Abstract
Short bowel syndrome (SBS) is the leading cause of intestinal failure (IF) in children. The mainstay of treatment for IF is parenteral nutrition (PN). The aim of this position paper is to review the available evidence on managing SBS and to provide practical guidance to clinicians dealing with this condition. All members of the Nutrition Committee of the European Society for Paediatric Gastroenterology Hepatology and Nutrition (ESPGHAN) contributed to this position paper. Some renowned experts in the field joined the team to guide with their experience. A systematic literature search was performed from 2005 to May 2021 using PubMed, MEDLINE, and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews. In the absence of evidence, recommendations reflect the expert opinion of the authors. Literature on SBS mainly consists of retrospective single-center experience, thus most of the current papers and recommendations are based on expert opinion. All recommendations were voted on by the expert panel and reached >90% agreement. The first part of this position paper focuses on the physiological mechanism of intestinal adaptation after surgical resection. It subsequently provides some clinical practice recommendations for the primary management of children with SBS from surgical resection until discharged home on PN.

Campylobacter vaccination reduces diarrheal disease and infant growth stunting among rhesus macaques. Nat Commun 2023; 14:3806.

Abstract
Campylobacter-associated enteric disease is estimated to be responsible for more than 160 million cases of gastroenteritis each year and is linked to growth stunting of infants living under conditions of poor sanitation and hygiene. Here, we examine naturally occurring Campylobacter-associated diarrhea among rhesus macaques as a model to determine if vaccination could reduce severe diarrheal disease and infant growth stunting. Compared to unvaccinated controls, there are no Campylobacter diarrhea-associated deaths observed among vaccinated infant macaques and all-cause diarrhea-associated infant mortality is decreased by 76% (P = 0.03). By 9 months of age, there is a 1.3 cm increase in dorsal length that equaled a significant 1.28 LAZ (Length-for-Age Z score) improvement in linear growth among vaccinated infants compared to their unvaccinated counterparts (P = 0.001). In this work, we show that Campylobacter vaccination not only reduces diarrheal disease but also potentially serves as an effective intervention that improves infant growth trajectories.

Abstract
Pediatric intestinal failure (IF) is the reduction in gut function to below the minimum necessary for the absorption of macronutrients and/or water and electrolytes, such that intravenous supplementation is required to maintain health and/or growth. The overall goal in treating IF is to achieve intestinal adaptation; however, the underlying mechanisms have not been fully understood. In this study, by performing single-cell RNA sequencing in pediatric IF patients, we found that decreased Kruppel-Like Factor 4 (KLF4) may serve as the hub gene responsible for the functional deficit in mature enterocytes in IF patients, leading to the downregulation of solute carrier (SLC) family transporters (e.g., SLC7A9) and, consequently, nutrient malabsorption. We also found that inducible KLF4 was highly sensitive to the loss of certain enteral nutrients: in a rodent model of total parenteral nutrition mimicking the deprivation of enteral nutrition, the expression of KLF4 dramatically decreased only at the tip of the villus and not at the bottom of crypts. By using IF patient-derived intestinal organoids and Caco-2 cells as in vitro models, we demonstrated that the supplementation of decanoic acid (DA) could significantly induce the expression of KLF4 along with SLC6A4 and SLC7A9, suggesting that DA may function as a potential therapeutic strategy to promote cell maturation and functional improvement. In summary, this study provides new insights into the mechanism of intestinal adaptation depending on KLF4, and proposed potential strategies for nutritional management using DA.

Malnutrition with Low Muscle Mass Is Common after Weaning off Home Parenteral Nutrition for Chronic Intestinal Failure. Nutrients 2023; 15:nu15020338. [PMID: 36678209 PMCID: PMC9860702 DOI: 10.3390/nu15020338] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2022] [Revised: 01/07/2023] [Accepted: 01/09/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2023] Open
Abstract
The differences in outcomes after weaning off intravenous support (IVS) for chronic intestinal failure (IF) are unclear. Adult IF patients who are weaned off IVS at a tertiary care center (June 2019−2022) were included in this study, and nutritional and functional markers were assessed before, during, and after weaning. Short bowel syndrome (SBS) was present in 77/98 of the IF patients, with different outcomes according to the final anatomy. The body weight and the BMI increased during IVS in those with a jejunocolonic (JC) anastomosis (p < 0.001), but weight loss was significant during follow-up (p < 0.001). Malnutrition was present in >60%, with a reduced muscle mass, which was found using bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), in >50% of SBS-JC patients. Although reduced hand-grip strength and sarcopenia were less common, the muscle quality, or phase angle (BIA), decreased during follow-up, also correlating with serum albumin and muscle mass (p ≤ 0.01). The muscle quality and albumin were low in the patients restarting IVS, which was only the case with ≤60 cm of small bowel. Closer follow-up and earlier treatment with teduglutide (TED) should be considered in these patients, as none of the TED-treated patients were malnourished or sarcopenic. Studies on the potential benefits of nutritional and physical interventions for low muscle mass and associations with outcomes are needed in chronic IF patients.

