Greater Protein and Energy Intake May Be Associated With Improved Mortality in Higher Risk Critically Ill Patients: A Multicenter, Multinational Observational Study*

TL;DR: Greater nutritional intake is associated with lower mortality and faster time to discharge alive in high-risk, longer stay patients but not significantly so in nutritionally low-risk patients.

The Use of Visceral Proteins as Nutrition Markers: An ASPEN Position Paper

TL;DR: There is an association between inflammation and malnutrition, however, not between malnutrition and visceral-protein levels, so serum albumin and prealbumin should not serve as proxy measures of total body protein or total muscle mass and should not be used as nutrition markers.

TL;DR: The gastroenterologist endoscopist is an asset to the Nutrition Support Team and should participate in providing optimal nutrition therapy to the hospitalized adult patient.

Nutritional risk screening (NRS 2002): a new method based on an analysis of controlled clinical trials.

TL;DR: The screening system appears to be able to distinguish between trials with a positive effect vs no effect, and it can therefore probably also identify patients who are likely to benefit from nutritional support.
