title: [Gut immunity and nutrition support therapy of patients in gastrointestinal surgery].
abstract: The patients in gastrointestinal surgery are always accompanied with malnutrition. Parenteral nutrition is the main support method for patients with intestinal dysfunction. The normal intestinal mucosal immune system can protect against bacteria in the gut. Parenteral nutrition without enteral stimulation injures of the intestinal mucosal immunity and increases the risk of infection. It is very important to protect intestinal mucosal barrier by nutrition support therapy.
