- Explain this table (shown in picture) from a study with the help of the information below and additional information from the article (shown in picture): Primary liver cancer is one of the most prevalent life- threating diseases in China, and liver resection is the major therapy for this malignancy. Recently, various methods have been advocated perioperatively to maintain liver function and promote liver regener- ation after liver resections. These include systemic interventions such as antibiotics in perioperative period and methods to improve general health and the immunity of the individual such as prebiotics and probiotics. Among them, nutritional support is also a vital approach to protect liver function. It has been demonstrated that a good preoperative nutri- tional status could reduce the postoperative morbidity or mortality and consequently the costs of care after surgery. Moreover, malnutrition is frequent in patients suffering from malignant liver disease.

This microbe attaches to the surface of intestinal epithelial cells, producing an endotoxin that causes the epithelium to secrete potassium ions. This induces small amounts of water to follow by osmosis, resulting in the watery rice-stool characteristic of the illness. b. This microbe causes destruction of the cellular structures underneath the intestinal epithelium—this is what induces the watery rice-stool characteristic of the illness. This leaves the overlying intestinal epithelium intact. c. This microbe directly invades the intestinal epithelial cells, but does not kill them. Instead, while multiplying inside them, it causes them to secrete large amounts of chloride ions. This induces water to follow by osmosis, resulting in the watery rice-stool characteristic of the illness. d. This microbe attaches to the surface of intestinal epithelial cells, producing an exotoxin…arrow_forward
