Profound acidemia impairs cellular and organ function and consequently should be associated with an increased risk of mortality in critically ill humans and animals. Neonatal diarrhea in calves can result in potentially serious metabolic derangements including profound acidemia due to strong ion
Postprandial reactive hypoglycemia, early satiety and diarrhea are well-recognized side effects following full or partial gastrectomy or gastric bypass. It has only recently been realized, however, that patients with normal gastric anatomy may experience similar symptoms and signs due to primary

METHODS
Patient 1: A 24-year-old Caucasian man presented to our facility with a six-month history
Children with diarrhea hospitalized for respiratory distress often have fatal outcome in resource-limited settings, although data are lacking on risk factors for death in such children. We sought to evaluate clinical predictors for death in such children. In this prospective cohort study, we
