Benefits and harm of probiotics and synbiotics in adult critically ill patients. A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials with trial sequential analysis

Zheng-Yii Lee et al.

Summary: Several systematic reviews have shown that probiotics administration is safe and reduces the rates of ventilator-associated pneumonia and diarrhea in critically ill patients. However, a recent large multicenter trial found that probiotics were not efficacious and increased adverse events. Therefore, an updated meta-analysis is needed to confirm the safety and efficacy of probiotic use in critically ill patients.

Effects of dietary fibre on enteral feeding intolerance and clinical outcomes in critically ill patients: A meta-analysis

Ting Liu et al.

Summary: This study aimed to explore the effects of dietary fibre on enteral feeding intolerance and clinical outcomes in critically ill patients. The results showed that the dietary fibre group had a significantly decreased risk of diarrhea, regurgitation, vomiting, constipation, and mortality, as well as shorter time to reach full enteral nutrition, duration of intensive care unit stay, and hospital stay.

Impact of abdominal massage on enteral nutrition complications in adult critically ill patients: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Xinbo Wang et al.

Summary: This study summarized and evaluated the effect of abdominal massage on enteral nutrition complications in adult critically ill patients. The results showed that abdominal massage can reduce gastric residual volume, vomiting, abdominal distension, and ventilator-associated pneumonia. However, further randomized controlled trials are needed to confirm these findings due to the limited number of reviewed studies, small number of patients examined, and short intervention periods.

Development of the Gastrointestinal Dysfunction Score (GIDS) for critically ill patients-A prospective multicenter observational study (iSOFA study)

Annika Reintam Blaser et al.

Summary: A new five grade Gastrointestinal Dysfunction Score (GIDS) was developed for assessing GI dysfunction in adult critically ill patients, which was found to be independently associated with 28-and 90-day mortality when added to SOFA total score. The clinical usefulness of this score needs further prospective validation.
