Abstract
Background Enteral nutrition is a very important form of treatment for critically ill patients. This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the clinical effects and safety of semi-solid feeds in tube-fed patients. Methods Two researchers searched PubMed, clinical trials, Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Data, and Weipu databases for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on the clinical effects and safety of semi-solid feeds in tube-fed patients until 10 October 2023. The quality evaluation tool recommended by the Cochrane Library was used to evaluate the quality of included RCTs. RevMan 5.4 software was used for data analysis. Results A total of eight RCTs involving 823 tube-fed patients were included in this meta-analysis. A synthesized outcome indicated that semi-solid feeds reduced the incidence of diarrhea (RR = 0.32, 95%CI:0.20-0.50, P < 0.001), vomiting (RR = 0.31, 95%CI:0.15-0.64, P = 0.002), abdominal distension (RR = 0.41, 95%CI:0.22-0.76, P = 0.005), length of intensive care unit (ICU) stay (MD = -3.61, 95%CI: -6.74 to -0.48, P = 0.02), and length of hospital stay (MD = -7.14, 95%CI: -10.31 to -3.97, P < 0.01) in tube-fed patients. Enteric feeding had no effect on the 30-day mortality (RR = 0.55, 95%CI: 0.19-1.56, P = 0.26). No publication bias was detected by the Egger's test results (all P > 0.05). Conclusion Semi-solid feeds are beneficial in reducing the incidence of diarrhea, abdominal distension, vomiting, and hospital stay. More high-quality studies are needed in the future to verify the effects of semi-solid feeds on mortality.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Some data, mostly originally derived from animal studies, suggest that low glucose intake is protective in bacterial sepsis but detrimental in overwhelming viral infections. This has been interpreted into a broad belief that different forms of sepsis may potentially require different nutritional management strategies. There are a few mechanistic differences between the host interactions with virus and bacteria which can explain why there may be opposing responses to macronutrient and micronutrient during the infected state. Here, we aim to review relevant evidence on the mechanisms and pathophysiology of nutritional management strategies in various infectious syndromes and summarize their clinical implications. RECENT FINDINGS Newer literature - in the context of the SARS-CoV-19 pandemic - offers some insight to viral infections. There is still limited clinically applicable data during infection that clearly delineate the role of nutrition during an active viral vs bacterial infections. Based on contrasting findings in different models of viruses and bacteria, the macronutrient and micronutrient needs may depend more on specific infectious organisms that may not be generalizable as bacterial versus viral. Overall, the metabolic effects of sepsis are context dependent, and various host-specific (e.g., age, baseline nutritional status, immune status, comorbidities) and illness variables (phase, duration, and severity of illness) play a significant role in determining the outcome besides pathogen-specific (virus or bacterial or fungi and combined infections) factors. Microbe therapy (probiotics and prebiotics) seems to have therapeutic potential in both viral and bacterial infected states, and this seems like a promising area for further practical research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Patients who experience gastrointestinal (GI) intolerance and hyperglycemia (or glucose intolerance) may not achieve appropriate caloric requirements and experience poor outcomes. The aim was to examine patient characteristics, disease severity, and enteral nutrition (EN) formula use in relation to feeding intolerance and healthcare resource utilization. METHODS A retrospective, cross-sectional design using real-world data from PINC AI™ Healthcare Database, 2015-2019 was used. Critically ill hospitalized adults who required ≥3 days of 100% whey peptide-based EN, other peptide-based diets, or intact-protein standard and diabetic EN formulas were included. Primary outcomes were enteral feeding intolerance, including GI intolerance and hyperglycemia. Pairwise comparisons of other peptide-based and standard intact-protein groups with 100% whey-peptide were completed. Associations between EN group with GI intolerance and hyperglycemia, respectively, were evaluated via multivariable logistic regressions. RESULTS Across 67 US hospitals, 19,679 inpatients (3242,100% whey-peptide, 3121 other peptide-based, and 13,316 standard intact-protein) were included. The 100% whey-peptide group had higher severity of illness and frequencies of comorbidities compared with other peptide-based and standard intact-protein groups. Hospital length of stay, intensive care unit stay, and 30-day readmission were similar across peptide-based cohorts. After controlling for demographic, visit, and severity characteristics, odds of GI intolerance were 18% higher for the other peptide-based group and 15% higher for the standard intact-protein group compared with the 100% whey-peptide group (each P < 0.03). In secondary analysis, odds of hyperglycemia were 81% higher for the other peptide-based group compared with the subgroup of very high-protein/low carbohydrate 100% whey-peptide (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Lower GI intolerance and greater glycemic control were associated with the use of 100% whey-peptide formulas relative to other formulas. Appropriate and optimal delivery of EN using specialized peptide-based formulas is a strategy to minimize feeding intolerance and benefit critically ill patients.

Abstract
Nutritional Immunity is one of the most ancient innate immune responses, during which the body can restrict nutrients availability to pathogens and restricts their uptake by the gut mucosa (mucosal block). Though this can be a beneficial strategy during infection, it also is associated with non-communicable diseases-where the pathogen is missing; leading to increased morbidity and mortality as micronutritional uptake and distribution in the body is hindered. Here, we discuss the acute immune response in respect to nutrients, the opposing nutritional demands of regulatory and inflammatory cells and particularly focus on some nutrients linked with inflammation such as iron, vitamins A, Bs, C, and other antioxidants. We propose that while the absorption of certain micronutrients is hindered during inflammation, the dietary lymph path remains available. As such, several clinical trials investigated the role of the lymphatic system during protein absorption, following a ketogenic diet and an increased intake of antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, in reducing inflammation and ameliorating disease.

