Abstract:
Bile acids can be categorized into primary bile acids,which are synthesized directly in liver cells,and secondary bile acids,which are formed after decomposition by intestinal bacteria. The intestinal flora is diverse and widely used,which is closely related to various functions and diseases in the human body. As one of the main metabolites of intestinal flora,bile acids have a close bidirectional regulation between them.Current research has shown a clear correlation between fecal bile acid levels and changes in gastrointestinal function.This paper will review the relationship between fecal bile acid levels and different defecation frequency in children from the perspective of changes in intestinal bile acids under diarrhea and constipation symptoms,and will provide a research direction for further exploration of the effects of different metabolites based on the composition of bile acids on defecation frequency.
