Using naso- and oro-intestinal catheters in physiological research for intestinal delivery and sampling in vivo: practical and technical aspects to be considered. 

Mara PH van Trijp, Ellen Wilms, Melany Ríos-Morales, Ad Am Masclee, Robert Jan Brummer, Ben Jm Witteman, Freddy J Troost, Guido Jej Hooiveld

doi : 10.1093/ajcn/nqab149

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, Volume 114, Issue 3, September 2021, Pages 843–861

Intestinal catheters have been used for decades in human nutrition, physiology, pharmacokinetics, and gut microbiome research, facilitating the delivery of compounds directly into the intestinal lumen or the aspiration of intestinal fluids in human subjects. Such research provides insights about (local) dynamic metabolic and other intestinal luminal processes, but working with catheters might pose challenges to biomedical researchers and clinicians. Here, we provide an overview of practical and technical aspects of applying naso- and oro-intestinal catheters for delivery of compounds and sampling luminal fluids from the jejunum, ileum, and colon in vivo. The recent literature was extensively reviewed, and combined with experiences and insights we gained through our own clinical trials. We included 60 studies that involved a total of 720 healthy subjects and 42 patients. Most of the studies investigated multiple intestinal regions (24 studies), followed by studies investigating only the jejunum (21 studies), ileum (13 studies), or colon (2 studies). The ileum and colon used to be relatively inaccessible regions in vivo. Custom-made state-of-the-art catheters are available with numerous options for the design, such as multiple lumina, side holes, and inflatable balloons for catheter progression or isolation of intestinal segments. These allow for multiple controlled sampling and compound delivery options in different intestinal regions. Intestinal catheters were often used for delivery (23 studies), sampling (10 studies), or both (27 studies). Sampling speed decreased with increasing distance from the sampling syringe to the specific intestinal segment (i.e., speed highest in duodenum, lowest in ileum/colon). No serious adverse events were reported in the literature, and a dropout rate of around 10% was found for these types of studies. This review is highly relevant for researchers who are active in various research areas and want to expand their research with the use of intestinal catheters in humans in vivo.

Increasing the availability and utilization of reliable data on population micronutrient (MN) status globally: the MN Data Generation Initiative 

Kenneth H Brown, Sophie E Moore, Sonja Y Hess, Christine M McDonald, Kerry S Jones, Sarah R Meadows, Mari S Manger, Jennifer Coates, Silvia Alayon, Saskia J M Osendarp

doi : 10.1093/ajcn/nqab173

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, Volume 114, Issue 3, September 2021, Pages 862–870

Micronutrient (MN) deficiencies can produce a broad array of adverse health and functional outcomes. Young, preschool children and women of reproductive age in low- and middle-income countries are most affected by these deficiencies, but the true magnitude of the problems and their related disease burdens remain uncertain because of the dearth of reliable biomarker information on population MN status. The reasons for this lack of information include a limited understanding by policy makers of the importance of MNs for human health and the usefulness of information on MN status for program planning and management; insufficient professional capacity to advocate for this information and design and implement related MN status surveys; high costs and logistical constraints involved in specimen collection, transport, storage, and laboratory analyses; poor access to adequately equipped and staffed laboratories to complete the analyses reliably; and inadequate capacity to interpret and apply this information for public health program design and evaluation. This report describes the current situation with regard to data availability, the reasons for the lack of relevant information, and the steps needed to correct this situation, including implementation of a multi-component MN Data Generation Initiative to advocate for critical data collection and provide related technical assistance, laboratory services, professional training, and financial support.

Dietary guidelines traditionally recommend low-fat dairy because dairy's high saturated fat content is thought to promote cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, emerging evidence indicates that dairy fat may not negatively impact CVD risk factors when consumed in foods with a complex matrix.

Dietary intake of sulfur amino acids and risk of kwashiorkor malnutrition in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo 

Merry C Fitzpatrick, Anura V Kurpad, Christopher P Duggan, Shibani Ghosh, Daniel G Maxwell

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, Volume 114, Issue 3, September 2021, Pages 925–933

Kwashiorkor is an often-fatal type of severe acute malnutrition affecting hundreds of thousands of children annually, but whose etiology is still unknown. Evidence suggests inadequate sulfur amino acid (SAA) status may explain many signs of the condition but studies evaluating dietary protein intake in relation to the genesis of kwashiorkor have been conflicting. We know of no studies of kwashiorkor that have measured dietary SAAs.

Although populations from low- and middle-income countries are at higher risk for thiamine (vitamin B-1) deficiency, accurate data on the global prevalence of thiamine deficiency are still lacking due to the difficult blood collection in remote regions. Volumetric absorptive microsampling (VAMS) from finger prick blood, generating dried blood microsamples, could simplify blood collection and allow the setup of epidemiological studies to improve the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of thiamine deficiency.
