Protracted diarrhea and malnutrition in infancy: Changes in intestinal morphology and disaccharidase activities during treatment with total intravenous nutrition or oral elemental diets
TLDR
Two therapeutic regimens were compared in 16 infants with protracted diarrhea and malnutrition suggesting that patients given enteral feedings early tended to have a more rapid return of intestinal function and of some intestinal enzymes.About:

1. Guidelines on Paediatric Parenteral Nutrition of the European Society of Paediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (ESPGHAN) and the European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (ESPEN), Supported by the European Society of Paediatric Research (ESPR).
TL;DR: These Guidelines for Paediatric Parenteral Nutrition have been developed as a mutual project of the European Society for paediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition and the European society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism.

Milk- and soy-induced enterocolitis of infancy. Clinical features and standardization of challenge
TL;DR: All of the infants (controls or patients with gastrointestinal allergy) who failed to meet the criteria proposed for a positive response to a single acute challenge of formula, also tolerated the formula of challenge on a long-term basis.
Journal Article
The treatment of acute diarrhea in children. An historical and physiological perspective.
TL;DR: The method of therapy recommended in this paper has several important departures from traditional teaching and may be readily available to the remote, under-served areas of the world where most of the morbidity exists and useful as well to more sophisticated settings.
Journal ArticleDOI
The treatment of acute diarrhea in children. An historical and physiological perspective.
TL;DR: A review examines the historical, physiological, clinical, and epidemiohogical evidence to support a method of therapy for children's diarrhea that may be recommended for general acceptance as discussed by the authors.

Randomised controlled study of clinical outcome following trophic feeding
R J McClure,Simon J. Newell +1 more
TL;DR: Trophic feeding improves clinical outcome in ill preterm infants requiring parenteral nutrition and leads to improved energy intake, weight gain, milk tolerance, less sepsis and earlier hospital discharge.

Method for assay of intestinal disaccharidases.
TL;DR: A unit for disaccharidase activity is defined that is in accord with recommendations made by the Joint Sub-Commission on Clinical Enzyme Units of the International Unions of Biochemistry and of Pure and Applied Chemistry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hereditary fructose intolerance. An inborn defect of hepatic fructose-1-phosphate splitting aldolase.
TL;DR: Evidence is presented to show that a large part of the fructose assimilated by these patients may be metabolized by adipose tissue, and the earlier hypothesis of a primary defect in fructose-1-phosphate splitting liver aldolase has been proved by direct enzyme analysis of liver tissue of both patients.

TL;DR: The review initially attempts to depict the metabolic state during fasting, thus dramatizing the need for parenteral nutrition, especially in the infant.

Action of Gastrin on Gastrointestinal Structure and Function
Leonard R. Johnson,Lenard M. Lichtenberger,Edward M. Copeland,Stanley J. Dudrick,Gilbert A. Castro +4 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that pentagastrin prevents the changes in gastrointestinal structure and function caused by the absence of food from the gut and that the trophic action of gastrin is necessary for the maintenance of the functional and structural integrity of the gastrointestinal tract.
