The safety and efficacy of adalimumab in patients with Crohn's disease: the experience of a single Canadian tertiary care centre.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Patients with decompensated cirrhosis often suffer from malnutrition. To enable appropriate nutritional supplementation a correct estimation of resting energy expenditure (REE) is needed. It is, however, unclear whether the volume of ascites should be included or not in the calculations of the REE. MATERIAL ...