Abstract
Enteral nutrition (EN) is important for critically ill patients. This study investigated the current situation of EN treatment in SHANGHAI intensive care units (ICUs). We hypothesized that improving EN practice in SHANGHAI may benefit the prognosis of ICU patients. Clinical information on EN use was collected using clinic information forms in 2019. The collected data included the patient's general clinical information, EN prescription status, EN tolerance status, and clinical outcomes. The observation time points were days 1, 3, and 7 after starting EN. A total of 491 patients were included. The proportion of EN intolerance (defined as < 20 kcal/kg/day) decreased, with rates of intolerance of 100%, 82.07%, 70.61%, and 52.23% at 1, 3, 7, and 14 days, respectively. Age, mNutric score, and protein intake < 0.5 g/kg/day on day 7 were risk factors for 28-day mortality.The EN tolerance on day 7 and protein intake > 0.5 g/kg/day on day 3 or day 7 might affect the 28-day mortality. Risk factors with EN tolerance on day 7 by logistic regression showed that the AGI grade on day 1 was a major factor against EN tolerance. The proportion of EN tolerance in SHANGHAI ICU patients was low. Achieving tolerance on day 7 after the start of EN is a protective factor for 28-day survival. Improving EN tolerance and protein intake maybe beneficial for ICU patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Malnutrition is prevalent among COVID-19 patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) and it is associated with poor survival. Customized nutrition plays a vital role in enhancing outcomes for this patient population. This study explores the association between energy and protein intake and 90-day mortality in invasively mechanically ventilated COVID-19 patients, utilizing fat-free mass (FFM) and actual body weight (ABW) for nutritional requirements. Furthermore, the study investigates the occurrence of gastrointestinal (GI) intolerance in critically ill COVID-19 patients in relation to their nutritional intake and survival. METHODS A retrospective study was undertaken at a university-affiliated teaching hospital, focusing on COVID-19 patients on invasive mechanical ventilation admitted to the ICU between March 2020 and December 2021. The study collected demographic and clinical data, along with cumulative energy and protein goals, and recorded cumulative intake on days 4, 7, and throughout the ICU stay. Univariate and multivariable Cox regression analyses were conducted to evaluate associations between energy and protein deficits and the 90-day all-cause mortality. RESULTS The study included 85 patients, of whom 67 (78 %) survived 90 days after ICU admission. There were no significant differences in body composition between survivors and non-survivors. Reaching ≥70 % of the energy goal based on both ABW and FFM during the ICU stay was associated with decreased 90-day mortality (HR 0.22, 95 % CI 0.08-0.60 and HR 0.28, 95 % CI 0.09-0.85, respectively). Similarly, achieving ≥80 % of the protein target based on FFM was associated with decreased 90-day mortality (HR 0.26, 95 % CI 0.07-0.94), whereas no significant association was found for reaching protein targets based on ABW (HR 0.03, 95 % CI 0.00-3.40). Patients who reached both their energy and protein goal based on FFM during ICU admission showed a lower risk of all-cause 90-day mortality compared to those who received <70 % of the energy goal and <80 % of protein based on FFM after adjusting for age (aHR 0.12, 95 % CI 0.03-0.50). No differences in GI intolerance related symptoms between COVID-19 survivors and non-survivors were observed. CONCLUSIONS This study underscores the significance of providing adequate nutritional therapy to COVID-19 ICU patients who require IMV. Meeting over 80 % of the protein goals based on BIA-derived FFM was associated with lower mortality rates, which emphasizes the need for further investigation into the role of FFM in establishing nutritional targets.

