Parenteral nutrition is a therapeutic alternative to meet the nutritional requirements of patients in whom the gastrointestinal tract is unavailable or non-functional.

The aim of the study was to assess the incidence of these complications.</p><p><strong>Method: </strong>A prospective multicenter observational study in hospitalized adult patients receiving parenteral nutrition ≥72 h was conducted. Follow-up was performed until one week after the discontinuation of parenteral nutrition. Data were collected from electronic medical records and parenteral nutrition validation programs (Kabisoft and Clinus). Risk of malnutrition was determined according to MUST or CONUT criteria. The main variables were: incidence of catheter-related bacteriemia, catheter-tip colonization, phlebitis, thrombosis, catheter obstruction, catheter malposition, pneumothorax, hyperglycemia, hypertriglyceridemia, hypercholesterolemia, hepatobiliary disorders and refeeding syndrome.

The aim was to estimate Calcium/Vitamin D adherence in real-world practice and to identify associated factors, with particular emphasis on formulation characteristics and patient-perceived acceptability.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>Population-based analytical cross-sectional study (STROBE guidelines). Random telephone interviews were conducted with 360 participants from a tertiary hospital catchment area in Madrid, with active prescriptions for over 6 months, complementing the data with electronic dispensing records. Global adherence was defined as the simultaneous fulfillment of: self-reported adherence >90%, a Morisky-Green result compatible with adherence, and ≥90% of expected dispensations in the previous 6 months. Formulations were classified a priori into five organoleptic groups based on their sweetener and flavor profile.
