Journal ArticleDOI
Probiotics up-regulate MUC-2 mucin gene expression in a Caco-2 cell-culture model.
Aladdein Mattar,Daniel H. Teitelbaum,Robert A. Drongowski,F. Yongyi,C. M. Harmon,Arnold G. Coran +5 more
TL;DR: Enteral probiotics such as Lactobacillus casei GG may bind to specific receptor sites on the enterocyte and stimulate the up-regulation of MUC-2, resulting in increased inhibition of BT.
Journal ArticleDOI
Delayed Versus Immediate Surgery In Acute Appendicitis: Do We Need to Operate During the Night?
Dani Yardeni,Ronald B. Hirschl,Robert A. Drongowski,Daniel H. Teitelbaum,James D. Geiger,Arnold G. Coran +5 more
TL;DR: Delayed management of acute nonperforated appendicitis allows greater efficiency and effective use of physician and hospital resources, including decreased resident involvement in operations during the night.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Analysis of Factors Contributing to the Development of Total Parenteral Nutrition-Induced Cholestasis
TL;DR: There appears to be a direct correlation between increasing severity of cholestatic jaundice and duration of TPN, and this review does add a new parameter to the various causative factors suggested, namely the number of operative procedures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lack of enteral nutrition—effects on the intestinal immune system
TL;DR: This study demonstrates that the major factor responsible for TPN-induced BT and IEL-changes is the lack of enteral feeding and not the administration of the TPN solution itself.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acute kidney injury in congenital diaphragmatic hernia requiring extracorporeal life support: an insidious problem
TL;DR: There is a high incidence of AKI in patients with CDH requiring ECLS, and when it progresses to failure, it is associated with higher mortality, increased EclS duration, and increased ventilator days.
