (27%). There was underuse of published guidelines and limited understanding of the course of intestinal adaptation. Responses to the clinical scenarios highlighted disparities in SBS-IF care delivery, including diagnosis, management goals, medications prescribed, and nutrition practices. CONCLUSIONS Future SBS-IF educational interventions for HCPs should aim to improve awareness and understanding of the disease, facilitate timely diagnosis, and standardize management practices to ensure patients receive optimal interdisciplinary care as widely as possible.

Abstract
Acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) is a group of diseases characterized by an interruption of the blood supply to varying portions of the intestine, leading to ischemia and secondary inflammatory changes. If untreated, this process may progress to life-threatening intestinal necrosis. The incidence is low, estimated at 0.09-0.2% of all acute surgical admissions, but increases with age. Although the entity is an uncommon cause of abdominal pain, diligence is required because if untreated, mortality remains in the range of 50%. Early diagnosis and timely surgical intervention are the cornerstones of modern treatment to reduce the high mortality associated with this entity. The advent of endovascular approaches in parallel with modern imaging techniques is evolving and provides new treatment options. Lastly, a focused multidisciplinary approach based on early diagnosis and individualized treatment is essential. Thus, we believe that updated guidelines from World Society of Emergency Surgery are warranted, in order to provide the most recent and practical recommendations for diagnosis and treatment of AMI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effects of ileocecocolic junction (ICJ) resection on gastrointestinal signs, biochemical parameters, and nutritional variables in dogs and cats. ANIMALS 20 dogs and 15 cats that underwent ICJ resection between January 2008 and June 2020. PROCEDURES Medical records of dogs and cats that underwent ICJ resection were reviewed, and clinical signs, laboratory abnormalities, and nutritional information were obtained. Additional follow-up information was obtained by contacting primary care veterinarians or owners. A subset of dogs (n = 6) and cats (2) were evaluated in the hospital via clinical examination, clinicopathologic testing, nutritional testing, and abdominal ultrasound. RESULTS Twenty dogs and 15 cats underwent resection of the ICJ for treatment of a variety of conditions. Ten of 20 dogs (50%) and 11/15 cats (73%) were reported by their owners to have a good long-term outcome based on the lack of long-term gastrointestinal signs or the ability to control gastrointestinal signs with diet and supplements alone. Despite owner-reported good outcomes, long-term diarrhea, weight loss, and muscle loss were common. Of the 6 dogs evaluated in the hospital, 3/6 (50%) had muscle loss, 2/6 (33%) had low taurine concentrations, and 1 dog each had low cobalamin, folate, 25-hydroxyvitamin D, and ionized calcium. Neither of the 2 cats evaluated in the hospital had nutritional abnormalities identified. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Owners should be informed of the possibility of long-term gastrointestinal clinical signs and the potential need for long-term nutritional management after ICJ resection.