Abstract
Congenital anomalies, congenital malformations, or birth defects can be defined as any structural or functional anomalies that develop prenatally and could be identified before, at birth, or later in life. Approximately 6% of babies are born with a congenital anomaly, which results in 2.4 million newborn deaths worldwide. This systematic review and meta-analysis ascertained the quantitative studies published in PubMed, ClinicalKey, Embase, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar. Two authors independently screened and extracted the data from the primary studies that analyzed the efficacy of early enteral nutrition (EEN) on the postoperative outcome. This systematic review and meta-analysis adopted Cochrane Collaboration guidelines and reported using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) statement. The methodological quality of trials was assessed by Cochrane Collaboration's risk of bias tool. Six trials, representing 488 children, with age ranging from 10 days to 6.5 years, fulfilled the inclusion criteria. EEN has significantly shortened hospital stay, induced early fecal movement, and reduced postoperative wound infections in children with congenital gastrointestinal abnormalities undergoing gastrointestinal anastomosis compared with children who received late enteral nutrition. The review also found that the experimental group who received EEN had no significant impact on the anastomosis leakage, vomiting, and abdominal distension. EEN has some positive effects on postsurgery outcomes among children with congenital gastrointestinal anomalies undergoing gastrointestinal anastomosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In intensive care units (ICUs), both continuous and intermittent feeding are commonly used for early enteral nutrition (EN). However, whether continuous feeding is a preferable feeding modality compared to intermittent feeding remains unclear. Therefore, this meta-analysis assessed the clinical efficacy of both EN feeding modalities in critically ill patients. METHODS The PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases were searched from their inception dates to December 29, 2022. The search did not involve language restrictions (PROSPERO CRD42022371756). Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing the clinical efficacy and safety of continuous feeding and intermittent feeding in critically ill patients in ICUs were included. RESULTS We included 13 RCTs involving 785 patients. Compared with intermittent feeding, continuous feeding was associated with a lower mortality rate (relative risk [RR], 0.68; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.47, 0.98; p = 0.04) but a higher risk of constipation (RR, 1.57; 95% CI, 1.02, 2.43; p = 0.04). Trial sequential analysis (TSA) for mortality rate presented a cumulative Z-curve crossing the traditional boundary, but the curve did not cross the TSA boundary for benefit. No significant differences were found in the aspiration/pneumonia rate (RR, 1.19; 95% CI, 0.51, 2.75; p = 0.69), diarrhea rate (RR, 0.82; 95% CI, 0.58, 1.16; p = 0.26), or increased gastric residual volumes (RR, 1.05; 95% CI, 0.58, 1.90; p = 0.86) between the groups. CONCLUSION Despite the low certainty of evidence, compared with intermittent feeding, continuous feeding may reduce the mortality rate in critically ill patients in ICU. Additional studies are needed to provide more evidence and validate the findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Beta-hydroxy-beta-methylbutyrate (HMB) is a nutrition supplement that may attenuate muscle wasting from critical illness. This trial aimed to determine feasibility of administering a blinded nutrition supplement in the intensive care unit (ICU) and continuing it after ICU discharge. METHODS Single-center, parallel-group, blinded, placebo-controlled, randomized feasibility trial. After traumatic injury necessitating admission to ICU, participants were randomized to receive an enteral study supplement of 3 g of HMB (intervention) or placebo daily for 28 days or until hospital discharge. Primary outcome was feasibility of administering the study supplement, quantified as protocol adherence. Secondary outcomes included change in quadriceps muscle thickness, measured weekly until day 28 or hospital discharge by using ultrasound and analyzed by using a linear mixed model. RESULTS Fifty randomized participants (intervention, n = 26; placebo, n = 24) showed comparable baseline characteristics. Participants received 862 (84.3%) of the 1022 prescribed supplements during hospitalization with 543 (62.8%) delivered via an enteral feeding tube. The median (IQR) number of study supplements successfully administered per participant was 19.5 (13.0-24.0) in the intervention group and 16.5 (8.5-23.5) in the placebo group. Marked loss of quadriceps muscle thickness occurred in both groups, with the point estimate favoring attenuated muscle loss with the intervention, albeit with wide CIs (mean intervention difference after 28 days, 0.26 cm [95% CI, -0.13 to 0.64]). CONCLUSION A blinded, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial of daily enteral HMB supplementation for up to 28 days in hospital is feasible. Any effect of HMB supplementation to attenuate muscle wasting after traumatic injury remains uncertain.

Abstract
PURPOSE To describe the occurrence of gastrointestinal (GI) complications, specifically diarrhoea and constipation, in artificially (enterally or parenterally) fed critically ill patients within their first seven-day stay in Intensive Care Unit (ICU). METHODS Observational prospective study conducted from September 1st to October 30th, 2019 and from August 1st to October 30th, 2021, in an ICU of a 1000-bed third-level hospital. General characteristics, nutritional variables, and medications administered were recorded and analysed. This study was registered on ClinicalTrials.gov (Identifier: NCT05473546). RESULTS In total, 100 critically ill patients were included. Diarrhoea was present in 44 patients (44.0%), while constipation occurred in 22 (22.0%) patients. Patients with diarrhoea were generally those admitted for respiratory failure, whereas patients without diarrhoea were mostly affected by neurological disorders (22.7% vs 25%, respectively; p = 0.002). Likewise, patients with constipation were primarily those admitted for trauma (36.4%). Trauma patients were almost 24 times more likely to be constipated than patients with respiratory failure (OR 23.99, CI 1.38-418.0) and patients receiving diuretics were over 16 times more likely to have diarrhoea than patients not receiving diuretics (OR 16.25, IC 1.89-139.86). CONCLUSION GI complications of enteral nutrition represent still a very common issue in ICU. The main predictor of constipation was an admission for trauma whereas the main predictor of diarrhoea was the use of diuretics. Clinicians should consider and integrate these findings into more personalized nutritional and management protocols to avoid gastrointestinal complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypovitamin B1 occurs frequently during critical illness but is challenging to predict or rapidly diagnose. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether plasma phosphate concentrations predict hypovitamin B1, enteral nutrition prevents hypovitamin B1 and intravenous thiamine supplementation achieves supraphysiological concentrations in critically ill patients. METHODS Thirty-two enterally fed critically ill patients, with a plasma phosphate concentration ≤0.65 mmol/L, formed a nested cohort within a larger randomised clinical trial. Patients were assigned to receive intravenous thiamine (200 mg) twice daily, and controls were not administered intravenous thiamine. Thiamine pyrophosphate concentrations were measured at four time points (pre- and post-infusion and 4- and 6-h post-infusion) on days 1 and 3 in those allocated to thiamine and once in the control group. RESULTS Baseline thiamine pyrophosphate concentrations were similar (intervention 88 [67, 93] vs. control 89 [62, 110] nmol/L, p = 0.49). Eight (25%) patients had hypovitamin B1 (intervention 3 vs. control 5), with two patients in the control group remaining insufficient at day 3. There was no association between baseline phosphate and thiamine pyrophosphate concentrations. Intravenous thiamine achieved supraphysiological concentrations 6 h post first infusion, with concentrations increasing to day 3. In the control group, thiamine pyrophosphate concentrations were not statistically different between baseline and day 3 (mean change: 8.6 [-6.0, 23.1] nmol/L, p = 0.25). CONCLUSIONS Phosphate concentrations did not predict hypovitamin B1, which was observed in 25% of the participants. Enteral nutrition alone prevented the development of new hypovitamin B1. Administration of a single 200-mg dose of intravenous thiamine achieved supraphysiological concentrations of thiamine pyrophosphate, with repeated dosing sustaining this effect.