Abstract
Environmental enteric dysfunction is associated with malnutrition as well as infant growth stunting and has been classically defined by villous blunting, decreased crypt-to-villus ratio, and inflammation in the small intestine. Here, we characterized environmental enteric dysfunction among infant rhesus macaques that are naturally exposed to enteric pathogens commonly linked to human growth stunting. Remarkably, despite villous atrophy and histological abnormalities observed in the small intestine, poor growth trajectories and low serum tryptophan levels were correlated with increased histopathology in the large intestine. This work provides insight into the mechanisms underlying this disease and indicates that the large intestine may be an important target for therapeutic intervention. Environmental enteric dysfunction (EED), a subclinical disorder of intestinal function, is associated with malnutrition, infant growth stunting and pathologies in the small intestine. Here the authors report that infant rhesus macaques that are naturally exposed to enteric pathogens commonly linked to human growth stunting present with EED and growth faltering that associates with large intestine pathologies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Patients with intestinal failure often need long-term home parenteral support (PS). We aimed to determine how the underlying diagnosis, complications and survival had changed over the last 36 years in the UK's largest IF centre. METHODS 978 adult home PS patient records were analysed from January 1979 until October 2016. The age, sex, underlying aetiology, complications and survival was compared over 5-year periods. RESULTS Pre-1990 to 2011-2016, numbers increased from 29 to 451, the mean age of patients increased from 31 ± 16.5 to 52 ± 17.6 years. The percentage of patients with IF due to surgical complications increased (3.4%-28.8%, p < 0.001)), while those with inflammatory bowel disease decreased (37.9%-22.6%, p < 0.001). Complication of home PS reduced: catheter related blood stream infections (CRBSI) 71.4% to 42,2%, CVC thrombosis 34.5%-5.3%. Intestinal failure associated liver disease (IFLAD) 10.3%-1.8%. Patients with dysmotility, scleroderma and a congenital aetiology had the highest incidence of CRBSI and CVC Thrombosis. Overall survival was greater pre-1995 [HR 0.2-0.4 (p = 0.02)] most likely associated with an increase in mean age. Survival for patients without malignancy was 90%, 66%, 55%, 45%, 33% and 25% at 1,5, 10, 15, 20 and 30 years respectively. Multivariate analysis demonstrated a relationship between survival and age of starting home PS; type of home PS; presence or absence of the colon in continuity; and underlying aetiology. CONCLUSION Demand for home PS is increasing in particular for advanced malignancy, post-surgical complications and older more co-morbid patients. Complications of home PS are reducing over the last 30 years and 10-year survival for non-malignant aetiologies improving. Survival and changes in aetiology in intestinal failure.

Abstract
Pediatric intestinal failure (PIF) is a relatively rare disease entity which requires focused interdisciplinary care and specialized nutrition management. There has long been a lack of consensus in the definition of key terms related to PIF due to its rarity and plethora of small studies rather than large trials. As such, the American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition (ASPEN) Pediatric Intestinal Failure Section, composed of clinicians from a variety of disciplines caring for children with intestinal failure, is uniquely poised to provide insight into this definition void. This document is the product of an effort by the Section to create evidence-based consensus definitions, with the goal of allowing for appropriate comparisons between clinical studies and measurement of longterm patient outcomes.

Abstract
We studied a sample of 146 Polish, exclusively breastfeeding mothers and their healthy born on time infants to explore the effect of perinatal psychosocial stress on breast milk composition. Maternal perinatal stress was assessed using Recent Life Changes Questionnaire summarizing stressful events from the previous six months. Stress reactivity was determined by administering the cold pressor test and measuring cortisol in saliva samples taken during the test. Breast milk sample was taken to measure energy, protein, fat, lactose, and fatty acid content. Analyses revealed that stress reactivity was positively associated with milk fat and long-chain unsaturated fatty acids and negatively associated with milk lactose. Perinatal psychosocial stress negatively affected energy density, fat as well as medium-chain and long-chain saturated fatty acids in milk. These results, together with previous studies, advocate monitoring maternal psychological status during the peripartum to promote breastfeeding and healthy infant nutrition.

Abstract
Intestinal failure is a debilitating, complex disorder associated with loss of portions of intestine or loss of intestinal function. Short bowel syndrome is the most common form of intestinal failure and results in inability to maintain nutritional, fluid, and electrolyte status while consuming a regular diet. Nutrition interventions to treat short bowel syndrome include enteral and parenteral nutrition, intestinal rehabilitation techniques to enhance absorptive capacity of remnant bowel, and surgical reconstruction designed to provide more surface area for absorption. These therapies are interrelated services to restore nutritional status through the safest most effective therapy consistent with patient lifestyle and wishes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE(S) To define the evolving role of integrative surgical management including transplantation for patients gut failure (GF). METHODS A total of 500 patients with total parenteral nutrition-dependent catastrophic and chronic GF were referred for surgical intervention particularly transplantation and comprised the study population. With a mean age of 45 ± 17 years, 477 (95%) were adults and 23 (5%) were children. Management strategy was guided by clinical status, splanchnic organ functions, anatomy of residual gut, and cause of GF. Surgery was performed in 462 (92%) patients and 38 (8%) continued medical treatment. Definitive autologous gut reconstruction (AGR) was achievable in 378 (82%), primary transplant in 42 (9%), and AGR followed by transplant in 42 (9%). The 84 transplant recipients received 94 allografts; 67 (71%) liver-free and 27 (29%) liver-contained. The 420 AGR patients received a total of 790 reconstructive and remodeling procedures including primary reconstruction, interposition alimentary-conduits, intestinal/colonic lengthening, and reductive/decompressive surgery. Glucagon-like peptide-2 was used in 17 patients. RESULTS Overall patient survival was 86% at 1-year and 68% at 5-years with restored nutritional autonomy (RNA) in 63% and 78%, respectively. Surgery achieved a 5-year survival of 70% with 82% RNA. AGR achieved better long-term survival and transplantation better (P = 0.03) re-established nutritional autonomy. Both AGR and transplant were cost effective and quality of life better improved after AGR. A model to predict RNA after AGR was developed computing anatomy of reconstructed gut, total parenteral nutrition requirements, cause of GF, and serum bilirubin. CONCLUSIONS Surgical integration is an effective management strategy for GF. Further progress is foreseen with the herein-described novel techniques and established RNA predictive model.

Abstract
Intestinal failure is defined as a critical reduction of the gut mass or function, below the minimum needed to absorb nutrients and fluids. The ultimate goal in intestinal failure is to promote bowel adaptation and reach enteral autonomy while a healthy growth and development is maintained. The condition is heterogeneous and complex. Therefore, recommendations for the type and duration of parenteral, enteral, and oral nutrition are variable, with the child's age as an additional key factor. The aim of this review is to provide an overview of nutritional feeding strategies in this heterogeneous population. Different perspectives on nutritional management, nutrition and adaptation, and microbiome and nutrition will be discussed.