Abstract
Short bowel syndrome (SBS) is a devastating disorder with both short- and long-term implications for patients. Unfortunately, the prevalence of SBS has doubled over the past 40 years. Broadly speaking, the etiology of SBS can be categorized as congenital or secondary, the latter typically due to extensive small bowel resection following diseases of the small intestine, e.g., necrotizing enterocolitis, Hirschsprung’s disease or intestinal atresia. As of yet, no cure exists, thus, conservative treatment, primarily parenteral nutrition (PN), is the first-line therapy. In some cases, weaning from PN is not possible and operative therapy is required. The invention of the longitudinal intestinal lengthening and tailoring (LILT or Bianchi) procedure in 1980 was a major step forward in patient care and spawned further techniques that continue to improve lives for patients with severe SBS (e.g., double barrel enteroplasty, serial transverse enteroplasty, etc.). With this review, we aim to provide an overview of the clinical implications of SBS, common conservative therapies and the development of operative techniques over the past six decades. We also provide a short outlook on the future of operative techniques, specifically with respect to regenerative medicine.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Short bowel syndrome (SBS) is a debilitating condition associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Historically, SBS patients require indefinite parenteral nutrition (PN) and endure lifelong nutritional challenges. The purpose of this study was to review the outcomes, specifically nutritional independence, of a multidisciplinary nutrition service. METHODS A retrospective analysis of SBS patients followed by our surgical nutrition service was performed. Patients without 1-year follow-up were excluded. Demographics and nutritional parameters were collected at 4 intervals: initial presentation, 1-year, 2-year, and 5-year follow-up. Short bowel syndrome anatomical subtypes identified through operative reports were characterized as end jejunostomy, jejunocolonic, or jejuno-ileocolonic with ileo-cecal valve intact. Intestinal failure was defined by the requirement of PN, while intestinal insufficiency was defined by enteral support requirement. Clinical outcomes examined included mortality, fistula closure, and nutritional independence. RESULTS The study cohort comprised 89 patients, 50 of whom had ≤ 100 cm intestinal length. Mean age was 57 ± 17y, 55 (62%) were female, and median initial intestinal length was 77 [60-120] cm. Short bowel syndrome was complicated by fistulas in 47 (53%) of patients. Overall mortality was 13%, and 67 (75%) were liberated from PN. A total of 58 (65%) underwent operative intervention and fistula closure was achieved in 37 of 47 (79%) patients. CONCLUSIONS Short bowel syndrome patients can experience significant benefit under treatment by a multidisciplinary nutrition service. By incorporating surgical intervention, the majority of patients previously relegated to lifelong PN have the opportunity to become nutritionally independent within 5 years.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Short bowel syndrome (SBS) patients are at risk to develop intestinal failure when the decreased absorption of macronutrients, water, and electrolytes necessitates parenteral support for survival. The adverse effects of SBS and parenteral support negatively affect the quality of life (QoL) of SBS-intestinal failure patients. However, spontaneous intestinal adaptation along with disease-modifying therapies allow reducing parenteral support, thereby improving QoL. RECENT FINDINGS During the first years following extensive surgery, spontaneous structural and functional intestinal changes take place which stimulate a more efficient nutrient and fluid absorption in the remaining bowel. Given their potential role in the ileal braking mechanism, enterohormones, such as glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-2, GLP-1, and peptide YY (PYY), promote an accelerated adaptation or hyperadaptation. While the exact role of GLP-1 and PYY in SBS is still being explored, GLP-2 analogs have clearly shown to be effective in improving outcome in SBS. SUMMARY Whereas spontaneous intestinal adaptation improves the nutritional status of SBS patients to a certain extent, GLP-2 analogs can further decrease parenteral support needs through hyperadaptation. There are, however, other promising candidates on the horizon that - alone or in combination - could possibly establish additional disease-modifying effects.

Abstract
Background Patients with short‐bowel syndrome and intestinal failure (SBS‐IF) require parenteral support (PS) and experience various symptoms and comorbidities. This survey assessed the impact of SBS‐IF and PS on patients and their health‐related quality of life (HRQoL). Methods An online survey of adult patients who had a self‐reported clinician diagnosis of SBS‐IF and were receiving PS was conducted in France, Germany, Italy, the UK, and the USA. Patients reported symptoms, comorbidities, and treatment satisfaction; the Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire: Specific Health Problem (WPAI:SHP) and the Home Parenteral Nutrition‐Quality of Life (HPN‐QoL) questionnaire assessed impact on work and HRQoL, respectively. Results Patients (N = 181; aged 52.0 ± 15.1 years; 56.9% women) experienced fatigue (75.1%), anemia (49.7%), and difficulty spending time with family (36.5%) and friends (30.4%). A total work productivity loss of 37.5% was calculated in patients reporting employment (29.3%). Patients typically (64.0%) reported some degree of satisfaction with their PS treatment. Almost two‐thirds (59.7%) reported that their PS was either “not,” “a little,” or “moderately” convenient. The mean HPN‐QoL scores were higher for patients who were satisfied with treatment (n = 116; 17.1 ± 21.0 [median, 16.7; interquartile range, 0.0–31.7]) than for patients who were dissatisfied/neither (n = 65; 1.7 ± 19.7 [median, 0.0; interquartile range, –13.3–13.3]). Conclusions Patients with SBS‐IF who are receiving PS experience burdensome symptoms and comorbidities and report impacts on work productivity and time spent with friends and family. This study can increase awareness of the impacts of SBS‐IF and PS and how treatment satisfaction may influence patients’ health and HRQoL.