Abstract
According to the latest international resuscitation guidelines, extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) involves the utilization of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in specific patients experiencing cardiac arrest, and it can be considered in situations where standard cardiopulmonary resuscitation efforts fail if they have a potentially reversible underlying cause, among which we can also find hypothermia. In cases of cardiac arrest, both witnessed and unwitnessed, hypothermic patients have higher chances of survival and favorable neurological outcomes compared to normothermic patients. ECPR is a multifaceted procedure that requires a proficient team, specialized equipment, and comprehensive multidisciplinary support within a healthcare system. However, it also carries the risk of severe, life-threatening complications. With the increasing use of ECPR in recent years and the growing number of centers implementing this technique outside the intensive care units, significant uncertainties persist in both prehospital and emergency department (ED) settings. Proper organization is crucial for an ECPR program in emergency settings, especially given the challenges and complexities of these treatments, which were previously not commonly used in ED. Therefore, within a narrative review, we have incorporated the initial case of ECPR in an ED in Romania, featuring a successful resuscitation in the context of severe hypothermia (20 °C) and a favorable neurological outcome (CPC score of 1).

Abstract
The optimal timing of enteral nutrition (EN) in sepsis patients is controversial among societal guidelines. We aimed to evaluate the evidence of early EN's impact on critically ill sepsis patients' clinical outcomes. We searched the MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, ClinicalTrials.gov, and ICTRP databases on 10 March 2023. We included studies published after 2004 that compared early EN versus delayed EN in sepsis patients. We included randomized controlled trials (RCTs), non-RCTs, cohort studies, and case-control studies. Forest plots were used to summarize risk ratios (RRs), including mortality and mean difference (MD) of continuous variables such as intensive care unit (ICU) length of stay and ventilator-free days. We identified 11 eligible studies with sample sizes ranging from 31 to 2410. The RR of short-term mortality from three RCTs was insignificant, and the MD of ICU length of stay from two RCTs was -2.91 and -1.00 days (95% confidence interval [CI], -5.53 to -0.29 and -1.68 to -0.32). Although the RR of intestinal-related complications from one RCT was 3.82 (95% CI, 1.43 to 10.19), indicating a significantly higher risk for the early EN group than the control group, intestinal-related complications of EN reported in five studies were inconclusive. This systematic review did not find significant benefits of early EN on mortality in sepsis patients. Evidence, however, is weak due to inconsistent definitions, heterogeneity, risk of bias, and poor methodology in the existing studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The association between gastrointestinal intolerance during early enteral nutrition (EN) and adverse clinical outcomes in critically ill patients is controversial. We aimed to assess the prognostic value of enteral feeding intolerance (EFI) markers during early ICU stays and to predict early EN failure using a machine learning (ML) approach. METHODS We performed a retrospective analysis of data from adult patients admitted to Beilinson Hospital ICU between January 2011 and December 2018 for more than 48 h and received EN. Clinical data, including demographics, severity scores, EFI markers, and medications, along with 72 h after admission, were analyzed by ML algorithms. Prediction performance was assessed by the area under the receiver operating characteristics (AUCROC) of a ten-fold cross-validation set. RESULTS The datasets comprised 1584 patients. The means of the cross-validation AUCROCs for 90-day mortality and early EN failure were 0.73 (95% CI 0.71-0.75) and 0.71 (95% CI 0.67-0.74), respectively. Gastric residual volume above 250 mL on the second day was an important component of both prediction models. CONCLUSIONS ML underlined the EFI markers that predict poor 90-day outcomes and early EN failure and supports early recognition of at-risk patients. Results have to be confirmed in further prospective and external validation studies.

Abstract
Nutritional support for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) patients shares metabolic notions common to other critically ill conditions. Nevertheless, it generates specific concern regarding the primary limitation of oxygen supply and the complications of carbon dioxide elimination, as well as the significant metabolic alterations due to the body's response to illness. In the present narrative review, after briefly summarizing the pathophysiology of critical illness stress response and patients' metabolic requirements, we focus on describing the characteristics of metabolic and artificial nutrition in patients with acute respiratory failure. In patients with ARDS, several aspects of metabolism assume special importance. The physiological effects of substrate metabolism are described for this setting, particularly regarding energy consumption, diet-induced thermogenesis, and the price of their clearance, transformation, and storage. Moreover, we review the possible direct effects of macronutrients on lung tissue viability during ARDS. Finally, we summarize the noteworthy characteristics of metabolic control in critically ill patients with ARDS and offer a suggestion as to the ideal methods of metabolic support for this problem.