Abstract
In children, short-bowel syndrome (SBS) accounts for two-thirds of the cases of intestinal failure, and motility disorders and congenital mucosal diarrheal disorders account for the remaining one-third. Children with SBS are supported primarily by parenteral nutrition, which is the single-most important therapy contributing to their improved prognosis. More than 90% of children with SBS who are cared for at experienced intestinal rehabilitation programs survive, and roughly 60% to 70% undergo intestinal adaptation and achieve full enteral autonomy. This article focuses on the predictors of pediatric intestinal adaptation and discusses the pathophysiology and clinical management of children with SBS.

Abstract
A systematic bibliographic research concerning patients operated on for SBS was performed: inclusion criteria were adult age, reconnection surgery and SBS < 100 cm. Autologous gastrointestinal reconstruction represented an exclusion criteria. The outcomes of interest were the rate of total parenteral nutrition (TPN) independence and the length of follow-up (minimum 1 year) after surgery. We reviewed our experience from 2003 to 2013 with minimum 1-year follow-up, dealing with reconnection surgery in 13 adults affected by < 100 cm SBS after massive small bowel resection: autologous gastrointestinal reconstruction was not feasible. Three (out of 5168 screened papers) non randomized controlled trials with 116 adult patients were analysed showing weaning from TPN (40%, 50% and 90% respectively) after reconnection surgery without autologous gastrointestinal reconstruction. Among our 13 adults, mean age was 54.1 years (53.8 % ASA III): 69.2 % had a high stomal output (> 500 cc/day) and TPN dependence was 100%. We performed a jejuno-colonic anastomosis (SBS type II) in 53.8%, in 46.1% of cases without ileo-cecal valve, leaving a mean residual small bowel length of 75.7 cm. In-hospital mortality was 0%. After a minimum period of 1 year of intestinal rehabilitation, all our patients (100%) went back to oral intake and 69.2% were off TPN (9 patients). No one was listed for transplantation. A residual small bowel length of minimum 75 cm, even if reconnected to part of the colon, seems able to produce a TPN independence without autologous gastrointestinal reconstruction after a minimum period of 1 year of intestinal rehabilitation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The main cause of intestinal failure is short bowel syndrome (SBS). The management goal for children with SBS is to promote intestinal adaptation while preserving growth and development with the use of parenteral nutrition (PN). OBJECTIVES This study evaluated the intestinal absorption rate in children with SBS, focusing on the role of the remnant colon. In addition, the relation between intestinal absorption rate, citrulline concentration, and small bowel length was studied. METHODS Thirty-two children with SBS on PN were included. They were divided into 3 groups according to the European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (ESPEN) anatomical classification system: type 1 SBS (n = 9), type 2 (n = 13), and type 3 (n = 10). Intestinal absorption rate was assessed by a stool balance analysis of a 3-d collection of stools. Plasma citrulline concentrations were measured and the level of PN dependency was calculated. RESULTS The total energy absorption rate did not differ significantly between the 3 groups: 68% (61-79% ) for type 1, 60% (40-77%) for type 2, and 60% (40-77%) for type 3 ( P = 0.45). Children with type 2 or 3 SBS had significantly shorter small bowel length than children with type 1: 28 cm (19-36 cm) and 16 cm (2-29 cm), respectively, compared with 60 cm (45-78 cm) ( P = 0.04). Plasma citrulline concentrations were lower in type 3 SBS but not significantly different: 15 µmol/L (11-25 µmol/L) in type 1, 14 µmol/L (7-21 µmol/L) in type 2 , and 9 µmol/L (6-14 µmol/L) in type 3 ( P = 0.141). A multivariate analysis confirmed the role of the remnant colon in providing additional energy absorption. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated the importance of the colon as a salvage organ in children with SBS. Plasma citrulline concentrations should be interpreted according to the type of SBS. Efforts should focus on conservative surgery, early re-establishment of a colon in continuity, and preserving the intestinal microbiota.

Abstract
Short bowel syndrome (SBS) is a dramatic clinical condition in both children and adults; the residual bowel length is not sufficient to avoid intestinal failure, with subsequent malnutrition and growth retardation, and intravenous support is required to provide the nutrients normally coming from the intestine. Apart from the primary disease, the medical status can be worsened by complications of intestinal failure: if there are irreversible, the prognosis is poor unless a successful intestinal rehabilitation is achieved. Areas covered: The rescue of the remnant small bowel requires a multidisciplinary expertise to achieve digestive autonomy. The use of intestinal trophic factors has shown encouraging results in improving the intestinal adaptation process. Whenever the residual bowel length is inadequate, in a well-selected population weaning parenteral nutrition (PN) off could be attempted by surgery through lengthening procedures. A further subset of patients, with total and irreversible intestinal failure and severe complications on PN, may have an indication to intestinal transplantation. This procedure is still affected by poor long-term results. Expert commentary: Novel approaches developed through a multidisciplinary team work, such as manipulation of microbiota or tissue bioengineering, should be added to current therapies to treat successfully SBS.

Abstract
Short bowel syndrome (SBS) is due to a massive loss of small bowel: the reduction of gut function is below the minimum necessary to maintain health (in adults) and growth (in children) so intravenous supplementation is required. Parenteral nutrition represents the milestone of treatment and surgical attempts should be limited only when the residual bowel is sufficient to increase absorption, reducing diarrhea and slowing the transit time of nutrients, water and electrolytes. The surgical techniques lengthen the bowel (tapering it) or reverse a segment of it: developed in children, nowadays are popular also among adults. The issue is mainly represented by the residual length of the small bowel where ileum has shown increased adaptive function than jejunum, but colon should be considered because of its importance in the digestive process. These concepts have been translated also in intestinal transplantation, where a colonic graft is nowadays widely used and the terminal ileum is the selected segment for a living-related donation. The whole replacement by a bowel or multivisceral transplant is still affected by poor long term outcome and must be reserved to a select population of SBS patients, affected by intestinal failure associated with irreversible complications of parenteral nutrition.

