Task: Question Generation
Input (English): The short cold ischemic tolerance of the gut is a major problem in small bowel transplantation. We have shown that intestinal lipid administration is beneficial during systemic inflammation like sepsis.', 'Rats were intestinally infused with either water or 1% olive oil for 12 hours. The small bowel was removed and stored in HTK solution on ice. At t = 0, t = 60, t = 120, t = 180, t = 240, t = 300, t = 360, t = 420, and t = 480 minutes, a tissue sample of the gut was fixed, stained, and analyzed by three independent observers. Damage score was calculated (0 = no damage, 1 = minor damage, 2 = major damage, 3 = loss of structure) for integrity of the mucosa, integrity of the basal membrane of the mucosa, and integrity of villy. The damage score was allocated when all three observers agreed on the same or a higher damage score.', 'In all control animals minor damage for the integrity of the basal membrane occurred within 60 minutes, but in only 50% of the lipid-treated rats. In all control rats, major damage for both integrity of mucosa and villi occurred within 300 minutes or less, but only in 50% of the lipid-treated rats. In all control rats, the structure of the villi was completely lost within 480 minutes or less, whereas only 50% of the lipid treated animals reached maximal damage scores for either mucosa or villi.
Output (English): Does intestinal lipid absorption increase cold ischemia of the small bowel in rats?
