This case report provides insights on glycemic excursion and insulin action in a type 1 diabetic, even when both insulin and glucose are administered directly into circulation.
Dilemmas in feeding infants with intestinal failure: a neonatologist's perspective.
In this review, we discuss the causes of intestinal failure, parenteral nutrition strategies, enteral feeding initiation and advancement protocols, as well as the challenges in feeding an infant with intestinal failure.
Hepatic dysfunction in patients receiving intravenous lipid emulsions.
The review addresses recent developments in intravenous lipid emulsion administration, including the problem of intestinal failure associated liver disease that can occur with the use of intravenous lipid emulsions in children and adults, and newer intravenous lipid emulsions that may minimize and reverse intestinal failure associated liver disease

Nutritional and medical approaches to intestinal failure.
Presentation of several important papers were published between January 2021– October 2022 that relate to the nutritional and medical management of intestinal failure and rehabilitation.
Total Fluid Administration and Weight Loss during the First 2 Weeks in Infants Randomized to Early Enteral Feeding after Extremely Preterm Birth.
A randomized trial reporting the effects of the early progression of feeding volumes on fluid balance and neurodevelopment among infants born extremely preterm.
Impact of early nutrition and feeding route on clinical outcomes of neurocritically ill patients.
Investigation whether early nutrition is associated with clinical outcomes in neurocritically ill patients.
Factors associated with enteral nutrition tolerance after trauma laparotomy of the small bowel and mesenteric injuries by blunt trauma
This study identifies the factors that affect early postoperative small bowel obstruction and the date of tolerance to solid food and defecation after surgery in patients with blunt bowel and/or mesenteric injury.
Intermittent bolus versus continuous feeding in children receiving an enteral formula with food derived ingredients: A national multicentre retrospective study.
This study aims to evaluate the tolerance of different feeding modes in pediatric patients fed with an enteral formula with food derived ingredients.
Associations between enteral nutrition and outcomes in the SUP-ICU trial: Protocol for exploratory post hoc analyses.
The SUP-ICU trial results will be used to assess if enteral nutrition is associated with GI bleeding event rates.
Nutrition for the high-risk surgical patient, when they need it most: Question and answer session.
Based on the case of a patient with preoperative nutrition risk who will need to undergo timely cancer resectional surgery, speakers presenting at the ASPEN 2022 Preconference discussed novel strategies to assess for nutrition risk, enhanced recovery after surgery, and preoperative and postoperative nutrition management in these often complex surgical patients.