Abstract
The quantity and quality of dietary lipids in infant formulae have a significant impact on health outcomes, especially when fat storing and/or absorption are limited (e.g., preterm birth and short bowel disease) or when fat byproducts may help to prevent some pathologies (e.g., atopy). The lipid composition of infant formulae varies according to the different fat sources used, and the potential biological effects are related to the variety of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids. For example, since lipids are the main source of energy when the normal absorptive capacity of the digestive tract is compromised, medium-chain saturated fatty acids might cover this requirement. Instead, ruminant-derived trans fatty acids and metabolites of n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids with their anti-inflammatory properties can modulate immune function. Furthermore, dietary fats may influence the nutrient profile of formulae, improving the acceptance of these products and the compliance with dietary schedules.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) has been described in obese patients. The aim of this study was to prospectively evaluate the prevalence and consequences of SIBO in obese patients before and after bariatric surgery. PATIENTS AND METHODS From October 2001 to July 2009, in obese patients referred for bariatric surgery (BMI >40 kg/m2 or >35 in association with comorbidities), a glucose hydrogen (H2) breath test (BT) was performed before and/or after either Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGBP) or adjustable gastric banding (AGB) to assess the presence of SIBO. Weight loss and serum vitamin concentrations were measured after bariatric surgery while a multivitamin supplement was systematically given. RESULTS Three hundred seventy-eight (mean ± SD) patients who performed a BT before and/or after surgery were included: before surgery, BT was positive in 15.4 % (55/357). After surgery, BT was positive in 10 % (2/20) of AGB and 40 % (26/65) of RYGBP (p < 0.001 compared to preoperative situation). After RYGBP, patients with positive BT had similar vitamin levels, a lower caloric intake (983 ± 337 vs. 1271 ± 404 kcal/day, p = 0.014) but a significant lower weight loss (29.7 ± 5.6 vs. 37.7 ± 12.9 kg, p = 0.002) and lower percent of total weight loss (25.6 ± 6.0 vs. 29.2 ± 6.9 %, p = 0.044). CONCLUSION In this study, SIBO is present in 15 % of obese patients before bariatric surgery. This prevalence does not increase after AGB while it rises up to 40 % of patients after RYGBP and it is associated with lower weight loss.

Abstract
Short- and medium-chain fatty acids (SCFAs and MCFAs), independently of their cellular signaling functions, are important substrates of the energy metabolism and anabolic processes in mammals. SCFAs are mostly generated by colonic bacteria and are predominantly metabolized by enterocytes and liver, whereas MCFAs arise mostly from dietary triglycerides, among them milk and dairy products. A common feature of SCFAs and MCFAs is their carnitine-independent uptake and intramitochondrial activation to acyl-CoA thioesters. Contrary to long-chain fatty acids, the cellular metabolism of SCFAs and MCFAs depends to a lesser extent on fatty acid-binding proteins. SCFAs and MCFAs modulate tissue metabolism of carbohydrates and lipids, as manifested by a mostly inhibitory effect on glycolysis and stimulation of lipogenesis or gluconeogenesis. SCFAs and MCFAs exert no or only weak protonophoric and lytic activities in mitochondria and do not significantly impair the electron transport in the respiratory chain. SCFAs and MCFAs modulate mitochondrial energy production by two mechanisms: they provide reducing equivalents to the respiratory chain and partly decrease efficacy of oxidative ATP synthesis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Zenpep (APT-1008) is a pancreatic enzyme product for the treatment of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) associated with cystic fibrosis (CF). METHODS Zenpep and Kreon, both containing 25,000 lipase units, were compared in a randomised, double-blind, crossover, non-inferiority study for CF-associated EPI in patients aged ≥12years. Patients on a standardised diet and stabilised treatment were randomised to two treatment sequences: Zenpep/Kreon or Kreon/Zenpep. The primary efficacy endpoint was the coefficient of fat absorption over 72h (CFA-72h). RESULTS 96 patients (mean age 19.2years, 60.4% males) were randomised with 83 completers of both sequences comprising the efficacy population. Zenpep demonstrated non-inferiority and equivalence to Kreon in fat absorption (LS mean CFA-72h: Zenpep, 84.1% [SE 1.1] vs. Kreon, 85.3% [SE 1.1]; p=0.297). Safety and tolerability were similar. CONCLUSIONS Zenpep is comparable with Kreon in efficacy and safety for the treatment of adolescents and adults with CF-associated EPI. NCT01641393.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intestinal failure-associated liver disease (IFALD) is the most serious consequence of long-term parenteral nutrition for intestinal failure. Little is known about the pathogenesis of IFALD, although many of the risk factors are also linked to endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS). We propose that ERS may have a role in the development of IFALD. METHODS Archived liver tissue from patients with early and late IFALD, as well as from normal controls, was used for RNA extraction and immunohistochemistry to demonstrate the presence of ERS markers. RESULTS Mean relative RNA levels of glucose regulatory protein 78 in normal liver (n = 3), early IFALD (n = 15), and late IFALD (n = 5) were 0.5, 37.86, and 212.11, respectively. Mean relative expression of ERDj4 (ER DnaJ homologue 4, a downstream ERS effector) in normal liver, early IFALD, and late IFALD was 5.51, 216.68, and 213.22, respectively. The degree of splicing of X-box binding protein 1 in IFALD compared with normal liver was significantly higher (mean, 0.0779 normal, 0.102 early IFALD, 0.2063 late IFALD). CONCLUSIONS This is the first description of ERS in IFALD. This information may open up new therapeutic possibilities in the form of chemical chaperones known to ameliorate ERS.