Abstract
Surgery and traumatic injury set off a cascade of metabolic changes that are becoming better understood. Recently, strategies and protocols have been developed for optimizing outcomes, and this has yielded beneficial results. This brief review evaluates three specific nutrition or metabolic interventions in the postoperative setting that attempt to optimize outcomes. We limited this to three subspecialty areas including oncologic surgery, orthopedic surgery, and cardiac surgery. These agents included fish oils, factors to prevent dysbiosis, and resistance exercise and its role in enhancing protein update. Where these novel agents fit into the basic tenets of postoperative nutrition interventions does not change the narrative: deliver graduated early enteral feeding to attenuate the metabolic response to surgical stress, maintain the gastrointestinal mucosal barrier, use immune/metabolic modulation to enhance immune response while attenuating excessive inflammation, and support the microbiome.

Abstract
Sepsis syndrome develops through enhanced secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines and the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Sepsis syndrome is characterized by vascular hyperpermeability, hypotension, multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS), and increased mortality, among others. Endotoxemia-derived sepsis is an important cause of sepsis syndrome. During endotoxemia, circulating endotoxin interacts with endothelial cells (ECs), inducing detrimental effects on endothelium function. The endotoxin induces the conversion of ECs into fibroblasts, which are characterized by a massive change in the endothelial gene-expression pattern. This downregulates the endothelial markers and upregulates fibrotic proteins, mesenchymal transcription factors, and extracellular matrix proteins, producing endothelial fibrosis. Sepsis progression is modulated by the consumption of specific nutrients, including ω-3 fatty acids, ascorbic acid, and polyphenolic antioxidant flavonoids. However, the underlying mechanism is poorly described. The notion that gene expression is modulated during inflammatory conditions by nutrient consumption has been reported. However, it is not known whether nutrient consumption modulates the fibrotic endothelial gene-expression pattern during sepsis as a mechanism to decrease vascular hyperpermeability, hypotension, MODS, and mortality. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the impact of the consumption of dietary ω-3 fatty acids, ascorbic acid, and polyphenolic antioxidant flavonoid supplements on the modulation of fibrotic endothelial gene-expression patterns during sepsis and to determine the effects on sepsis outcomes. Our results indicate that the consumption of supplements based on ω-3 fatty acids and polyphenolic antioxidant flavonoids was effective for improving endotoxemia outcomes through prophylactic ingestion and therapeutic usage. Thus, our findings indicated that specific nutrient consumption improves sepsis outcomes and should be considered in treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE the aim of this study was to compare the incidence rate of feeding intolerance (FI) during supine (SP) or prone positioning (PP) in critically ill COVID-19 patients. METHODS this was a retrospective cohort study of critically ill patients with overweight or obesity who received enteral nutrition (EN) in prone or supine positioning continuously during the first five days of mechanical ventilation. Nutritional risk, anthropometric measurements and body composition were assessed at the first 24 hours upon Intensive Care Unit (ICU) admission. Biochemical and clinical variables (Sequential Organ Failure Assessment [SOFA], Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II [APACHE II], Acute Kidney Injury [AKI] or comorbidities diagnosis) were collected. Pharmacotherapy (prokinetics, sedatives or neuromuscular blocking agents) and FI incidence (gastric residual volume [GRV] ≥ 200 ml or ≥ 500 ml, vomiting or diarrhea) were daily recorded. Constipation was defined as the absence of evacuation for five consecutive days. RESULTS eighty-two patients were included. Higher rate of prophylactic prokinetic prescription was observed in PP (42.8 vs 12.5 %, p = 0.002). GRV ≥ 200 in supine position was not different when compared to PP (p = 0.47). Vomiting episodes in supine compared to PP showed no difference between groups (15 % vs 24 %, p = 0.31). No differences in diarrhea events were detected (10 % vs 4.7 %, p = 0.36). Constipation was common in both groups (95 % vs 82 %, p = 0.06). CONCLUSION FI during prone position was not different in comparison to supine position. Routinely use of prokinetics in continuous prone position may help to prevent FI incidence. Algorithm development is necessary for FI prevention and treatment so to avoid EN interruptions and adverse clinical outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Biomarkers proposed to provide prognosis or to determine the response to enteral nutrition have been assessed in a number of experimental and clinical studies which are summarized in the current review. RECENT FINDINGS There are several pathophysiological mechanisms identified which could provide biomarkers to determine response to enteral nutrition. Several biomarkers have been studied, most of them insufficiently and none of them has made its way to clinical practice. Available studies have mainly assessed a simple association of a biomarker with outcomes, but are less focused on dynamic changes in the biomarker levels. Importantly, studies on pathophysiology and clinical features of gastrointestinal dysfunction, including enteral feeding intolerance, are also needed to explore the mechanisms potentially providing specific biomarkers. Not only an association of the biomarker with any adverse outcome, but also a rationale for repeated assessment to assist in treatment decisions during the course of illness is warranted. SUMMARY There is no biomarker currently available to reliably provide prognosis or determine the response to enteral nutrition in clinical practice, but identification of such a biomarker would be valuable to assist in clinical decision-making.

