This commentary highlights the contribution of the article by Chapman and colleagues assessing the relationships between glucose absorption, glycaemia and gastric emptying during critical illness. In addition to several more expected findings, their data suggest that factors other than slow gastric emptying may limit glucose absorption during critical illness. This hypothesis has received little attention so far, although numerous small intestinal abnormalities possibly interfering with absorption are known to occur in intensive care patients. Future work should focus on further validation of tools to assess nutrient absorption in the critically ill, before defining the precise causes and mechanisms that are involved

Impaired glucose and nutrient absorption in critical illness: is gastric emptying only a piece of the puzzle?
