Abstract:
Objectives:To evaluate the effect of early enteral nutrition(EEN) on the structure and function of the gut, the bacterial and endotoxin translocation. Methods:SAP model was induced by injecting 1 ml/kg of combined solution of 5% sodium taurocholate and trypsin into the pancreas via pancreatic duct.15 dogs were divided into PN group and EEN group.Systemic plasma endotoxin levels was quantified.Both portal and systemic blood sample were obtained before and 1?4?7 d following SAP,and cultured for aerobic as well as anaerobic bacterial growth.Specimens of tissue from mesentery lymph nodes,lung and pulmonary portal nodes and pancreas were removed,weighed and homogenized at the 7th day. Results:The levels of systemic plasma endotoxin and the magnitude of bacterial translocation to the portal and cycle blood and distant organs were significantly reduced the protein and DNA content of the small intestine and colon increased,and the height of the villi and the thickness of mucosa and whole bowel wall of the intestinel and colon improved in EEN group as compared with those in PN group. Conclusions:We conclude that EEN can improve gut metabolism,decrease the extent of mucosal atrophy,and assist in the maintenance of the mucosal barrier function.It is effective touse EEN in severe acute pancreatitis.
