谷氨酰胺和生长激素对短肠综合征患者肠道代偿作用

目的探讨谷氨酰胺和生长激素对短肠综合征(SBS)患者的肠道代偿作用。方法26例短肠综合征患者残余小肠长度为0～100(中位数42.5)cm,手术后接受肠外营养(PN)支持3-52个月,联合应用生长激素(GH)(0.10±0.06)mg·kg-1·d-1和谷氨酰胺(GLN)(0.30±0.17)g·kg-1·d-1进行肠道促代偿治疗。结果26例接受GH加GLN治疗的SBS患者,其中9例(34.6%)治疗后近期内完全摆脱PN;8例(30.8%)经治疗后明显减少了PN用量,从每周需要PN(6.0±1.0)d下降至(4.2±1.0)d,每周PN需要量从(13.6±5.2)L降至(8.2±3.3)L;9例(34.6%)在治疗后仍依赖PN维持。结论经过合适的营养支持和肠道促代偿治疗,大多数短肠综合征患者残留肠道能充分代偿,完全摆脱PN或减少PN用量,长期健康生存。

Effect of glutamine and growth hormone on adaptation in short bowel syndrome

OBJECTIVE: To assess the effects of parenteral glutamine and growth hormone supplementation on gut adaptation for patients with short bowel syndrome. METHODS: Twenty-six patients [male 15, female 11, aged (39 +/- 23) years] with short bowel syndrome received parenteral nutrition (PN) 3-52 months after surgical resection. The median length of remnant small intestine was 42.5(0-100)cm. All patients received growth hormone (0.10+/- 0.06) mg.kg(-1).d(-1) plus glutamine (0.30 +/- 0.17) mg.kg(-1).d(-1) for two or three weeks. RESULTS: Among the 26 patients, PN was not required soon after treatment in 34.6% (n=9) of the patients, the frequency and volume of PN decreased from (6.0 +/- 1.0) d to (4.2 +/- 1.0) d, from (13.6 +/- 5.2) L per week to (8.2 +/- 3.3) L per week respectively in 30.8% (n=8) of the patients,while 34.6% (n=9) still required PN after treatment. CONCLUSION: The combined administration of glutamine and growth hormone can promote remnant intestinal adaptation in short bowel patients.