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 This review will highlight recent advances in the care of infants with Intestinal Failure, focusing on the benefits of a multi-disciplinary team and the types of nutrition used. METHODS Recent best "practices" from the literature are described, including strategies for promoting intestinal adaptation, the use of lipid sparing Parenteral Nutrition (PN) and the effects of the associated high glucose infusion rates. Special emphasis will be placed on lipid minimization and specialized lipid emulsions including fish oil, and blended lipid sources such as SMOF. Enteral nutritional therapy will be reviewed, including the rationale for the use of expressed breast milk or elemental formula in preference to partial milk hydrolysates. The utility and indications for the use of formula additives and the use of nutritional supplements and the timing and rate of advancement of feeds, and the optimal strategy for preserving oral feeding skills will be reviewed. Treatments to optimize intestinal adaptation such as the use of dietary supplements including vegetable oils, fat emulsions and medium-chain triglycerides will be discussed. Feeding strategies will be described. The rationale and effects of using rotating antibiotics to treat small intestinal bacterial overgrowth will be reviewed. RESULTS The long-term consequences and complications of the different types of nutritional therapy will be examined, with a focus on growth and development. The potential and described effects of established and novel lipid therapies on neurological development will be reviewed in detail. CONCLUSION Areas of interest for potential future research will be explored for all aspects of nutritional therapy with a discussion of future strategies which may enhance the intestinal adaptive process, and thus aid our goal of making the adaptation process occur more quickly and shortening the time of PN.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Short bowel syndrome (SBS) is an increasingly common condition encountered across neonatal intensive care units. Improvements in parenteral nutrition (PN), neonatal intensive care and surgical techniques, in addition to an improved understanding of SBS pathophysiology, have contributed in equal parts to the survival of this fragile subset of infants. Prevention of intestinal failure associated liver disease (IFALD) and promotion of intestinal adaptation are primary goals of all involved in the care of these patients. While enteral nutritional and pharmacological strategies are necessary to achieve these goals, there remains great variability in the application of therapeutic strategies in units that are not necessarily evidence-based. MATERIALS AND METHODS A search of major English language medical databases (SCOPUS, Index Medicus, Medline, and the Cochrane database) was conducted for the key words short bowel syndrome, medical management, nutritional management and intestinal adaptation. All pharmacological and nutritional agents encountered in the literature search were classified based on their effects on absorptive capacity, intestinal adaptation and bowel motility that are the three major strategies employed in the management of SBS. The Oxford Center for Evidence-Based Medicine (CEBM) classification for levels of evidence was used to develop grades of clinical recommendation for each variable studied. RESULTS We reviewed various medications used and nutritional strategies included soluble fiber, enteral fat, glutamine, probiotics and sodium supplementation. Most interventions have scientific rationale but little evidence to support their role in the management of infant SBS. While some of these agents symptomatically improve diarrhea, they can adversely influence pancreatico-biliary function or actually impair intestinal adaptation. Surgical anatomy and liver function are two important variables that should determine the selection of pharmacological and nutritional interventions. DISCUSSION There is a paucity of research investigating optimal clinical practice in infant SBS and the little evidence available is consistently of lower quality, resulting in a wide variation of clinical practices among NICUs. Prospective trials should be encouraged to bridge the evidence gap between research and clinical practice to promote further progress in the field.

Abstract
Lactose malabsorption is associated with rapid production of high levels of osmotic compounds, such as organic acids and SCFA in the colon, suspected to contribute to the onset of lactose intolerance. Adult rats are lactase deficient and the present study was conducted to evaluatein vivothe metabolic consequences of acute lactose ingestion, including host–microbiota interactions. Rats received diets of 25 % sucrose (S25 control group) or 25 % lactose (L25 experimental group). SCFA and lactic acid were quantified in intestinal contents and portal blood. Expression of SCFA transporter genes was quantified in the colonic mucosa. Carbohydrate oxidation (Cox) and lipid oxidation (Lox) were computed by indirect calorimetry. Measurements were performed over a maximum of 13 h. Time, diet and time × diet variables had significant effects on SCFA concentration in the caecum (P< 0·001,P= 0·004 andP= 0·007, respectively) and the portal blood (P< 0·001,P= 0·04 andP< 0·001, respectively). Concomitantly, expression of sodium monocarboxylate significantly increased in the colonic mucosa of the L25 group (P= 0·003 att= 6 h andP< 0·05 att= 8 h). During 5 h after the meal, the L25 group's changes in metabolic parameters (Cox, Lox) were significantly lower than those of the S25 group (P= 0·02). However, after 5 h, L25 Cox became greater than S25 (P= 0·004). Thus, enhanced production and absorption of SCFA support the metabolic changes observed in calorimetry. These results underline the consequences of acute lactose malabsorption and measured compensations occurring in the host's metabolism, presumably through the microbiota fermentations and microbiota–host interactions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Management of short bowel syndrome (SBS) aims to achieve intestinal autonomy to prevent fluid, electrolyte, and nutrient deficiencies and maintain adequate development. Remnant intestinal adaptation is required to obtain autonomy. In the newborn pig, colostrum has been shown to support intestinal development and hence adaptive processes. AIM The efficacy of bovine colostrum to improve intestinal function in children with SBS was evaluated by metabolic balance studies. MATERIALS AND METHODS Nine children with SBS were included in a randomized, double-blind, crossover study. Twenty percent of enteral fluid intake was replaced with bovine colostrum or a mixed milk diet for 4 weeks, separated by a 4-week washout period. Intestinal absorption of energy and wet weight was used to assess intestinal function and the efficacy of colostrum. RESULTS Colostrum did not improve energy or wet weight absorption compared with the mixed milk diet (P = 1.00 and P = .93, respectively). Growth as measured by weight and knemometry did not differ between diets (P = .93 and P = .28). In these patients, <150% enteral energy absorption of basal metabolic rate and 50% enteral fluid absorption of basal fluid requirement suggested intestinal failure and a need for parenteral nutrition (PN). CONCLUSION Inclusion of bovine colostrum to the diet did not improve intestinal function. Metabolic nutrient and wet weight balance studies successfully assessed intestinal function, and this method may distinguish between intestinal insufficiency (non-PN-dependent) and intestinal failure (PN-dependent) patients.

