Abstract
So to summarize the key points: 1. concomitant antibiotic therapy, infected diets and possibly hypoalbuminaemia can lead to enteral-feeding-related diarrhoea; 2. the small intestinal responses to both intragastric and intraduodenal enteral feeding are normal and predictable; 3. there is an ascending colonic secretion during enteral feeding which is more profound during intragastric feeding; 4. the suppression of distal colonic motor activity occurs only during high-load feeding and is probably a secondary phenomenon to the hormonal and secretory responses; 5. peptide YY appears to be intrinsically bound up with the causation of the secretory effect; 6. the secretory effect is abolished by intracaecal SCFA.