Abstract
Oral health is an underestimated factor affecting overall human health and quality of life. Long-term enteral or parenteral nutritional treatment requires not only regular assessment of access routes, the patient's nutritional status, and tolerance to the selected method of nutrition but also of oral health. This article discusses the connections between the influence of chewing function, salivation, and xerostomia on the health of the oral cavity of patients on long-term enteral and parenteral nutrition. In addition, the role of nurses in assessing oral health is presented as well as crucial elements of a comprehensive oral assessment in a nursing care plan. Patients receiving long-term enteral and parenteral nutrition have an increased risk of developing oral diseases. Increasing knowledge about the factors affecting oral health among nurses is crucial to provide appropriate care for patients requiring long-term nutritional treatment with omission of the natural route of food intake. Regular assessment of oral health by nurses should be an important aspect in long-term nutritional treatment recommendations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Feeding interruptions in critical care patients are often unjustified. We aimed to determine the causes, duration, and frequency of enteral nutrition interruptions (ENIs) and to assess macronutrients and antioxidant deficits according to European Society of Parenteral Enteral Nutrition (ESPEN) guidelines. METHODS We prospectively enrolled Intensive Care Unit (ICU) patients admitted for more than 48 h with an inability to orally eat from April to December 2019. The type of enteral nutrition, the number of calories administered, the time of feeding initiation, the reasons for delaying feeding, and the causes for ENI were recorded. RESULTS 81 patients were enrolled, with a median duration of ENIs of 5.2 (3.4-7.4) hours/day. Gastric residual volume (GRV) monitoring-a highly controversial practice-was the most common cause of ENI (median duration 3 (2.3-3) hours/day). The mean energy intake was 1037 ± 281 kcal/day, while 60.5% of patients covered less than 65% of the total energy needs (1751 ± 295 kcal/day, according to mean Body Mass Index (BMI)). The median daily protein intake did not exceed 0.43 ± 0.3 gr/kg/day of the actual body weight (BW), whereas ESPEN recommends 1.3 gr/kg/day for adjusted BW (p < 0.001). The average administration of micronutrients and antioxidants (arginine, selenium, zinc, vitamins) was significantly less than the dietary reference intake (p < 0.01). CONCLUSION ENIs lead to substantial caloric, protein, and antioxidant deficits.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the potential benefits of using an energy-dense, high-protein (HP) formula enriched with β-hydroxy-β-methylbutyrate (HMB), fructo-oligosaccharide (FOS), and vitamin D (VitD) for enteral feeding in the intensive care unit (ICU). METHODS This was a nested case-control multicenter study. Mechanically ventilated patients with COVID-19 in whom enteral nutrition was not contraindicated and receiving an energy-dense, HP-HMB-FOS-VitD formula (1.5 kcal/mL; 21.5% of calories from protein; n = 53) were matched (1:1) by age (±1 y), sex, body mass index (±1 kg/m2) and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score (±1 point) and compared with patients fed with a standard HP, fiber-free formula (1.25-1.3 kcal/mL; 20% of calories from protein; n = 53). The primary end point was daily protein intake (g/kg) on day 4. Protein-calorie intake on day 7, gastrointestinal intolerance, and clinical outcomes were addressed as secondary end points. RESULTS The use of a HP-HMB-FOS-VitD formula resulted in higher protein intake on days 4 and 7 (P = 0.006 and P = 0.013, respectively), with similar energy intake but higher provision of calories from enteral nutrition at both times (P <0 .001 and P = 0.017, respectively). Gastrointestinal tolerance was superior, with fewer patients fed with a HP-HMB-FOS-VitD formula reporting at least one symptom of intolerance (55 versus 74%; odds ratio [OR], 0.43; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.18-0.99; P = 0.046) and constipation (38 versus 66%; OR, 0.27; 95% CI, 0.12-0.61; P = 0.002). A lower rate of ICU-acquired infections was also observed (42 versus 72%; OR, 0.29; 95% CI, 0.13-0.65; P = 0.003), although no difference was found in mortality, ICU length of stay, and ventilation-free survival. CONCLUSIONS An energy-dense, HP-HMB-FOS-VitD formula provided a more satisfactory protein intake and a higher provision of caloric intake from enteral nutrition than a standard HP formula in mechanically ventilated patients with COVID-19. Lower rates of gastrointestinal intolerance and ICU-acquired infections were also observed.

Abstract
Patients receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) inherit substantial disease-associated metabolic, endocrinologic, and immunologic modifications. Along with the technical components of ECMO, the aforementioned alterations may affect patients' needs and feasibility of adequate macronutrient and micronutrient supply and intake. Thus, patients receiving ECMO are at increased risk for iatrogenic malnutrition and require targeted individual medical nutrition therapy (MNT). However, specific recommendations for MNT in patients receiving ECMO are limited and, with some exceptions, based on an evidence base encompassing general patients who are critically ill. Consequently, clinician decision-making for MNT in patients receiving ECMO is unguided, which may further increase nutrition risk, culminating in iatrogenic malnutrition and ultimately affecting patient outcomes. The purpose of this article is to provide educational background and highlight specific points for MNT in adult patients receiving ECMO, which might serve as evidence-based guidance to develop institutional standard operating procedures and nutrition protocols for daily clinical practice.

Abstract
Although numerous observational studies associated underfeeding with poor outcome, recent randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have shown that early full nutritional support does not benefit critically ill patients and may induce dose-dependent harm. Some researchers have suggested that the absence of benefit in RCTs may be attributed to overrepresentation of patients deemed at low nutritional risk, or to a too low amino acid versus non-protein energy dose in the nutritional formula. However, these hypotheses have not been confirmed by strong evidence. RCTs have not revealed any subgroup benefiting from early full nutritional support, nor benefit from increased amino acid doses or from indirect calorimetry-based energy dosing targeted at 100% of energy expenditure. Mechanistic studies attributed the absence of benefit of early feeding to anabolic resistance and futile catabolism of extra provided amino acids, and to feeding-induced suppression of recovery-enhancing pathways such as autophagy and ketogenesis, which opened perspectives for fasting-mimicking diets and ketone supplementation. Yet, the presence or absence of an anabolic response to feeding cannot be predicted or monitored and likely differs over time and among patients. In the absence of such monitor, the value of indirect calorimetry seems obscure, especially in the acute phase of illness. Until now, large feeding RCTs have focused on interventions that were initiated in the first week of critical illness. There are no large RCTs that investigated the impact of different feeding strategies initiated after the acute phase and continued after discharge from the intensive care unit in patients recovering from critical illness.

