16
Q

deglutition

A

pushes bolus of food into oropharynx

17
Q

dysphagia

A

difficult swallowing

18
Q

acute esophagitis

A

ingestion of irritating substances, viral inflammation, intubation

19
Q

GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease)

A
  • LES fails to close adequately
  • stomach contents “reflux”
  • HCl from stomach irritates esophageal lining = heartburn (radiating substernal pain)
20
Q

Risk factors for GERD

A
  • hiatal hernia
  • recurrent vomiting
  • lying down right after a meal
  • delayed gastric emptying
  • increased abdominal pressure
  • reduced LES muscle tone
21
Q

parietal cells

A

produces intrinsic factor

produces HCl in stomach

22
Q

chief cells

A

produces pepsinogen

23
Q

Peptic Ulcer Disease (PUD)

A
  • erosion from chronic inflammation

- caused by hypersecretion of HCl, hyposecretion of mucus, helicobacter pylori infection

24
Q

What converts pepsinogen to pepsin?

A

HCl

25
Q

What stimulates parietal cells to produce acid?

A
  • ACh
  • Histamine
  • Gastrin
26
Q

What hormones are found in the small intestine?

A
  • secretin
  • CCK
  • GIP
27
Q

What hormones are secreted by the stomach?

A
  • gastrin
  • ghrelin
  • serotonin
  • histamine
28
Q

Whats an exocrine function of the liver?

A

secretes bile into ducts

29
Q

Whats an endocrine function of the liver?

A

secretes TPO, IGFs, hepcidin, angiotensinogen, calcidiol into the blood

30
Q

What are two ways the liver can INCREASE blood glucose?

A

increase glycogenolysis

increase gluconeogenesis

31
Q

How are carbohydrates absorbed into the body?

A

As monosaccharides

32
Q

How are proteins absorbed into the body?

A

As amino acids
