AB  - OBJECTIVE: The present study aims to explore the effects of enteral nutrition 
      (EN) semi-curing feeding on nutritional diarrhoea in the patients with stroke. 
      METHODS: The patients admitted to the neurological intensive care unit of a 
      tertiary care hospital with stroke- and EN-related diarrhoea between May 2019 and 
      October 2020 were included in the study. The 60 patients, who met the inclusion 
      criteria were divided into the two groups (30 patients each), the experimental 
      group (EN solution+probiotics+90 ml of pectin) and the control group (EN 
      solution+probiotics), in accordance with the random number table method. The 
      stool number, total stool amount, perineal skin score, and time required to 
      achieve the nutritional target of each patient were recorded at admission and on 
      days 1, 3, and 7 of pectin intervention. The lymphocyte count and the 
      haemoglobin, serum pre-albumin (PA), and total cholesterol (TC) levels were 
      measured in order to assess the patients' nutritional statuses. RESULTS: The 
      stool number and total stool amount on days 1 and 3 of pectin intervention in the 
      experimental group were better than in the control group; the differences were 
      statistically significant (p <0.05). On day 7 of the intervention, the stool 
      number, total stool amount, and perineal skin score had decreased in the 
      experimental group; the differences were statistically significant, when compared 
      to the control group (p <0.05). Furthermore, the PA levels increased, and TC 
      levels decreased in the experimental group; the differences were statistically 
      significant, when compared to the control group (p <0.05). On day 3 of the 
      intervention, the PA levels in the experimental group were increased compared to 
      the control group; the difference was statistically significant (p <0.05). 
      CONCLUSION: EN semi-curing feeding could improve EN-related diarrhoea and 
      nutritional status levels in patients with stroke (Tab. 3, Ref. 9).
