Abstrakt: Rationale: Short Bowel Syndrome (SBS) is the major cause of chronic intestinal failure (IF) and requires parenteral nutrition (PN). After bowel resection, some patients develop spontaneous intestinal adaptations and hyperphagia. Since promoting oral energy intake contributes to PN weaning, this study aims to characterize hyperphagia in patients with SBS and identify its determinants.
Methods: This observational retrospective study included adult patients with SBS who were followed at an expert PN center between 2006 and 2019, with at least 2 separate nutritional assessments. Exclusion criteria were: active neoplasia, alternative treatment for IF or appetite-affecting medication. Resting energy expenditure (REE) was calculated for each patient using the Harris-Benedict equation. Food Intake Ratio (FIR) was calculated by dividing the highest caloric oral intake by REE and hyperphagia was defined as FIR >1.5.
Results: Among the 59 patients with SBS included in this study, 82.6% had a FIR >1.5, including 15.5% with a FIR >3. Protein supplied approximately 16% of total energy intake while fat and carbohydrates provided 36% and 48%, respectively. The FIR was independent of gender and whether patients received oral nutrition alone (n = 28) or combined with PN (n = 31). The FIR was also not associated with residual small bowel length, nor the proportion of preserved colon. However, it was negatively correlated with the body mass index (BMI) of these patients (r = -0.533, p < 0.001), whether they had PN support or not. Patients with either a jejuno-colonic (n = 31) or a jejuno-ileal anastomosis (n = 9), had a significantly higher FIR compared to those with an end-jejunostomy (n = 18) (p < 0.05). However, no difference was found in the proportion of calories provided by protein, fat and carbohydrate between the 3 patients groups divided according to the SBS anatomical type.
Conclusion: A large majority of patients with SBS exhibited a hyperphagia regardless of PN dependence or bowel length, which was inversely correlated with BMI. The presence of the colon in continuity, thus in contact with the nutritional flow, seems to favor a higher oral intake which is beneficial for the nutritional autonomy of patients. This raises the question of a role of colonic microbiota and hormones in this behavior. Finally, this study also revealed an unexpected discrepancy between recommended energy intakes from protein, fat and carbohydrate and the actual intake of patients with SBS.
