| Popis: | Plasma endotoxin-like activity, tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) concentrations, core body temperature, and liver functions were measured before and after enteral feeding in children who had been deprived of enteral feeding for 5 days because of their illness. Transient endotoxemia and elevations in plasma TNFα concentrations occurred. Core body temperature, aspartate aminotransferase, alamine aminotransferase, and bilirubin concentrations were normal in patients who had elevated plasma endotoxin-like activity. Transient endotoxemia following enteral feeding may be due to the translocation from the gastrointestinal (GI) tract as a result of increased mesenteric circulation and peristalsis. No clinical consequences were noted despite transient endotoxemia. The transient endotoxemia is not due to the immature GI tract; instead, it results from enteral feeding following the deprivation of enteral feeds. |
