These results suggest that Mn status is elevated in these patients. Manganese supplementation should be used with caution in patients receiving long-term PN, and attention should be paid to the Mn content of multi-TE supplements.

Within therapeutic ranges, APAP is harmless to the liver irrespective of dietary fat composition. IV use of fish oil did not increase APAP-induced hepatotoxicity, but animals fed a fish oil-based diet were more susceptible, rather than resistant, to APAP-induced hepatotoxicity.

Patients with intestinal failure and short bowel syndrome usually require chronic parenteral nutrition (PN). PN is associated with risks, including infections, vascular thrombosis, and liver disease. PN-associated liver disease (PNALD) can progress from steatosis to chronic hepatitis and ultimately to cirrhosis. The etiology of PNALD is not complet...

Probiotic and synbiotic nutrition strategies reduce the incidence of postoperative sepsis in the elective general surgery setting. These effects appear more pronounced with the use of synbiotics. High-powered, mechanistic studies are now required for the optimization of pro- and prebiotic regimens to further improve their efficacy.

Short bowel syndrome (SBS) is characterized by nutrient malabsorption and occurs following surgical resection, congenital defect, or disease of the bowel. The severity of SBS depends on the length and anatomy of the bowel resected and the health of the remaining tissue. During the 2 years following resection, the remnant bowel undergoes an adaptati...
