|
|
what is the osmolality of all stool?
|
290 mosm
|
|
what effect will carbs have on the pH of stool?
|
decrease make more acidid
|
|
in addition to the physical barrier of the ileal cecal valve, what other mechanism occurs there?
|
the ileal brake medi by pep YY which is released by glucose or faut in ileum feeds back to slow stomach transit and si transit and increase absorption
|

|
|
what does a high anion gap mean?
|
there is little Na and K in stool; characteristic of osmotic diarrhea. often see a reduced volume from fasting
malabsorptive disorders- Na and K are not absorbed into the body from food |
|
what does a low anion gap mean?
|
there is a lot of Na and K in stool; combined with no reduction from fasting, it can be Dx for secretory diarrhea (body secretes Na and K to achieve isosmotic stool
