Answer to Question 1

A number of factors could affect his tolerance, including a worsening disease state (which could affect GI motility). Hyperglycemia and electrolyte imbalances can also impact his response to the enteral therapy. Fluid needs (or fluctuations in fluid status) could also potentially impact tolerance.

Answer to Question 2

 NASH (non-alcoholic steatohepatitis) and eventually cirrhosis
