Figure 3 Illustrative case showing the influence of enteral nutrition on arterial blood and brain glucose levels. Based on low brain glucose, enteral nutrition was gradually increased resulting in elevated blood and brain glucose. Due to surgery, enteral nutrition was stopped. This resulted in a decrease in blood and brain glucose. Restarting of enteral nutrition increased blood and brain glucose again.
