These, however, have been exposed to the digestive mercies of bacteria in the largeintestine, and any residual goodies have been removed from them that way.
Stoma care refers to the care required by patients who have had colostomies and other similar procedures, in which a piece of the largeintestine or colon is diverted to an opening in the abdominal wall, known as a stoma.
Based on these findings, we propose a model whereby deficiencies in disaccharidases and hexose transporters alter the milieu of carbohydrates in the distal small intestine (ileum) and proximal largeintestine (cecum), resulting in the supply of additional growth substrates for bacteria.
