BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: Gastrointestinal hormones modulate gut function in response to enteral nutrition. @entity1 with a @entity154 with @entity393 either pre-or postnatal, who are on total parenteral nutrition for prolonged periods after surgery, are especially prone to a disturbed secretion of gut hormones. The aim of this study was to determine whether circulating gut hormones were altered in these @entity1 and to collect baseline data for future studies in short bowel @entity1 using different enteral substrates. METHODS: @entity8243 , @entity8586 , and peptide YY were measured in 14 operated neonates who had a @entity154 during @entity4321 and introduction of enteral nutrition. None of the neonates had a short bowel. Fourteen neonates who underwent surgery for other major @entity154 served as age-matched controls. Gut hormones were measured with radioimmunoassays. RESULTS: Postprandial gut hormone values were higher than basal gut hormone values within both groups. Compared with the controls, postprandial @entity8243 and @entity8586 were significantly higher in the @entity1 . CONCLUSIONS: Neonates with a @entity154 in the absence of a short bowel have a similar secretion pattern of gastrointestinal hormones as neonates with a structurally normal intestinal tract, both during @entity4321 and enteral nutrition.
