Abstract Background Parenteral nutrition (PN) is prescribed for preterm infants until needs are met via the enteral route, but unanswered questions remain regarding PN best practices in this population. Methods An interdisciplinary committee was assembled to answer 12 concerning provision of infants. The Grading Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) process used. Questions addressed parenteral macronutrient doses, lipid injectable emulsion (ILE) composition,...

Although low-income populations have more eye problems, whether they face greater difficulty obtaining care appointments is unknown.

Current clinical practice guidelines delineate optimal nutrition management in the intensive care unit (ICU) patient. In light of these existing data, authors identify current physician perceptions critical illness, preferences relating to initiation feeding, and practices specific after feeding ICU patient.The electronically distributed a 12-question survey attending physicians, fellows, residents who routinely admit patients medical surgical ICUs.On scale ranging from 1 5 (1 = low, high),...

Health care providers (N = 256) completed an online questionnaire to assess their knowledge, perceptions, and use of probiotics prebiotics. Participants were familiar with (88%) but not prebiotics (22%). Probiotics (62%) (55%) perceived as being "somewhat" "quite a bit" beneficial health (μ 3.6 ± 1.0 1.2, respectively). "very much" willing recommend (77%) (83%) if substantiated literature. Despite this belief, they did (45%) or (26%) patients read current research (75% 76%,

Human milk reduces risk for necrotizing enterocolitis in preterm infants. Necrotizing occurs the ileocecal region where thousands of protein-derived peptides have been released from digestion. Digestion-released may exert bioactivity, such as antimicrobial and immunomodulatory activities, gut. In this study, we applied mass spectrometry-based peptidomics to characterize present colostrum before after vitro Sequence-based computational modeling was predict with activity. We identified more...

Abstract Background Premature infants are susceptible to oxidative stress, increasing the risk for serious morbidities. High‐dose human milk (HM) feedings decrease morbidity risks and may reduce stress in this population. The purpose of study was compare using serial urinary F 2 ‐isoprostane concentrations predominantly HM preterm formula (PF)–fed premature over first 21 days life (DOL), while controlling perinatal exposures including bovine‐based fortifier (HMF) or PF introduction HM‐fed...

BACKGROUND Transcription factor 7 (TCF7) plays an essential role in Wnt signaling by interacting with ß-catenin. Emerging evidence demonstrates that overexpression of TCF7 promotes progression or correlates poor several types cancers, but the functions gastric cancer (GC) have not been revealed. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total 168 patients GC who underwent radical surgeries were collected and regarded as test cohort. The expression was detected immunohistochemistry. Moreover, mRNA levels 11...

The objective was to investigate associations of serum vitamin D concentration with depressive symptoms and assess the impact has on occurrence in 20–44-year-old pregnant mothers, postpartum women (non-pregnant/postpartum women), men, including a separate subgroup analysis breastfeeding non-breastfeeding mothers. study populations were selected from 2007-2018 NHANES public data. Subjective interview data laboratory data, symptoms, concentration, nutrient intake, demographic information...

Human milk (HM) feedings are associated with reduced risks of neurodevelopmental and neurocognitive delays systemic inflammatory diseases in infants born prematurely and/or at a low birth weight. Utilizing neonatal piglet model, HM were compared to bovine milk-derived infant formula (IF)-feedings the aim understanding underlying mechanisms involved reducing these risks. Six male piglets postnatal-day (PD)2 randomized into two feeding groups: HM-fed (n = 3) or IF-fed for 28 days. At 3-...

The aim of this study was to determine the effect digested whole human milk (HM; first sample available after birth from mothers premature infants) on inflammation, oxidative stress, and cytotoxicity in Caco-2 intestinal epithelial cells stimulated with lipopolysaccharides or tumor necrosis factor (TNF) mimic potential vivo insults facing infant's gastrointestinal tract.Fully differentiated were exposed HM (n = 10; samples 10 different individuals) before stimulation lipopolysaccharides,...

Characteristics of exclusively breastfeeding mothers were examined. Data collected from 299 delivering at a Midwest medical center (183 inpatient and 76 postdischarge). Mothers who breastfed more likely to be white, married, have attained bachelor's degree or higher, private insurance. Support the baby's father was most important mothers. Breastfeeding achieved higher scores on Iowa Infant Feeding Attitude Scale (65.63 ± 6.91 85), indicating positive attitudes toward compared with...
