2 types of acquired lactose intolerance mechanisms?
mention if each is permanent or temporary |
1. just losing lactase over time (usually at 10-15)- permanent
2. with inflammation0 temporary |
|
What would cause a transmural (3) vs a mucosal intestinal infarct (1) and why?
|
transmural- polycythemia blocking the veins, vasculitis clamping down arteries, embolism doing a complete block
mucosal- hypotension the mucosal layer is the end of the arteries and can only be selectively infarcted when there is some watershed infarct. |
|
Two gene associations with celiac's? mnemonic?
|
HLA DQ2 and DQ8
you would get really bad cramps if you ate at DQ qith crohn's and got a waffle cone |

Pathogenesis of gluten causing celiac inflammation?
|
gluten --> protease breaks it into gliadin --> gliadin is deaminated by tissue transglutaminase --> deamidated gliadin presented by APC's via MHC II --> helper T cells mediate the damage

in dermal papillae, there are columns of vessels.
the IgA from celiac's deposits here the epidermal layer above the papillae don't get circulation they start to balloon out like the herpes distribution |
|
how to treat DH?
|
stop gluten intake
|
|
diagnostic lab tests for celiac's?
backup lab tests? |
IgA antibodies against endomysium, tTG, or gliadin
the IgG version of these incase IgA is deficient |
|
What is a more intrusive way to diagnose celiac's?
|
duodenal biopsy
|
|
Why duodenal???
|
you don't need to stick the scope down as far and this is also the first exposure of intesties to gluten so it is fierce
most involvement is in the duodenum rather than jejeunum and ileum |

Why each?
small bowel carcinoma T cell lymphoma |
small bowel carcinoma0 widespread inflammation can cause cancer
T cell lymphoma- T cell hypersensitivity can cause uncontroled growth since there is so much cytokines |

to make VLDL and LSL
|
|
Sx of abetalipoproteinemia?
|
fat malabsorption because you can't transport it around

most common site of abd pain for UC and crohn's disease? Why?
|
according to most often affect spot
crohn's - RLQ UC- LLQ |
|
Why does crohn's especially cause creeping fat and strictures?
|
tearing through the full wall causes a lot of action from myofirboblasts to fill in the area
fibrosis- strictures contraction- pull up underlying fat layer from beyond the wall |

Why is there iincreased risk of calcium oxalate nephrolithiasis in crohn;s?
|
you normally don't absorp oxalate, but crohn's lets it leak through. it can combine with calcium, especially in the filtrate of kidney, to form stones
|
|
Which IBD can cause fistulas? Why?
|
crohn's because you damage the whole wall so it can form a hole.
|
|
Why is UC higher risk of carcinoma?

because crohn's is more the SI which doesn't get cancer easily