Abstract
Purpose Short bowel syndrome (SBS) with intestinal failure (SBS-IF) requires long-term parenteral nutrition (PN). This study investigated the real-world etiologies of SBS, treatment patterns, and PN-related outcomes among adult patients with SBS-IF in Japan. Methods This retrospective, observational cohort study was based on data from April, 2008 to January, 2020 from one of the largest hospital-based claim databases in Japan. Analyzed patients were aged ≥ 16 years, had received continuous PN for ≥ 6 months, and had SBS or undergone SBS-related surgery with a diagnosis of a causative disease. The primary endpoint was PN weaning. Results We analyzed data for 393 patients. The most frequent causes of SBS-IF were ileus (31.8%), Crohn’s disease (20.1%), and mesenteric ischemia (16.0%). Of 144/393 (36.6%) patients who were weaned off their PN, 48 (33.3%) were subsequently restarted on PN. Of 276/393 (70.2%) patients whose PN was initiated in hospital, 156 (56.5%) transitioned to home management. The mean duration of initial PN was 450.4 and 675.5 days for patients who were able or unable to be weaned off PN, respectively. Sepsis (67.4%), catheter-related bloodstream infections (49.1%), and liver disorders (45.0%) were the most reported PN-related complications. Conclusions Most patients with SBS-IF in Japan could not be weaned off PN and suffered life-threatening complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Short bowel syndrome (SBS) is a rare disease that can result in intestinal failure (IF). Short bowel syndrome intestinal failure leads to stunted growth and development and high mortality rates. The primary goal of treatment is to enhance intestinal adaptation and nutrient absorption. Parenteral nutrition (PN) is used to support this process until enteral autonomy can be restored. Some patients experience prolonged partial or complete dependency on PN and face an increased risk of life-threatening catheter-related bloodstream infections and intestinal failure-associated liver disease. This study aimed to provide real-world insights into the patient characteristics and treatment dynamics of PN-dependent children with SBS-IF in Japan. METHODS This retrospective observational study used anonymized information from a large hospital-based medical insurance database to identify pediatric patients who received PN for ≥6 months between April 2008 and January 2020. The primary endpoint was weaning from PN. Secondary endpoints included duration and complications of PN. RESULTS Forty-eight children (mean age, 2.9 years) were eligible for inclusion. The most common causes of SBS-IF were mechanical bowel obstruction, functional bowel disorders, and Hirschsprung's disease. Twenty-two patients (45.8%) were weaned from PN during the study. The mean time to first weaning was 464.2 days and five patients (22.7%) restarted PN. The mean total duration of PN was 692.6 days in weaned patients and 1,170.9 days in unweaned patients. The most frequent complications were sepsis, catheter infections (both 79.2%), and liver dysfunction (64.6%). CONCLUSIONS Pediatric patients with SBS-IF faced difficulties when weaning off PN and rates of life-threatening complications were high.

Abstract
Loss of functional small bowel surface area causes short bowel syndrome (SBS), intestinal failure, and parenteral nutrition (PN) dependence. The gut adaptive response following resection may be difficult to predict, and it may take up to 2 yr to determine which patients will wean from PN. Here, we examined features of gut microbiota and bile acid (BA) metabolism in determining adaptation and ability to wean from PN. Stool and sera were collected from healthy controls and from patients with SBS (n = 52) with ileostomy, jejunostomy, ileocolonic, and jejunocolonic anastomoses fed with PN plus enteral nutrition or who were exclusively enterally fed. We undertook 16S rRNA gene sequencing, BA profiling, and 7α-hydroxy-4-cholesten-3-one (C4) quantitation with LC-MS/MS and serum amino acid analyses. Patients with SBS exhibited altered gut microbiota with reduced gut microbial diversity compared with healthy controls. We observed differences in the microbiomes of patients with SBS with ileostomy versus jejunostomy, jejunocolonic versus ileocolonic anastomoses, and PN dependence compared with those who weaned from PN. Stool and serum BA composition and C4 concentrations were also altered in patients with SBS, reflecting adaptive changes in enterohepatic BA cycling. Stools from patients who were weaned from PN were enriched in secondary BAs including deoxycholic acid and lithocholic aicd. Shifts in gut microbiota and BA metabolites may generate a favorable luminal environment in select patients with SBS, promoting the ability to wean from PN. Proadaptive microbial species and select BA may provide novel targets for patient-specific therapies for SBS.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Loss of intestinal surface area causes short bowel syndrome, intestinal failure, and parenteral nutrition dependence. We analyzed the gut microbiota and bile acid metabolome of a large cohort of short bowel syndrome adult patients with different postsurgical anatomies. We report a novel analysis of the microbiome of patients with ileostomy and jejunostomy. Enrichment of specific microbial and bile acid species may be associated with the ability to wean from parenteral nutrition.

