Nutritional implications and physiologic response to pediatric diarrhea.

J I Santos

    Pediatric Infectious Disease
    |January 1, 1986
    PubMed
    Summary

    Acute diarrhea incurs significant nutritional costs, especially in malnourished children. Nutritional strategies can mitigate these costs and improve infection outcomes.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatrics
    • Infectious Diseases
    • Nutritional Science

    Background:

    • Acute diarrhea triggers significant hormonal, metabolic, and immunologic responses in the host.
    • These physiological responses carry a substantial nutritional cost, particularly impacting debilitated or malnourished children.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To explore the nutritional consequences of acute diarrhea.
    • To identify potential nutritional interventions to improve host response to infection.

    Main Methods:

    • The study reviews the physiological responses and nutritional consequences of acute diarrhea.
    • It discusses the potential for exploiting nutrient loss and redistribution for host benefit.

    Main Results:

    • Nutritional strategies, including selective nutrient replacement and withholding nutrients essential for pathogens, can be beneficial.
