ObjectiveTo investigate the changes of diamine oxidase(DAO) and endotoxin(ET) during the treatment of systemic inflammatory response syndrome with human growth hormone and the relationship between human growth hormone and intestinal mucosal barrier injury. MethodsOne hundred and fortysix patients with systemic inflammatory response syndrome were randomly divided into operative group and nonoperative group, which were again randomly divided into the study group and control group.Plasma concentration of DAO and ET were determined before the treatment and 1 week after the treatment.ResultsPlasma concentration of DAO and ET in study group decreased after treatment with significant difference (P＜0.05，P＜0.01).ConclusionHuman growth hormone can protect intestinal mucosa barrier.
Objective To explore the protective effect of early enteral nutrition on intestinal mucosa barrier in patients with esophageal carcinoma after operation. Methods Fifty six patients with esophageal carcinoma whose weight decreased more than 20% before operation in three months were divided into enteral nutrition group ( n =30) and parenteral nutrition group ( n =26). Plasma concentration of lipopolysaccharide(LPS), tumor necrosis factor (TNF), gastrin, glutamine, and ratio of lactulose and mannitol (L/M) were measured on the 1st, 4th, 8th day after operation respectively. Results Weight loss and infectious complication in enteral nutrition group were less than those in parenteral nutrition group after operation ( P lt;0.01, 0.05). On the 4th and 8th day after operation,the level of LPS,TNF, and L/M were lower in enteral nutrition group than those in parenteral nutrition group ( P lt;0 01), the values of gastrin and glutamine were higher in enteral nutrition group than those in parente...更多ral nutrition group ( P lt;0 01). Conclusion Enteral nutrition can protect the intestinal mucosa barrier and decrease infectious complication after operation.
