摘要:

The underlying causative agent in the majority of patients with chronic liver disease is ethanol; the rest of the cases are largely viral in aetiology (hepatitis B or C viruses). Nutrition supplementation improves the quality of life and decreases morbidity in chronic liver disease, but evidence that it prolongs long-term survival is lacking. The situation is very different in chronic liver disease patients who receive a liver transplant, however, with better pretransplantation nutrition status predicting a distinctly improved survival after transplantation.

摘要:

Desk-top microcomputers and total parenteral nutrition grew up together, and in their early days there was considerable progress in both camps. Since that time, the power of computing devices has increased dramatically, as has their ability to share information both between individual systems and worldwide through facilities such as the Internet and e-mail. Although there are some signs of continuing progress, to date there appears to be little evidence in peer-reviewed journals that this increased power is being utilized or that the vision of the pioneers in this area has been realized.

摘要:

Children account for 15-20% of home parenteral nutrition programmes. Underlying irreversible intestinal diseases lead to potential indications for intestinal transplantation. Therefore, new controversial issues are timing for referring children for transplantation, and comparison between home parenteral nutrition and transplantation in terms of costs and quality of life.
