1.	Neoplasms (Cancer) 03/01/1998 - "Prospective randomly controlled trials have failed to demonstrate the clinical efficacy of providing nutritional support to most cancer patients in terms of morbidity, mortality, and duration of hospitalization" 06/15/1988 - "The fact that nutritional support falls short of its goal may explain why no improvement in tumor response to therapy has been described in most studies." 05/01/1996 - "Standard nutritional support (both enteral and parenteral) is not always effective in significantly improving outcome in malnourished cancer patients, due to characteristic changes in host metabolism" 01/01/1987 - "Although supplemental alimentation is beneficial in malnourished patients, it is unclear whether malnourished cancer bearing patients are successfully replenished with similar nutritional support" 05/01/1982 - "A growing body of work has been addressed to the hypothesis that because patients with cancer who have poor nutritional status have a worse prognosis, increased nutritional support in these patients will result in better tolerance of surgical interventions, chemotherapy and radiation therapy, and a better outcome from the cancer" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...
2.	Critical Illness (Critically Ill) 05/01/2004 - "SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: Early nutritional support has been found to be beneficial in critically ill patients" 04/01/1999 - "RESULTS: The provision of nutritional support supplemented with key nutrients to patients with critical illness resulted in a decrease in infectious complications when compared with patients receiving standard nutritional support and a significant reduction in overall hospital stay" 06/01/1996 - "Improved nutrition assessment parameters are required to better monitor the response to nutritional support in critically ill patients." 04/01/2000 - "Nasoenteric feeding tubes are a safe and effective means for providing nutritional support to the critically ill patient" 12/01/2006 - "The acutely ventilated patient that is likely to still be intubated by day three is a classic example of the critically ill patient who has the potential to achieve positive outcomes with nutritional support" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...
3.	Wounds and Injuries (Trauma) 06/01/1994 - "In selected malnourished or severely injured patients, early nutritional support has been shown to improve outcome and decrease the incidence of infectious complications following major surgery or trauma" 03/01/2006 - "Using dietetic assistants to improve the outcome of hip fracture: a randomised controlled trial of nutritional support in an acute trauma ward." 10/01/1986 - "Enteral versus parenteral nutritional support following laparotomy for trauma: a randomized prospective trial." 01/01/1984 - "A randomized study was initiated to assess the benefit of early nutritional support in patients with abdominal trauma" 01/01/1983 - "Having identified the high-risk trauma patient, we initiated a prospective randomized study to assess the cost-benefit of early nutritional support" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...
4.	Sepsis (Septicemia) 10/01/1986 - "This is attributed to improved "para-surgical" care, appropriate nutritional support and early and aggressive control of sepsis" 02/01/2005 - "Previous publications have described the overall methodological quality of sepsis trials as "poor." Nutritional support studies were significantly worse than sepsis trials in all aspects of methodological quality, and there were few improvements noted over time" 02/01/2005 - "Compared with sepsis trials, nutritional support studies were significantly less likely to use blinding (32 of 40 versus 35 of 111, P < 0.001) or present an intention-to-treat analysis (37 of 40 versus 64 of 111, P < 0.001)" 01/01/1984 - "The Authors base the description of the relevant aspects of metabolic-nutritional support in sepsis on the results of studies performed in their Clinical Research Center and in other Centers." 04/01/2006 - "After confirmation and characterization of the injury by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and cholangiogram, assessment for undrained collections by computed tomography scan, control of sepsis and coagulopathy, and nutritional support, surgical repair was undertaken" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...
5.	Malnutrition 11/01/1986 - "Nutritional assessment has three main aims: to define the type and severity of malnutrition; to identify high risk patients; to monitor the efficacy of nutritional support" 12/09/1999 - "Provision of nutritional support has been shown to improve patient outcome in those at risk of malnutrition; therefore, the detection and treatment of malnutrition is paramount" 10/01/2004 - "The objective of the present study was to assess the cost of malnutrition and related comorbidities among elderly patients living in the community and to determine the impact of nutritional support practice on these outcomes" 03/01/1996 - "While long term studies are required to determine if nutritional support will prevent stunting, these results underscore its central role in preventing nutritional deficiencies and in promoting normal growth in thalassaemic children." 01/01/1995 - "Over the past two decades, clinical studies have provided convincing evidence that early nutritional support benefits metabolically stressed surgical patients by preventing acute protein malnutrition" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...