Abstract
Background: Patients with short bowel syndrome (SBS) are at a high risk of cholestasis or cholelithiasis. This study aimed to determine the incidence, risk factors, and clinical consequences of cholelithiasis in adults with SBS over an extended period. Methods: All eligible adults diagnosed with SBS and admitted to a tertiary hospital center between January 2010 and December 2019 were retrospectively identified from the hospital records database. Kaplan–Meier analysis was used to estimate the cumulative incidence of SBS during the 10-year period. For assessment the risk factors for cholelithiasis, we used multivariate Cox proportional hazards model with estimation of hazard ratio (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (95 %CI). Results: This study enrolled 345 eligible patients with SBS. Kaplan–Meier analysis revealed that 72 patients (20.9%) developed cholelithiasis during the 10-year observation period. In multivariate analyses using the Cox proportional hazard model revealed that the remnant jejunum (HR = 2.163; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.156–4.047, p = 0.016) and parenteral nutrition dependence (HR = 1.783; 95% CI: 1.077–2.952, p = 0.025) were independent risk factors for cholelithiasis in adults with SBS. Twenty-eight patients developed symptoms and/or complications in the cholelithiasis group. Proportions of acute cholecystitis or cholangitis and acute pancreatitis were significantly increased in the cholelithiasis group compared with the non-cholelithiasis group (31.9 vs. 7.7%, p < 0.01; and 6.9 vs. 1.1%, p = 0.003, respectively). Conclusion: Because of the adverse clinical consequences of cholelithiasis, adult patients with SBS should be closely monitored, and preventive interventions should be considered.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION teduglutide (TED) is indicated for the treatment of patients with short-bowel syndrome (SBS) who are dependent on parenteral support. CLINICAL CASE we report the case of a 60-year-old woman with SBS treated with TED. She had previously undergone multiple surgical resections due to Crohn's disease. Her remnant bowel included only the duodenum and 50-60 centimeters of jejunum. The patient was dependent on intravenous fluids (2,320 mL/48 h) and had a high stoma output (3,000 mL/day). After four months of TED the jejunostomy output had decreased to 2,200 mL/day with a thicker consistency, and intravenous fluid therapy was reduced to 2,010 mL/48 h. TED was withdrawn due to acute pancreatitis and enlargement of two supraumbilical hernias with high strangulation risk. DISCUSSION pancreatitis has been reported in clinical studies, and determination of amylase and lipase is recommended in all patients receiving TED. In contrast, there are no recommendations for the surveillance of hernia enlargement in patients on TED therapy, but we suggest the need for surveillance based on this case report.

