Infants and young children with acute gastroenteritis have been studied with regard to stool electrolyte composition, external electrolyte balance, and aldosterone excretion. At the height of fluid depletion the stool sodium concentrations are low (median 8 m-equiv/1, range 3-58 m-equiv/1). The results indicate that in gastroenteritis the colon is responding homeostatically to a state of secondary hyperaldosteronism, thus assisting in sodium conservation.
针对患有急性肠胃炎的婴幼儿,研究了其粪便电解质组成、外部电解质平衡及醛固酮排泄情况。在脱水高峰期,粪便钠浓度较低(中位数为8毫当量/升,范围为3 - 58毫当量/升)。结果表明,在肠胃炎中,结肠会对继发性醛固酮增多症状态产生稳态反应,从而有助于钠的保留。
