چکیده
A 2-year-old boy with peritoneal miliary Crohn's disease is described. In addition to vague gastrointestinal symptoms, ascites was a prominent feature. The jejunal mucosa was markedly atrophic, compatible with a diagnosis of coexistent coeliac disease.

Neuroproliferation in the mucosa is a feature of coeliac disease and Crohn's disease.
The pathogenesis of villous damage in coeliac disease is unknown. Change to the delicate neuromuscular core may be significant and this study stained various categories of coeliac disease and controls with neuron-specific enolase (NSE) to examine neurofilaments in the mucosa. The amount of NSE staining was evaluated using computer image analysis. The first part of the study compared coeliac dis...
متن کاملInvestigation of adherent-invasive E. coli in patients with Crohn\'s disease
Background: Crohn's disease and Ulcerative colitis are known as inflammatory bowel disease with high morbidity which are as a result of increasing immune responses to intestinal microbiota in genetically susceptible individuals. The association of adherent invasive Escherichia coli with Crohn's disease in human has been discussed for decades. The principal aim of this study was to assess the re...
متن کاملThe genetics of chronic inflammatory diseases.
Chronic inflammatory diseases have been at the forefront of the new genome-wide association study era. Conditions such as coeliac disease, type 1 diabetes, Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis have all benefited with multiple loci identified and replicated for each condition. As cohort sample numbers increase and researchers collaborate and share cohorts, common susceptibility loci are beginn...
متن کاملType 1 Diabetes Mellitus, Celiac Disease, and Selective IgA Deficiency: a Case Report
Patients with Type 1 diabetes mellitus have a high prevalence of coeliac disease, symptoms of which are often mild, atypical, or absent. Untreated coeliac disease is associated with an increased risk of malignancy, particularly of lymphoma. Therefore, we report a 9-year-old girl with Coeliac disease, diabetes type 1 and Selective IgA deficiency. A 9-year-old female patient presented in august 2...
متن کاملAcid microclimate in coeliac and Crohn's disease: a model for folate malabsorption.
The surface pH of human proximal jejunum was measured in biopsy samples and found to be more acid than the phosphate buffer in which they were incubated. The in vitro jejunal surface pH was 5.93 +/- 0.05 in control subjects and 6.19 +/- 0.09 in treated coeliac patients. A group of untreated coeliac patients with a surface pH of 6.56 +/- 0.14 had a significantly less acid surface pH compared to ...