Abstract
Background The glucagon‐like peptide 2 analogue teduglutide is an effective drug for the treatment of short bowel syndrome patients with intestinal failure (SBS‐IF). This intestinotrophic peptide improves intestinal capacity for fluid and nutrient absorption through induction of mucosal growth and reduction of gastrointestinal motility. Clinical trials demonstrated the efficacy of teduglutide in reducing the need for parenteral support (PS). This study describes an SBS‐IF patient population receiving teduglutide therapy in a specialized medical care setting. Method A retrospective analysis was performed using data of patients experiencing nonmalignant SBS‐IF. They were treated with teduglutide in a multidisciplinary SBS‐IF program at a single university medical center between June 2016 and June 2020. Results Thirteen patients under teduglutide treatment were included in the final analysis. Mean small bowel length was 82 ± 31 cm, with 77% of patients having their colon in continuity. Over a median follow‐up of 107 weeks, all patients (13 of 13, 100%) responded to the therapy with a clinically significant reduction of PS volume. Mean PS reduction increased with therapy duration and ranged from −82.5% at week 24 (n = 13) to −100% in patients (n = 5) who were treated for 144 weeks. Enteral autonomy was achieved in 12 of 13 (92%) patients. Teduglutide therapy improved stool frequency and consistency, changed dietary habits, and reduced disease‐associated sleep disruptions. Conclusion Integrating SBS‐IF patients treated with teduglutide in a proactive and tight‐meshed patient care program significantly improves the clinical outcome, leading to an increased proportion of patients reaching enteral autonomy.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Short-bowel syndrome (SBS) is a common cause of chronic intestinal failure and is associated with increased morbidity, mortality, poor quality of life, and an increased burden on healthcare costs. METHODS We used the US Nationwide Inpatient Sample database from 2005 to 2014. We identified adult SBS hospitalizations by using a combination of International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification codes. We studied the demographics of the patients with SBS and analyzed the trends in the number of hospitalizations, in-hospital mortality, and healthcare costs. We also identified the risk factors associated with in-hospital mortality. RESULTS A total of 53,040 SBS hospitalizations were identified. We found that SBS-related hospitalizations increased by 55% between 2005 (N = 4037) and 2014 (N = 6265). During this period, the in-hospital mortality decreased from 40 per 1000 to 29 per 1000 hospitalizations, resulting in an overall reduction of 27%. Higher mortality was noted in SBS patients with sepsis (6.7%), liver dysfunction (6.2%), severe malnutrition (6.0%), and metastatic cancer (5.4%). The overall mean length of stay (LOS) for SBS-related hospitalizations was 14.7 days, with a mean hospital cost of $34,130. We noted a steady decrease in the LOS, whereas the cost of care remained relatively stable. CONCLUSIONS The national burden of SBS-related hospitalizations continues to rise, and the mortality associated with SBS has substantially decreased. Older SBS patients with sepsis, liver dysfunction, severe malnutrition, and metastatic cancer had the highest risk of mortality. Healthcare utilization in SBS remains high. healthcare utilization; hospitalization trend; mortality; research and diseases; short-bowel syndrome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to assess overall and disease-specific health-related quality of life (hrQOL) in patients with pediatric intestinal failure (PIF) and caregivers and elucidate differences from healthy and chronic gastrointestinal (GI) illness cohorts. METHODS Cross-sectional study of patients with PIF and their caregivers managed at a multidisciplinary intestinal rehabilitation program using the PedsQL Generic Core and the Gastrointestinal Symptoms Module to assess generic and disease-specific hrQOL, respectively. These data were compared to established healthy and chronic GI disease controls. RESULTS A total of 53 patients (mean age 6.2 ± 3.9 years) and their caregivers were studied. Patients reported lower generic hrQOL than healthy children (73.0 vs 83.84, P < 0.001), but no difference from patients with chronic GI disease (73.0 vs 77.79). In contrast, PIF caregivers perceived similar generic hrQOL compared to a healthy cohort (78.9 vs 82.70), but higher when compared to the GI disease cohort (78.9 vs 72.74, P < 0.01). Patients with PIF and caregivers reported lower psychosocial health scores than healthy controls. Patients and caregivers reported similar disease-specific hrQOL to a cohort with chronic GI disease but significantly lower disease-specific hrQOL than a healthy cohort (P < 0.001 both groups). CONCLUSIONS Patients with PIF and their caregivers have disparate perceptions of generic hrQOL when compared to healthy and chronic GI disease controls. Both patients and caregivers, however, had significantly lower scores in psychosocial health than healthy controls. In addition, disease-specific hrQOL was substantially lower than healthy controls for PIF patients and caregivers. Further investigation to expand on these findings and identify modifiable variables to improve the psychosocial health score and disease-specific factors would be of high value.

Abstract
Background Patients with short‐bowel syndrome and intestinal failure (SBS‐IF) require parenteral support (PS) and may need long‐term home‐care support. This survey assessed the impact of care provision on adult caregivers of adult patients receiving PS for SBS‐IF. Methods An online, cross‐sectional survey of caregivers of adults with a self‐reported physician diagnosis of SBS‐IF was conducted in France, Germany, Italy, the UK, and USA. Impact on caregivers was evaluated using the 18‐item Caregiver Strain Index (CSI), the Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire: Specific Health Problem (WPAI:SHP), and self‐reporting impact questionnaires. Results Caregivers (N = 121; aged 51 ± 13.7 years; 59% women) provided assistance for a mean of 9.9 ± 12.53 years; 77% were providing care 7 days per week. Patients (51 ± 16.4 years; 56% women) of caregivers were typically family members: spouse/partner (61%), adult son/daughter (19%), or parent (10%). Caregivers reported experiencing some strain (CSI score 4 ± 3.4). Among 71 of 73 employed caregivers, the WPAI:SHP assessment showed that caregivers missed 7% ± 12.7% of work hours in the preceding week and were present but not productive at work 37% ± 23.1% of the time; 28% of caregivers reported a reduced number of working hours because of caregiving. Many caregivers reported limitations in recreational activities (53%), and ≥30% had difficulty spending time with family and friends. Caregivers (87%) also reported worrying about the patient's health. Conclusions Caregivers of adult patients with SBS‐IF experience negative daily personal impacts and loss of productivity arising from their caregiving responsibilities.

