6. În patient with severe viral hepatitis (80% of liver parenchyma cells were damaged) decreased blood serum urea concentration was reveled up to 1.4 mmol/1 (2.5-8.4 mmol/l in the physiological norm). 16 g/day of urea was excreted (25g/day in the norm). Why was urea content decreased in blood and urinc? For the answer: a) write down the scheme of the main waste product of nitrogen the metabolism synthesis, point out its localization in the body and name; b) specify which substances concentration may increase in the blood of such patients; c) specify symptoms accompanied these substances increased concentration in blood, explain the mechanism of toxicity of one of them; d) presume recommendations to reduce the manifestation of mentioned symptoms.

Using a table of reference values for blood and urine tests, look up normal values for blood pH, blood glucose, blood ketone bodies, and urine pH, and identify whether each test result is normal or abnormal. 2. A “fruity acetone combined with alcohol” smell was detected in Mr. Boulard’s breath, and in his urine. Which substance is producing the “fruity acetone” smell? 3. Where in the body are ketone bodies produced? What energy source does the body use to produce these substances? 4. The production of large amounts of ketone bodies is often seen when glucose is not readily available as an energy source (e.g., in starvation). In Mr. Boulard’s case, large amounts of glucose are in the blood. Explain why his body is producing ketones in the presence of suchlarge amounts of glucose. 5. Explain how the pH of Mr. Boulard’s blood and urine is related to the ketone bodies measured in each of these fluids.
