Background: Exogenous Glucagon-Like Peptide-2 (GLP-2) treatment improves intestinal wet weight absorption in short bowel syndrome (SBS) patients. In healthy subjects, administration of GLP-2 increases small intestinal blood flow. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of GLP-2 on mesenteric blood flow and dynamic changes in cardiac parameters in SBS patients with jejunostomy and varying length of remnant small intestine.Methods: 8 SBS patients with end-jejunostomy and less than 200 cm small intestine were given GLP-2, 1600 mu g subcutaneously (SC), or isotonic saline in a double blinded manner. At 0,30 and 60 min plasma GLP-2 was measured, and from 0 to 90 min, blood flow in the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and the celiac artery (CA) was measured using Doppler ultrasound (US), and cardiovascular variables were measured by continuous impedance cardiography and finger plethysmography.Results: Plasma GLP-2 concentrations increased significantly in the GLP-2 group, whereas no changes were seen in the placebo group. Compared to baseline, GLP-2 SC elicited a 19.4% decrease (p