Abstract
The small intestine is key in the digestion and absorption of macro and micronutrients. The large intestine is essential for the absorption of water, to allow adequate defecation, and to harbor intestinal microbiota, for which their nutritional role is as important as it is unknown. This article will describe the causes and consequences of malnutrition in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases, the importance of screening and replacement of micronutrient deficits, and the main indications for enteral and parenteral nutrition in these patients. We will also discuss the causes of short bowel syndrome, a complex entity due to anatomical or functional loss of part of the small bowel, which can cause insufficient absorption of liquid, electrolytes, and nutrients and lead to complex management. Finally, we will review the causes, consequences, and management of malnutrition in patients with malignant and benign digestive tumors, including neuroendocrine tumors (present not only in the intestine but also in the pancreas).

Abstract
The vast majority of drugs are not designed or developed for pediatric and infant populations. Peptide drugs, which have become increasingly relevant in the past several decades, are no exception. Unfortunately, nearly all of the 60+ approved peptide drugs are formulated for injection, a particularly unfriendly mode of administration for infants. Although three peptide drugs were recently approved for oral formulations, this major advance in peptide drug delivery is available only for adults. In this review, we consider the current challenges and opportunities for the oral formulation of peptide therapeutics, specifically for infant populations. We describe the strategies that enable oral protein delivery and the potential impact of infant physiology on those strategies. We also detail the limited but encouraging progress towards 1) adapting conventional drug development and delivery approaches to infants and 2) designing novel infant-centric formulations. Together, these efforts underscore the feasibility of oral peptide delivery in infants and provide motivation to increase attention paid to this underserved area of drug delivery and formulation.

Small intestine resection increases oxalate and citrate transporter expression and calcium oxalate crystal formation in rat hyperoxaluric kidneys. Clin Sci (Lond) 2021; 134:2565-2580.

Abstract
Short bowel (SB) increases the risk of kidney stones. However, the underlying mechanism is unclear. Here, we examined how SB affected renal oxalate and citrate handlings for in vivo hyperoxaluric rats and in vitro tubular cells. SB was induced by small intestine resection in male Wistar rats. Sham-operated controls had no resection. After 7 days of recovery, the rats were divided into control, SB (both fed with distilled water), ethylene glycol (EG), and SB+EG (both fed with 0.75% EG for hyperoxaluric induction) groups for 28 days. We collected the plasma, 24 h of urine, kidney, and intestine tissues for analysis. Hypocitraturia was found and persisted up to 28 days for the SB group. Hypocalcemia and high plasma parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels were found in the 28-day SB rats. SB aggravated EG-mediated oxalate nephropathy by fostering hyperoxaluria and hypocitraturia, and increasing the degree of supersaturation and calcium oxalate (CaOx) crystal deposition. These effects were associated with renal up-regulations of the oxalate transporter solute carrier family 26 (Slc26)a6 and citrate transporter sodium-dependent dicarboxylate cotransporter-1 (NaDC-1) but not Slc26a2. The effects of PTH on the SB kidneys were then examined in NRK-52E tubular cells. Recombinant PTH attenuated oxalate-mediated cell injury and up-regulated NaDC-1 via protein kinase A (PKA) activation. PTH, however, showed no additive effects on oxalate-induced Slc26a6 and NaDC-1 up-regulation. Together, these results demonstrated that renal NaDC-1 upregulation-induced hypocitraturia weakened the defense against Slc26a6-mediated hyperoxaluria in SB kidneys for excess CaOx crystal formation. Increased tubular NaDC-1 expression caused by SB relied on PTH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Home parenteral nutrition (HPN) is a life-saving therapy for patients with chronic intestinal failure but can be associated with a degree of psychological distress. The factors associated with the need for antidepressants (ADs) in this cohort have not yet been described. METHODS The study involved prospective data collection from patients attending an HPN clinic at a national intestinal failure referral center. Patients requiring HPN as a result of active malignancy were excluded. Patients were divided in 2 groups according to AD usage; demographic, anthropometric, socioeconomic characteristics, and intravenous supplementation (IVS) regimens were compared between groups. RESULTS A total of 184 patients were recruited between July 2018 and April 2019, with an overall prevalence of AD use of 41.7% (70/168 patients). Daily mean IVS volume was significantly higher among patients taking AD ("AD" group; 2125.48 ± 991.8 ml/day, "no-AD" group; 1828.54 ± 847.0 ml/day, P = .039), with the proportion of patients needing high-volume IVS (≥3000 ml/day) being 3 times higher in the AD group (20.0%(14/70 patients) vs 6.1% (6/98 patients), P = .006). The average energy IVS infusion per day was similar between the groups. CONCLUSION This is the first study to demonstrate that AD use correlates with higher IVS volume rather than energy requirements in HPN patients, suggesting that high IVS volume requirements may be better associated with the patient's disease burden. Early and tailored mental health intervention may be beneficial in those with high IVS volume requirements.

