	Botulism as an Intestinal Toxemia
		Intestinal toxemia botulism in infants and adults is the subject of this chapter.
		Almost all adult intestinal toxemia botulism cases had either an underlying alteration of normal intestinal anatomy because of surgery or inflammatory bowel disease, or an alteration of the normal intestinal microflora from broad spectrum antibiotic usage, or both.
		Somewhat less than a dozen cases of intestinal toxemia botulism in adults and older children have been reported (15,113-117), a situation that is consistent with the presumed rarity of the condition and its current underrecognition.

		Paralysis usually occurs on the side opposite the cerebral lesion.

		That and I quote ‘This condition is characterised by abdominal distension, vomiting, intestinal ‘silence’ and failure to pass stools or flatus.
		In the very severe depletions (of K), complete intestinal paralysis was associated with a large rise in plasma K Since these elevations of plasma K occurred more than an hour after the withdrawal of the intraperitoneal fluid, K may have been moving into the plasma from the cells.
		A point of considerable interest, therefore, was whether the paralysis was mainly associated with the increase of plasma K or with a decrease in cellular K’.

	Laxative - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Their strength is between that of the bulk producers and the stimulants, and they can be used for patients with occasional constipation or those with anorectal conditions for whom passage of a firm stool is painful.
		Saline laxatives attract and retain water in the intestinal lumen, increasing intraluminal pressure and thus softening the stool.
		Stimulant laxatives act on the intestinal mucosa or nerve plexus, they also alter water and electrolyte secretion.

	Section 5 Chapter 4 Intestinal Obstruction
		Intestinal obstruction is a common medical problem and accounts for a large percentage of surgical admissions for acute abdominal pain [see 5:1 Acute Abdominal Pain].
		Small intestinal ileus is the most common form of intestinal obstruction; it occurs after most abdominal operations and is a common response to acute extra-abdominal medical conditions and intra-abdominal inflammatory conditions [see Table 1].
		A decrease in intestinal gas distal to a point of obstruction coupled with an increase in proximal dilatation suggests that the obstruction is worsening; conversely, a decrease in intestinal distention coupled with the appearance of more gas distally in the colon suggests that the obstruction is being reduced.

	Early American Manual Therapy
		Drugs and enemas are of no avail, as their use only serves to give temporary relief, and they have to be increased in frequency and amount each time they are given, while vibration gets at the seat of the cause, and by relieving or removing it, brings about the desired cure.
		A frequent cause of constipation is the failure on the part of the patient to respond to the impulses which the packing of the feces in the rectum brings about; this, as in cases of overloading of the intestines, results in atony of the rectum.
		In paralysis agitans the spine must be left alone, and the treatment should be of a general character, going over the limbs, over the trunk posteriorly and anteriorly, and over the cervical sympathetics.

		But only a minimal amount of digestive juice is eliminated by this process; the intestines reabsorb most of it; otherwise the body would rapidly dehydrate; (hence the devastating effects of persistent diarrhea).
		Study in this field must take carefully into account the state of the body before ingestion and after digestion as well as the chemical composition of the food and the waste.
		The role and significance of the intestinal bacterial flora is under investigation.

	Welcome to Liphook Equine Hospital
		Grass sickness is a usually fatal condition of grazing horses which causes varying degrees of paralysis of the horse’s intestines.
		In some cases it is helpful to collect a small tissue sample of the wall of the small intestine for microscopic studies (ileal biopsy), during laparotomy.
		Horses with signs of acute and sub-acute grass sickness will not respond to treatment because their intestines are irreparably paralysed and they should be humanely destroyed as soon as the diagnosis can be reasonably made.

		Colonic inertia (paralysis of the colon) is associated with severe constipation.
		When people speak of a “visceral reaction” they mean the same thing as a “gut reaction.” Microscopic examinations of the intestines show that most people with colonic inertia have clear structural abnormalities of either the layer of nerves called the myenteric plexus (visceral neuropathy), or of the intestinal muscles.
		I attached the end of her small intestine to the top of the remaining rectum (ileorectal anastomosis) and lifted the rectum up and sutured it to the top of her sacrum (rectopexy).

		Mixing movements are circular segmental contractions simultaneous with longitudinal muscle contraction; similar to the mixing movements in the small intestine.
		During these contractions, the unstimulated portions of the large intestine bag out (haustra), while stimulated segments undergo "haustral contractions." Contraction intensifies for 30 seconds, then relaxation takes 60 seconds and contraction moves slowly analward and then begins in a new area.
		Sensory afferents in the rectum lead to the spinal cord and efferents return to the descending colon, sigmoid flexure, rectum and anus via the nervi erigentes.

	Colic - Grass Sickness
		After 150 years of research, the cause of the disease remains incompletely understood, but recent developments suggest that it may be due to an environmental bacterium (Clostridium botulinum), which under conditions that remain unclear, produces a toxin in the horse’s intestine which results in its paralysis.
		This treatment needs to be continued for weeks, and sometimes months, and is only suitable for a small number of very select cases, basically those that have only slight and partial intestinal paralysis.
		Horses which do recover from the chronic form of the disease are permanently susceptible to choke and to colonic and rectal impactions thereafter and need careful dietary management for the rest of their lives.

		If partial IO is suspected on the basis of symptoms of colicky abdominal pain, anthelmintics that cause a flaccid paralysis are preferred to those that cause spastic paralysis, because anthelmintics that cause spastic paralysis may induce complete obstruction.
		Causes flaccid paralysis of the helminth by blocking response of Ascaris species worm to acetylcholine, thus expels the worm by normal intestinal peristalsis.
		In a patient with suspected IO due to ascariasis, avoid the use of an anthelmintic that causes spastic paralysis of the Ascaris worm (eg, pyrantel pamoate).

		Compounds in grapefruit juice, including naringenin, slow the normal detoxification and metabolism processes in the intestines and liver, which hinders the body's ability to breakdown and eliminate these drugs.
		The end result of these two mechanisms is that much more of the statin drug enters the systemic circulation than would normally be the case, leading to a build up in statin levels that can be quite dangerous, and may trigger a rare but serious statin-associated disease called rhabdomyolysis.
		Rhaddomyolysis affects muscle tissue, usually causing temporary paralysis or weakness, unless the muscle is severely injured.
