Abstract:
Objective To probe into the effect of the enteral nutrition added with lactobacillus on gastric bacteria of rats with severe brain injury. Methods Severe brain injury was made in rats that were then fed with enteral nutrition (3-9 entire nutrients), lactobacillus (3-9 entire nutrients + lactobacillus) and synbiotics (3-9 entire nutrients + lactobacillus + fiber) respectively. Gastric body and gastric antrum mucosa were collected at day 1, 3 and 7 after injury to detect the change of the gastric bacteria. Results DCCE analysis showed less bacteria in sham operation group. On the first day after severe brain injury, the flora bands were increased remarkably but the number of bacteria was decreased in three groups. The similarity of denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis ( DGGE) map patterns was 65% , 64% and 53% respectively in the enteral nutrition group, lactobacillus group and synbiotics group, with no significant difference in regard of the diversity index. On the third day after severe brain injury, the flora bands showed a tendency of decrease, with the similarity of denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) map patterns for 72% , 58% and 62% respectively. The richness and diversity of total bacteria in the lactobacillus group was remarkably lower than that in the enteral nutrition group and synbiotics group (P<0.01). On the seventh day after SHI, the flora bands were decreased in three groups, with the minimum number of the bacteria. The similarity of denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis ( DGGE) map patterns was 61% , 51% and 58% respectively, with higher richness and diversity of total bacteria in the synbiotics group compared with the other groups. Conclusion Lactobacillus can help improve gastric bacteria disturbance of rats with severe brain injury. In the meantime, addition of the lactobacillus is better than addition of the synbiotics.
