  2. 1. The impact of nutrition on growth, biomarkers, and health outcomes in preterm infants

    Author : Cornelia Späth; Magnus Domellöf; Elisabeth Stoltz Sjöström; Deborah O’Connor; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Preterm infant; parenteral nutrition; energy intake; nutrient intakes; postnatal growth; electrolyte imbalances; sodium supply; hypernatremia; intraventricular hemorrhage; pediatrik; Pediatrics; Nutrition; näringslära;

    Abstract : Introduction: Nutrients play a crucial role for growth and brain development after preterm birth. Meeting the nutritional needs of preterm infants is challenging. Particularly, the most immature infants have a high risk of malnutrition and poor growth during hospital care. READ MORE

  4. 2. Intestinal Bypass and Total Parenteral Nutrition: Changes in Gut Function and Morphology

    Author : Mikael Ekelund; Lund Kirurgi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; traumatology; Kirurgi; ortopedi; traumatologi; orthopaedics; Surgery; Gastroenterologi; Gastro-enterology; Fysiologi; Physiology; total parenteral nutrition; supersensitivity; plasticity; intestinal bypass; interstitial cells of Cajal; goblet cells; eosinophils; adaptation; enteric nervous system;

    Abstract : Abolition of enteral nutrition is sometimes required in severe illness. The primary aim of the present work has been to elucidate possible changes in intestinal morphology and motor function in absence of enteral nutrition. Total absence of enteral nutrition in an isolated intestinal segment was created by bypassing the distal ileum in a rat model. READ MORE

  6. 4. Fat metabolism during total parenteral nutrition: A biochemical and ultra-structural study

    Author : Bengt Roth; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Anaesthesiology; Intravenous Fat Emulsion - Lipid Metabolism - Lipoprotein lipase - Kupffer cells - - Histology - Fatty liver - Adverse reactions - Haemophagocytosis; intensive care; Anestesiologi; intensivvård;

    Abstract : This thesis evaluates alterations in lipid metabolism and Kupffer cell morphology seen during total parenteral nutrition in healthy rats. During infusion of lipid emulsions, cholesterol and phospholipids accumulated in non-high density lipoproteins, while high density lipoproteins were enriched in triglycerides. READ MORE

  7. 5. Effects of Total Parenteral Nutrition on the Exocrine and Endocrine Pancreas. An Experimental Study

    Abstract : During total parenteral nutrition (TPN) adequate nutrition is provided intravenously and the enteral route is bypassed. The integrity of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, however, is dependent on the passage of food through it. This thesis deals with the effects of TPN on the pancreas and the parotid glands. READ MORE