Abstract
Loss of functional small bowel surface area following surgical resection for disorders such as Crohn’s disease, intestinal ischemic injury, radiation enteritis, and in children, necrotizing enterocolitis, atresia, and gastroschisis, may result in short bowel syndrome, with attendant high morbidity, mortality, and health care costs in the United States. Following resection, the remaining small bowel epithelium mounts an adaptive response, resulting in increased crypt cell proliferation, increased villus height, increased crypt depth, and enhanced nutrient and electrolyte absorption. Although these morphologic and functional changes are well described in animal models, the adaptive response in humans is less well understood. Clinically the response is unpredictable and often inadequate. Here we address the hypotheses that human intestinal stem cell populations are expanded and that the stem cell niche is regulated following massive gut resection in short bowel syndrome (SBS). We use intestinal enteroid cultures from patients with SBS to show that the magnitude and phenotype of the adaptive stem cell response are both regulated by stromal niche cells, including intestinal subepithelial myofibroblasts, which are activated by intestinal resection to enhance epithelial stem and proliferative cell responses. Our data suggest that myofibroblast regulation of bone morphogenetic protein signaling pathways plays a role in the gut adaptive response after resection. LGR5+ stem cells are expanded and BMP signaling regulates the stem cell niche in human short bowel syndrome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Quality of life (QOL) of home parenteral nutrition (HPN) patients is a critical issue for functioning and survival. This study evaluates the roles of sexual function (SF), self-efficacy (SE), and the use of social media (USM) in the QOL of HPN patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study model investigates the independent variables USM and SF and the dependent variable QOL, and SE is a mediator variable between SF and USM. RESULTS We included 203 participants with HPN who completed self-administered, validated questionnaires for QOL, SF, SE, and USM. Statistical analysis included a t-test, Sobel test, bootstrapping method, and Pearson correlations between variances. The mean HPN duration was 10.5 ± 8 years. Results show a significant correlation between QOL scores and SF (P = .001). USM was positively correlated with SE (P = .001). SE as a mediator between USM and SF was supported by significant results in the Sobel test. Patients with a stoma were significantly less sexually active and had lower SE ratings than those without a stoma. CONCLUSION Physical changes that affect SE and boost social relationships by allowing emotional support through social networks are important factors for QOL improvement. These findings may guide health professionals in the management of HPN patients.

Abstract
While medical nutrition therapy is an essential part of the care for critically ill patients, uncertainty exists about the right form, dosage, timing and route in relation to the phases of critical illness. As enteral nutrition (EN) is often withheld or interrupted during the intensive care unit (ICU) stay, combined EN and parenteral nutrition (PN) may represent an effective and safe option to achieve energy and protein goals as recommended by international guidelines. We hypothesise that critically ill patients at high nutritional risk may benefit from such a combined approach during their stay on the ICU. Therefore, we aim to test if an early combination of EN and high-protein PN (EN+PN) is effective in reaching energy and protein goals in patients at high nutritional risk, while avoiding overfeeding. This approach will be tested in the here-presented EFFORTcombo trial. Nutritionally high-risk ICU patients will be randomised to either high (≥2·2 g/kg per d) or low protein (≤1·2 g/kg per d). In the high protein group, the patients will receive EN+PN; in the low protein group, patients will be given EN alone. EN will be started in accordance with international guidelines in both groups. Efforts will be made to reach nutrition goals within 48-96 h. The efficacy of the proposed nutritional strategy will be tested as an innovative approach by functional outcomes at ICU and hospital discharge, as well as at a 6-month follow-up.

Abstract
IMPACT STATEMENT Short bowel syndrome is associated with significant comorbidities and mortality. This study is important as unlike current systems, it provides a validated piglet model which mirrors anatomical, histological, and serological characteristics observed in human SBS. This model can be used to advance knowledge into mechanistic pathways and therapeutic modalities to improve outcomes for SBS patients. This study is novel in that in addition to significant reduction in the remnant bowel and noted liver disease, we also developed a method to emulate ileocecal valve resection and described gut adaptive responses which has important clinical implications in humans.