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

Abstract
Short bowel syndrome (SBS) refers to the sum of the functional alterations that are the result of a critical reduction in the length of the intestine, which in the absence of adequate treatment, presents as chronic diarrhea, chronic dehydration, malnutrition, weight loss, nutriment and electrolyte deficiency, along with a failure to grow that is present with greater frequency during the neonatal period. The aim was to carry out a review of the literature encompassing the definition and the most frequent causes of SBS, together with an understanding of its physiopathology, prognostic factors, and treatment. An Internet search of PubMed articles was carried out for the existing information published over the last 20 years on SBS in children, using the keywords "short bowel syndrome". From a total of 784 potential articles, 82 articles were chosen for the literature review. The treatment of patients presenting with SBS is quite a challenge and therefore it is necessary to establish multidisciplinary management with a focus on maintaining optimal nutritional support that covers the necessities of growth and development and at the same time provides a maximum reduction of short, medium, and long-term complications. The diagnosis and treatment of a child with SBS require a team of professionals that are experts in gastroenterologic, pediatric, and nutritional management. The outcome for the child will be directly related to opportune management, as well as to the length of the intestinal resection and the presence or absence of the ileocecal valve.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Colostrum is rich in immunoregulatory, antimicrobial and trophic components supporting intestinal development and function in newborns. We assessed whether bovine colostrum could enhance intestinal adaptation and function in adult short bowel syndrome (SBS) patients. SUBJECTS/METHODS Twelve SBS patients in this randomised cross-over study received 4 weeks oral supplement of bovine colostrum or an iso-energetic and iso-proteinaceous control (2.4 MJ/d, 500 ml/day) separated by a 4-week washout period. Patients were admitted four times for 72-h periods of fluid, electrolyte and nutrient balance studies. Meals, faeces and urine were weighed, and energy, macronutrient and electrolyte contents were analysed to calculate net nutrient uptake. Body composition was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scans, and functional tests of handgrip strength and lung functions were performed. Eight patients completed the study and were included in the analysis. RESULTS Both supplements (colostrum and control) not only increased protein (0.96 ± 0.42 MJ/d, P=0.004 1.03 ± 0.44 MJ/d, P=0.003) and energy (1.46 ± 1.02 MJ/d, P=0.005, 1.76 ± 1.46 MJ/d, P=0.01) absorption but also absolute faecal wet weight excretions (231 ± 248 g/d, P=0.002, 319 ± 299 g/d, P=0.03), compared with baseline measurements. Both supplements improved handgrip strength (P=0.03) while only the control supplement increased lean body mass (1.12 ± 1.33 kg, P<0.049). Colostrum was not found to be superior to the control. CONCLUSION Intake of high-protein milk supplements increased net nutrient absorption for adult SBS patients, but at the expense of increased diarrhoea. Despite high contents of bioactive factors, colostrum did not significantly improve intestinal absorption, body composition or functional tests compared with the control.

Abstract
Short bowel syndrome (SBS) reflects a state of malabsorption that occurs due to loss of a significant portion of the small bowel. The pathophysiology of SBS is determined largely by the process of adaptation, which is the innate attempt by the remnant portions of the intestine to increase fluid and nutrient reabsorption. In recent years, emphasis has been placed on intestinal rehabilitation with multidisciplinary teams as a comprehensive approach to the management of patients with SBS. In our institution, the multidisciplinary team members include pediatric gastroenterologists, pediatric surgeons, pediatric dieticians, physical therapists, occupational therapists, neonatologists (especially for patients still under their care), transplant surgeons, transplant coordinators and social workers. Parenteral nutrition plays a significant role in the management of SBS, but its use is associated with many potential complications, including cholestatic liver disease. Fish oil-based lipid emulsions have shown promise in their ability to reverse and also prevent the development of cholestasis in these patients. Clinical trials have shown that growth factors and other trophic hormones facilitate the process of adaptation. The most significant impact has been shown with the use of glucagon-like peptide-2 and its analog (teduglutide). Surgical interventions remain an important part of the management of SBS to facilitate adaptation and treat complications. Intestinal transplantation is a last resort option when the process of adaptation is unsuccessful. This review article is intended to provide an overview of the conventional and emerging therapies for pediatric SBS.

Abstract
A 22-year-old man suffered an acute small bowel infarct leading to extensive bowel resection, resulting in only 20 cm of jejunum to a jejunostomy, although he also had 50 cm of residual colon with a mucous fistula. The patient was out on long-term home parenteral nutrition (PN) but endured high stomal losses of 5-6 L per day and, despite all conventional measures, required 6.1 L of fluid (including PN) and 555 mmol sodium per day. Although body mass index was maintained, he suffered debilitating malaise and recurrent episodes of catheter-related sepsis and also developed persistently abnormal liver function tests. He was considered a potential intestinal transplant patient, but before taking that step, he opted for reanastomosis of his residual colon to his jejunum, ending in a colostomy. At surgery, only 30 cm of additional bowel lengthening could be achieved, but despite this, the patient's stomal losses reduced to 2.5 L per day, intravenous fluid requirements reduced to 4.1 L per day, and liver function normalized. The patient also gained 7.5 kg despite no change in PN caloric prescription, and his quality of life was dramatically enhanced. The case illustrates that even a small length of colon can grant significant improvements, probably via improvements in small bowel transit and adaptive changes, better sodium and water resorption with decreased hyperaldosteronism, and enhanced energy and nitrogen recovery. Reanastomosis of defunctioned colon should therefore always be considered a management option in short bowel syndrome.