Abstract
Close liaison with ICU-trained dietitians and early initiation of nutrition is a fundamental principle of care of critically ill patients- this should be done while monitoring closely for refeeding syndrome. Enteral nutrition delivered by volumetric pumps should be used where possible, though parenteral nutrition should be started early in patients with high nutritional risk factors. Malnutrition and loss of muscle mass are common in patients who are admitted to ICUs and are prognostic for patient-centred outcomes including complications and mortality. Obesity is part of that story, and isocaloric and high-protein provision of nutrition is important in this group of patients who comprise a growing proportion of people treated. Assessing protein stores and appropriate dosing is, however, challenging in all groups of patients. It would be beneficial to develop strategies to reduce muscle wasting as well; various strategies including amino acid supplementation, ketogenic nutrition and exercise have been trialled, but the quality of data has been inadequate to address this phenomenon. Nutritional targets are rarely achieved in practice, and all ICUs should incorporate clear guidelines to help address this. These should include local nutritional and fasting guidelines and for the management of feed intolerance, early access to post-pyloric feeding and a multidisciplinary framework to support the importance of nutritional education.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Current guidelines suggest the introduction of early nutrition support within the first 48 h of admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) for patients who cannot eat. In that context, we aimed to describe nutrition practices in the ICU and study the association between the introduction of early nutrition support (< 48 h) in the ICU and patient mortality at day 28 (D28) using data from a multicentre prospective cohort. METHODS The 'French-Speaking ICU Nutritional Survey' (FRANS) study was conducted in 26 ICUs in France and Belgium over 3 months in 2015. Adult patients with a predicted ICU length of stay > 3 days were consecutively included and followed for 10 days. Their mortality was assessed at D28. We investigated the association between early nutrition (< 48 h) and mortality at D28 using univariate and multivariate propensity-score-weighted logistic regression analyses. RESULTS During the study period, 1206 patients were included. Early nutrition support was administered to 718 patients (59.5%), with 504 patients receiving enteral nutrition and 214 parenteral nutrition. Early nutrition was more frequently prescribed in the presence of multiple organ failure and less frequently in overweight and obese patients. Early nutrition was significantly associated with D28 mortality in the univariate analysis (crude odds ratio (OR) 1.69, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.23-2.34) and propensity-weighted multivariate analysis (adjusted OR (aOR) 1.05, 95% CI 1.00-1.10). In subgroup analyses, this association was stronger in patients ≤ 65 years and with SOFA scores ≤ 8. Compared with no early nutrition, a significant association was found of D28 mortality with early enteral (aOR 1.06, 95% CI 1.01-1.11) but not early parenteral nutrition (aOR 1.04, 95% CI 0.98-1.11). CONCLUSIONS In this prospective cohort study, early nutrition support in the ICU was significantly associated with increased mortality at D28, particularly in younger patients with less severe disease. Compared to no early nutrition, only early enteral nutrition appeared to be associated with increased mortality. Such findings are in contrast with current guidelines on the provision of early nutrition support in the ICU and may challenge our current practices, particularly concerning patients at low nutrition risk.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Enteral nutrition (EN) is essential for critically ill patients. However, some patients will have enteral feeding intolerance (EFI) in the process of EN.
AIM To develop a clinical prediction model to predict the risk of EFI in patients receiving EN in the intensive care unit.
METHODS A prospective cohort study was performed. The enrolled patients’ basic information, medical status, nutritional support, and gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms were recorded. The baseline data and influencing factors were compared. Logistic regression analysis was used to establish the model, and the bootstrap resampling method was used to conduct internal validation.
RESULTS The sample cohort included 203 patients, and 37.93% of the patients were diagnosed with EFI. After the final regression analysis, age, GI disease, early feeding, mechanical ventilation before EN started, and abnormal serum sodium were identified. In the internal validation, 500 bootstrap resample samples were performed, and the area under the curve was 0.70 (95%CI: 0.63-0.77).
CONCLUSION This clinical prediction model can be applied to predict the risk of EFI.

