Home parenteral nutrition with an omega-3-fatty-acid-enriched MCT/LCT lipid emulsion in patients with chronic intestinal failure (the HOME study):study protocol for a randomized, controlled, multicenter, international clinical trial [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Home parenteral nutrition (HPN) is a life-preserving therapy for patients with chronic intestinal failure (CIF) indicated for patients who cannot achieve their nutritional requirements by enteral intake.

Glutamine in critical care:current evidence from systematic reviews [PDF]
Glutamine, the most abundant amino acid in the body, is thought to become conditionally essential in critical illness. Some of the important roles for glutamine are as a carrier for inter-organ N, a preferred fuel for enterocytes and cells of the immune ...

Intestinal gene expression in pigs: effects of reduced feed intake during weaning and potential impact of dietary components [PDF]
The weaning transition is characterised by morphological, histological and microbial changes, often leading to weaning-associated disorders. These intestinal changes can partly be ascribed to the lack of luminal nutrition arising from the reduced feed ...

Preoperative Cytopenia in Patients Affected by High‐Risk Neuroblastoma: Just a Matter of Platelets?
ABSTRACT Background and Aims In patients affected by high‐risk neuroblastoma (HR‐NB), complete macroscopic resection (CMR) is associated with better outcomes. These patients are often cytopenic due to intensive induction regimens. The aim of the present study is to assess the impact of preoperative cytopenia on surgical outcome in patients with HR‐NB ...

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)