Abstract
Differences in feed intake and production efficiency in lactating Holstein-Friesian (HF), Jersey (JE), and JE × HF (F1) dairy cows have been reported. The liver-gut axis is important in the regulation of energy homeostasis, appetite behaviour, and production efficiency. The objectives of this study were to determine: 1) the effect of dairy cow genotype on the expression profiles of genes involved in energy homeostasis in duodenal and hepatic tissue, and 2) the association between the expression of these genes across both tissues and with economically important production efficiency traits. The expression of 27 candidate genes involved in energy homeostasis, feed intake, and energy storage was measured by qPCR. Duodenal expression of the pro-opiomelanocortin ( POMC), glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor ( GLP1R), and insulin-like growth factor 1 ( IGF1) genes was highest in HF. In contrast, hepatic expression of the leptin receptor ( LEPR), insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor ( IGF1R), protein kinase, AMP-activated, beta 1 ( AMPKB1), and POMC genes was highest in the F1 cross. In the duodenum, positive correlations were observed between mRNA expression of anorectic peptides ( POMC and GLP1R), whereas a negative correlation was detected between orexigenic (ghrelin) and anorectic (peptide YY) gene expression. A negative correlation was observed between duodenal POMC gene expression and both residual feed intake and milk production efficiency traits, while GLP1R gene expression was negatively correlated with milk production efficiency traits. A heterotic effect was observed in hepatic expression of AMKPB1, IGF1R, LEPR, POMC in the F1 genotype, possibly mediating improved feed efficiency in cross-bred cows. In conclusion, key genes involved in energy homeostasis and appetite behaviour are differentially expressed due to cow genotype in a tissue-dependent fashion. POMC and GLP1R are potential candidate genes for the identification of single nucleotide polymorphisms regulating energetic efficiency in the dairy cow, which may be incorporated into future breeding programmes.

Abstract
Short bowel syndrome (SBS) is the main cause of intestinal failure especially in children. The colon is a crucial partner for small intestine adaptation and function in patients who have undergone extensive small bowel resection. However, SBS predisposes the patient to small intestine bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), explaining its high prevalence in patients with this disorder. SIBO may significantly compromise digestive and absorptive functions and may delay or prevent weaning from total parenteral nutrition (TPN). Moreover, SIBO may be one of the causes of intestinal failure-associated liver disease, requiring liver transplantation in some cases. Traditional tests for assessing SIBO may be unreliable in SBS patients. Management of SIBO with antibiotic therapy as a first-line approach remains a matter of debate, while other approaches, including probiotics, offer potential based on experimental evidence, though only few data from human studies are available.

Abstract
Short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) are the major anion in stool and are synthesized from nonabsorbed carbohydrate by the colonic microbiota. Nonabsorbed carbohydrate are not absorbed in the colon and induce an osmotically mediated diarrhea; in contrast, SCFA are absorbed by colonic epithelial cells and stimulate Na-dependent fluid absorption via a cyclic AMP-independent process involving apical membrane Na-H, SCFA-HCO(3), and Cl-SCFA exchanges. SCFA production represents an adaptive process to conserve calories, fluid, and electrolytes. Inhibition of SCFA synthesis by antibiotics and administration of PEG, a substance that is not metabolized by colonic microbiota, both result in diarrhea. In contrast, increased production of SCFA as a result of providing starch that is relatively resistant to amylase digestion [so-called resistant starch (RS)] to oral rehydration solution (RS-ORS) improves the efficacy of ORS and represents an important approach to improve the effectiveness of ORS in the treatment of acute diarrhea in children under five years of age.

Abstract
Only 50 years ago intestinal failure was considered incompatible with life. Since then, developments in parenteral nutrition, and, more recently, small intestinal transplantation, have provided new therapeutic options with the potential to offer long-term survival with a good quality of life. Current medical and surgical strategies are aimed at enhancing intestinal adaptation, improving absorption to achieve nutritional independence, and minimizing the complications of parenteral nutrition therapy. An integrated, multidisciplinary approach to the management of patients with intestinal failure, closely linked to a transplantation program to facilitate early referral, is recognized as a key factor in optimizing patient outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS In a short-term study, Glucagon-like peptide 2 (GLP-2) has been shown to improve intestinal absorption in short bowel syndrome (SBS) patients. This study describes longitudinal changes in relation to GLP-2 treatment for two years. METHODS GLP-2, 400 micrograms, s.c.,TID, were offered, to eleven SBS patients keeping parenteral support constant. 72-hour nutritional balance studies were performed at baseline, weeks 13, 26, 52 during two years intermitted by an 8-week washout period. In addition, mucosal morphometrics, renal function (by creatinine clearance), body composition and bone mineral density (by DEXA), biochemical markers of bone turnover (by s-CTX and osteocalcin, PTH and vitamin D), and muscle function (NMR, lungfunction, exercise test) were measured. RESULTS GLP-2 compliance was >93%. Three of eleven patients did not complete the study. In the remaining 8 patients, GLP-2 significantly reduced the fecal wet weight from approximately 3.0 to approximately 2.0 kg/day. This was accompanied by a decline in the oral wet weight intake, maintaining intestinal wet weight absorption and urinary weight constant. Renal function improved. No significant changes were demonstrated in energy intake or absorption, and GLP-2 did not significantly affect mucosal morphology, body composition, bone mineral density or muscle function. CONCLUSIONS GLP-2 treatment reduces fecal weight by approximately 1000 g/d and enables SBS patients to maintain their intestinal fluid and electrolyte absorption at lower oral intakes. This was accompanied by a 28% improvement in creatinine clearance.

Abstract
Colon is a crucial partner for small intestinal adaptation and function in patients who underwent extensive small intestinal resection or transplantation. This short review deals with the different properties and roles of the colon in these settings, involving fluid and electrolytes absorption, absorption of medium-chain triglycerides, and production of short-chain fatty acids for malabsorbed energy salvage. The colon may adapt after small intestinal resection, whereas it hosts the most important part of the intestinal microbiota, which plays a crucial role in intestinal function and health. Also, colon may be responsible for D-lactic acidosis as well, as it can be injured by noninfectious colitis. Finally, the relevance of a simultaneous colon grafting is discussed as it is occasionally considered in specific patients requiring intestinal transplantation.

