The use of this method of feeding is assessed on an individual basis taking into considera - Enteral tube feeding for older people with advanced dementia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 15-Apr-2009
The use of enteral tube feeding for patients with advanced dementia who have poor nutritional intake is common. In one US survey 34% of 186,835 nursing home residents with advanced cognitive impairment were tube fed. Potential benefits or harms of this pr - Enteral tube feeding for people with severe dementia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 13-Aug-2021
The balance of benefits and harms associated with enteral tube feeding for people with severe dementia is not clear. An increasing number of guidelines highlight the lack of evidenced benefit and potential risks of enteral tube feeding. In some areas of t - Enteral versus parenteral nutrition and enteral versus a combination of enteral and parenteral nutrition for adults in the intensive care unit
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 8-Jun-2018
Critically ill people are at increased risk of malnutrition. Acute and chronic illness, trauma and inflammation induce stress-related catabolism, and drug-induced adverse effects may reduce appetite or increase nausea and vomiting. In addition, patient ma - Enteral versus parenteral nutrition for acute pancreatitis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 20-Jan-2010
Acute pancreatitis creates a catabolic stress state promoting a systemic inflammatory response and nutritional deterioration. Adequate supply of nutrients plays an important role in recovery. Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) has been standard practice for - Enteral zinc supplementation for prevention of morbidity and mortality in preterm neonates
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 12-Mar-2021
Preterm and low birth weight infants are born with low stores in zinc, which is a vital trace element for growth, cell differentiation and immune function. Preterm infants are at risk of zinc deficiency during the postnatal period of rapid growth. Systema - Environmental and behavioural interventions for reducing physical activity limitation and preventing falls in older people with visual impairment
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 3-Sep-2020
Impairment of vision is associated with a decrease in activities of daily living. Avoidance of physical activity in older adults with visual impairment can lead to functional decline and is an important risk factor for falls. The rate of falls and fractur - Environmental and behavioural modifications for improving food and fluid intake in people with dementia
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 18-Jul-2018
Weight loss, malnutrition and dehydration are common problems for people with dementia. Environmental modifications such as, change of routine, context or ambience at mealtimes, or behavioural modifications, such as education or training of people with de - Environmental enrichment for stroke and other non‐progressive brain injury
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 23-Nov-2021
Rehabilitation is effective for recovery after stroke and other non-progressive brain injuries but it is unclear if the rehabilitation environment itself, outside of limited therapy hours, is maximally conducive to recovery. Environmental enrichment is a - Environmental interventions for preventing falls in older people living in the community
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 10-Mar-2023
Falls and fall-related injuries are common. A third of community-dwelling people aged over 65 years fall each year. Falls can have serious consequences including restricting activity or institutionalisation.

Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 5-Feb-2016
Mucopolysaccharidosis II, also known as Hunter syndrome, is a rare, X-linked disease caused by a deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme iduronate-2-sulfatase, which catalyses a step in the catabolism of glycosaminoglycans.