Abstract
Pediatric intestinal failure occurs when gut function is insufficient to meet the nutrient and hydration needs of the growing child. The commonest cause is short bowel syndrome with maldigestion and malabsorption following massive bowel loss. The remnant bowel adapts during the process of intestinal rehabilitation. Management promotes the achievement of enteral autonomy while mitigating the risk of comorbid disease. The future of care is likely to see expansion of pharmacologic methods for augmenting bowel adaptation, tissue engineering techniques enabling immune suppression-free autologous bowel transplant, and the development of electronic health record tools for efficient, collaborative study and care improvement.

Continent Ileostomy as an Alternative to End Ileostomy. Gastroenterol Res Pract 2020; 2020:9740980.

Abstract
Continent ileostomy (CI) was once a prevalent surgical technique for patients who required total proctocolectomy but then gave way to ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) after 1980. Although IPAA has been the gold standard procedure preferred by most patients when total proctocolectomy is required, due to its imitation of physiological function of rectum and preserved function of anus, various complications have been observed with a relatively high rate of morbidity that could affect pouch longevity. Once serious complications such as pelvic abscesses and/or fistula occur, the pouch often needs to be removed. In addition, for some patients with a shortened small intestine or foreshortened mesentery, it is impossible for the ileal pouch to reach the pelvic floor, thus making the creation of an IPAA difficult. Previously, most of these patients would be referred for an end ileostomy, with an associated poor quality of life. In this circumstance, we propose that CI may deserve a reappraisal and serve as an alternative. In this article, we review the indications, contraindications, technique evolution, and outcomes of CI.

Abstract
Background Patients receiving home parenteral nutrition (HPN) have a reduced quality of life (QoL), but it is unknown if this is associated with psychiatric comorbidities such as anxiety or depression. Aim The aim of this study was to assess anxiety, depression and QoL in patients transitioning from hospital to HPN. Methods We conducted a prospective study in adult patients receiving parenteral nutrition (PN) during transition from hospital to home. We assessed anxiety and depression (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale; HADS), health-related quality of life (HRQoL; SF-36) and health status (EQ-5D) before discharge and again later at one and three months after HPN was started. Results Of the 29 patients, 15 had an underlying malignancy. At baseline, 93% of patients with malignancy had anxiety or depression (HADS A and/or HADS D >7) or both, while of the patients without malignancy, 60% had anxiety, and 40% had depression. Questionnaires were completed by 21 patients at one month and by 15 at three months. Anxiety and depression scores decreased significantly after one month of HPN (mean difference [MD] anxiety: 4.3; 95% CI, 1.2–7.5, P = 0.004; MD depression: 4.0; 95% CI, 1.5–6.5, P = 0.001), and the decrease persisted at three months (MD anxiety: 35; 95% CI, 0.35–6.6, P = 0.02; MD depression: 2.5; 95% CI, 0.06–5.0, P = 0.04). Overall, patients reported an improvement in HRQoL (SF-36) after one month of HPN, and this improvement was maintained at three months in those patients who survived. Conclusion Home parenteral nutrition is associated with improvements in anxiety, depression and HRQoL at one month and three months after discharge from hospital. The improvements in Qol, anxiety and depression seem greater in patients with underlying malignancy.

Abstract
Purpose of Review Short gut syndrome is life-altering and life-threatening disease resulting most often from massive small bowel resection. Recent advances in understanding of the perturbed physiology in these patients have translated into improved care and outcomes. This paper seeks to review the advances of care in SBS patients. Recent Findings Anatomic considerations still predominate the early care of SBS patients, including aggressive preservation of bowel and documentation of remnant bowel length and quality. Intestinal adaptation is the process by which remnant bowel changes to fit the physiologic needs of the patient. Grossly, the bowel dilates and elongates to increase intestinal weight and protein content. Architectural changes are noted, such as villus lengthening and deepening of crypts. In addition, gene expression changes occur that function to maximize nutrient uptake and fluid preservation. Management is aimed at understanding these physiologic changes and augmenting them whenever possible in an effort to gain enteral autonomy. Complication mitigation is key, including avoidance of catheter complications, bloodstream infections, cholestasis, and nutrient deficiencies. Summary Multidisciplinary teams working together towards intestinal rehabilitation have shown improved outcomes. Today's practioner needs a current understanding of the ever-evolving care of these patients in order to promote enteral autonomy, recognize complications, and counsel patients and families appropriately.