Abstract
Fundoplication is an effective treatment for severe gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) because it provides a mechanical solution to what is essentially a mechanical, not a medical, problem. However, manifestations of feeding intolerance postfundoplasty are well known and include dysphagia, gastric dysfunction, retching, gagging, intestinal dysfunction, and gas bloat syndrome. These difficulties are exacerbated by feeding plans that disregard the mechanical constraints imposed by the operation, particularly limited gastric volume, decreased gastric compliance, diminished ability to burp, sensitivity to osmolarity, and formula composition. These complications are preventable and treatable by informed construction of feeding plans that limit boluses (around 15 mL/kg/bolus), promote proper motility, manage intraluminal air, and limit polypharmacy. This case presentation describes a postfundoplasty infant with severe retching and intolerance treated according to these principles.

Abstract
Treatment of short bowel syndrome (SBS) is often a difficult endeavor due to the high variability among patients with SBS in regard to remaining anatomical structure and functional capacity. Research efforts to substantiate the use of existing therapies in the treatment of SBS are ongoing, with newer developments yet to be fully explored. Current therapy for SBS begins with the implementation of a modified diet based on the presence or absence of the colon. Patients with difficulty ingesting enough nutrients and fluids for weight maintenance and fluid balance may benefit from nocturnal enteral nutrition and hydration. Those with inadequate absorptive capacity despite maximization of oral and enteral intake will need parenteral nutrition (PN) or hydration. Medications, including antisecretory agents, antidiarrheals, pancreatic enzymes, bile acid sequestrants, and antibiotics, often are useful in abating symptoms commonly associated with SBS. Growth factors, including recombinant human growth hormone and glucagon-like peptide 2, may be trialed to stimulate intestinal adaptation and enhance absorption in PN-dependent SBS patients. The gradual refinement of surgical procedures for SBS, including small bowel transplantation, has led to improved outcomes, and early referral of SBS patients to centers of excellence will optimize care.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Short bowel syndrome (SBS) develops after massive small bowel resections. Patients with less than 12 cm of jejunoileum have a slim possibility of being weaned from parenteral nutrition (PN). PATIENTS AND METHODS In a retrospective review of records of consecutive patients with SBS, 8 patients were evaluated for treatment by adaptation and weaning from PN. These included 4 patients with class I SBS (0-10 cm of small bowel), one with class II SBS (>10-25 cm), one with class III SBS (>25-50 cm), and 2 with class IV SBS (>50-75 cm). Adaptation was assessed by measuring growth in the small bowel and the ability to be weaned from PN. RESULTS Adaptation was achieved primarily by extending the length of jejunoileum by approximately 450% over the first 2.5 years after resection and by increasing the degree of colonic fermentation and absorption of nutrients. As of July 1, 2005, all of the patients were off PN, with the exception of 2 patients with class I-A SBS: patient 3 had a remaining jejunoileum of only 2.5 cm and patient 4 had a remaining jejunoileum of 9 cm but developed eosinophilic enterocolitis. These 2 patients continued with PN on alternate months. CONCLUSIONS Bowel growth after massive small bowel resection provides an objective parameter of adaptation and a means of predicting ability to be weaned from PN. Aggressive nutritional support makes even patients with class I SBS, whose disease was previously considered hopeless, likely candidates to achieve freedom from PN.

Abstract
D-lactate is normally present in the blood of mammals at nanomolar concentrations due to methylglyoxal metabolism; millimolar d-lactate concentrations can arise due to excess gastrointestinal microbial production. Grain overload in ruminants, short-bowel syndrome in humans, and diarrhea in calves can all result in profound D-lactic acidemia, with remarkably similar neurological manifestations. In the past, D-lactate was thought to be excreted mainly in the urine, and metabolized slowly by the enzyme d-alpha-hydroxy acid dehydrogenase. More recent studies reported that mammals have a relatively high capacity for D-lactate metabolism and identified a putative mammalian D-lactate dehydrogenase. A growing body of literature is also emerging describing subclinical elevation of D-lactate as an indicator of sepsis and trauma. This article describes advances in the understanding of D-lactate metabolism, D-lactic acidosis in ruminants and humans, and subclinical elevation of d-lactate.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIM The influence of food intake on diet-induced thermogenesis, in the absence of parenteral nutrition, has not been assessed in short bowel syndrome (SBS) patients. We studied basal energy expenditure (BEE) and diet-induced thermogenesis in SBS patients (n=8) and paired healthy adult volunteer controls (n=8). METHODS Energy expenditure was measured by indirect calorimetry (IC) before and after control diet intake. All study participants received oral control diet randomly given in 3 doses (A=1.0, B=1.5 and C=2.0)x1/6 of BEE calories. Bioelectric impedance was assessed. Pairing criteria for controls were: age, sex, body mass index. RESULTS No significant differences were found between SBS and paired healthy control groups in relation to absolute BEE (P=0.146) and when it was adjusted for body mass index, lean and fat body mass (P=0.861, 0.208 and 0.574, respectively). All diets promoted thermogenesis in both groups. The interaction between the control diet (A, B and C) and SBS and healthy control groups for diet induced thermogenesis presented a significant difference (P=0.026). When comparing groups (SBS vs healthy controls) in relation to the control diet (B and C) we observed: P=0.030 and 0.004, respectively. CONCLUSION In patients with SBS it was observed that: (1) BEE measured by IC in absolute values or adjusted by lean body mass is similar to healthy control group; (2) Diet-induced thermogenesis was lower than the healthy control group for higher caloric diets (B and C).

Abstract
Intestinal epithelial cell turnover (proliferation, migration, differentiation, and apoptosis) and gut barrier functions are dynamic processes that are markedly affected by nutritional status, the route of feeding, and the adequacy of specific nutrients in the diet. Emerging studies are defining potential therapeutic roles for specific nutrients and diet-derived compounds (including arginine, glutamate, glutamine, glutathione, glycine, vitamin A, zinc, and specific lipids) in gut mucosal turnover, repair, adaptation after massive bowel resection, and barrier function. The role and regulation of endogenous bowel flora in generating short-chain fatty acids from diet-derived fiber and other diet-derived compounds and the effects of these agents on gut function are increasingly being elucidated. Results of these investigations should define new nutritional methods for trophic and cytoprotective effects on the intestine in conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease, malnutrition, and short bowel syndrome.
