| Abstract |
The nonthyroidal illness syndrome (NTIS) is prevalent among patients with enterocutaneous fistula and is associated with poor outcomes. The present study aimed to explore the role of enteral nutrition (EN) therapy on thyroid function among patients with enterocutaneous fistula and NTIS. We conducted a retrospective observational study among patients with enterocutaneous fistula between January 2013 and April 2014. All enrolled patients received EN therapy. Thyroid function and other parameters were measured. After administration of 4 weeks of EN therapy, NTIS was resolved in 66 patients (Group A), while it persisted in 14 patients (Group B). The overall treatment success rate was 82.50 %. There were no significant differences between groups A and B at baseline for all parameters, except for the time from admission to start of EN therapy. The logistic analysis revealed that the time from admission to start of EN therapy was a significant independent indicator for achieving resolution of NTIS in our cohort. This retrospective observational cohort study demonstrated that EN therapy can aid in the resolution of NTIS among patients with enterocutaneous fistula. These findings confirm the benefit of EN in the treatment of enterocutaneous fistula. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 04 October 2016.
All research outputs
#17,776,579
of 22,832,057 outputs
Outputs from BMC Endocrine Disorders
#480
of 755 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#192,038
of 285,322 outputs
Outputs of similar age from BMC Endocrine Disorders
#10
of 16 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,832,057 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 755 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.5. This one is in the 33rd percentile – i.e., 33% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 285,322 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 28th percentile – i.e., 28% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 16 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 31st percentile – i.e., 31% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
