maldigestion
rome IV criteria for IBS
recurrent abdominal pain at least 1 day/week with two or more of the following:
- related to defecation
- change in stool frequency
- change in stool form
what symptoms should NOT be associated with IBS
- weight loss
- rectal bleeding
- anemia
- should not be nocturnal or progressive
what carbohydrates are absorbed through NA+ dependent cotransport?
2
glucose
galactose
what carbohydrate is absorbed through facillitated diffusion?
fructose
carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids are absorbed in the
small intestine
the surface area for absorption in the small intestine is greatly increased by the
brush border
lactose intolerance is due to […] deficiency
lactase
what kind of diarrhea does lactose intolerance cause?
osmotic diarrhea
malabsorption of sugars greatly mimics
IBS
bloating, diarrhea, gas
oligosaccharides are […] sugar units
3-10
hydrolyze polysaccarides to monosaccarides in the brush border
a-glucosidases
have B-glycosidic bonds and are undigestible
fiber
FODMAP
Fermentable
Oligo
Di
Monosaccharides
And
Polyols
family of poorly absorbed, short-chain carbohydrates
FODMAP
lactose, fructose, fructo/galacto oligosaccharides, polyols
hallmark feature of carbohydrate maldigestion
osmotic diarrhea