Abstract
(1) Background: Studies on the long-term patterns of using vasopressors in patients with shock and their correlations with the risk of feeding intolerance (FI) are limited. This study aimed to characterize the norepinephrine equivalent dose (NEQ) trajectories and explore its correlations with FI in patients with shock. (2) Methods: This study prospectively enrolled patients with shock, who received vasopressors from August 2020 to June 2022. The Growth Mixed Model (GMM) was used to traverse longitudinal NEQ data at six-hour intervals and identify the latent trajectories of NEQ use in these patients. Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to examine the correlations of NEQ trajectories with FI. (3) Results: This study included a total of 210 patients with shock recruited from August 2020 to June 2022. Four trajectories of NEQ dose were identified and characterized by low-dose stable NEQ (L-NEQ, n = 98), moderate-dose stable NEQ (M-NEQ, n = 74), high-dose stable NEQ (H-NEQ, n = 21), and rapidly rising NEQ (R-NEQ, n = 17), with NEQ doses of 0.2, 0.4, 0.4, and 0.5 µg/kg/min at enteral nutrition (EN) initiation, respectively. The incidences of FI were 37.76%, 67.57%, 80.95%, and 76.47% in the L-NEQ, M-NEQ, H-NEQ, and R-NEQ groups, respectively (p < 0.001). As compared to the L-NEQ group, the risk of FI occurrence increased in the M-NEQ, H-NEQ, and R-NEQ groups (all p < 0.05). (4) Conclusions: The risk of FI was significantly associated with NEQ trajectories. It might be appropriate to initiate EN when the NEQ dose is stabilized below 0.2 µg/kg/min in patients with shock.

Abstract
Rarely the results of a study were expected so eagerly as the LOVIT trial, an acronym
for “Lessening Organ Dysfunction with Vitamin C” 1. This blinded multicentric randomised trial
(RCT) is a well-performed study 1 testing
high-dose intravenous vitamin C (IVVC) (50 mg/kg every 6 h
for 96hrs). With 872 patients, the trial is the largest so far. The results are
sobering, as the patients receiving IVVC had a worse primary composite outcome
compared to the placebo group: of note, the different components of the outcome
(death or persistent organ dysfunction), did not differ significantly when
considered individually 2.

Abstract
The gastrointestinal tract is one of the most complex organ systems of the human body. On the one hand, it forms the absorption surface for nutrients, but on the other hand it is also a barrier for toxins, food components and against up to 1014 commensal microorganisms. The complexity of the interplay between absorption, motility and immune functions of the gastrointestinal tract is particularly evident in critically ill patients. In this article, we review the latest updates on pathogenic relationships of motility disorders and diagnostic algorithms in intensive care patients. In addition to established therapies, new developments in the treatment of hypomotility are outlined.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Medical nutrition therapy may be associated with clinical outcomes in critically ill patients with prolonged intensive care unit (ICU) stay. We wanted to assess nutrition practices in European intensive care units (ICU) and their importance for clinical outcomes. METHODS Prospective multinational cohort study in patients staying in ICU ≥ 5 days with outcome recorded until day 90. Macronutrient intake from enteral and parenteral nutrition and non-nutritional sources during the first 15 days after ICU admission was compared with targets recommended by ESPEN guidelines. We modeled associations between three categories of daily calorie and protein intake (low: < 10 kcal/kg, < 0.8 g/kg; moderate: 10-20 kcal/kg, 0.8-1.2 g/kg, high: > 20 kcal/kg; > 1.2 g/kg) and the time-varying hazard rates of 90-day mortality or successful weaning from invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV). RESULTS A total of 1172 patients with median [Q1;Q3] APACHE II score of 18.5 [13.0;26.0] were included, and 24% died within 90 days. Median length of ICU stay was 10.0 [7.0;16.0] days, and 74% of patients could be weaned from invasive mechanical ventilation. Patients reached on average 83% [59;107] and 65% [41;91] of ESPEN calorie and protein recommended targets, respectively. Whereas specific reasons for ICU admission (especially respiratory diseases requiring IMV) were associated with higher intakes (estimate 2.43 [95% CI: 1.60;3.25] for calorie intake, 0.14 [0.09;0.20] for protein intake), a lack of nutrition on the preceding day was associated with lower calorie and protein intakes (- 2.74 [- 3.28; - 2.21] and - 0.12 [- 0.15; - 0.09], respectively). Compared to a lower intake, a daily moderate intake was associated with higher probability of successful weaning (for calories: maximum HR 4.59 [95% CI: 1.5;14.09] on day 12; for protein: maximum HR 2.60 [1.09;6.23] on day 12), and with a lower hazard of death (for calories only: minimum HR 0.15, [0.05;0.39] on day 19). There was no evidence that a high calorie or protein intake was associated with further outcome improvements. CONCLUSIONS Calorie intake was mainly provided according to the targets recommended by the active ESPEN guideline, but protein intake was lower. In patients staying in ICU ≥ 5 days, early moderate daily calorie and protein intakes were associated with improved clinical outcomes. Trial registration NCT04143503 , registered on October 25, 2019.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Gastrointestinal failure is a polymorphic syndrome with multiple causes. Managing the different situations from a practical, metabolic, and nutritional point of view is challenging, which the present review will try to address. RECENT FINDINGS Acute gastrointestinal injury (AGI) has been defined and has evolved into a concept of gastrointestinal dysfunction score (GIDS) built on the model of Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score, and ranging from 0 (no risk) to 4 (life threatening). But there is yet no specific, reliable and reproducible, biomarker linked to it. Evaluating the risk with the Nutrition Risk Screening (NRS) score is the first step whenever addressing nutrition therapy. Depending on the severity of the gastrointestinal failure and its clinical manifestations, nutritional management needs to be individualized but always including prevention of undernutrition and dehydration, and administration of target essential micronutrients. The use of fibers in enteral feeding solutions has gained acceptance and is even recommended based on microbiome findings. Parenteral nutrition whether alone or combined to enteral feeding is indicated whenever the intestine is unable to process the needs. SUMMARY The heterogeneity of gastrointestinal insufficiency precludes a uniform nutritional management of all critically ill patients but justifies its early detection and the implementation of individualized care.
