In this post-hoc analysis, short-term treatment with teduglutide was associated with improved stool consistency, as well as trends towards reductions in PN/IV requirements and advancements in enteral nutrition volume in children with SBS-IF. Further research assessing the impact of patient-level factors on stool characteristics when using teduglutide is warranted.
