GIT 2 Flashcards
(61 cards)
isotonic with plasma and persists during fasting
increase cAMP activity internal factor
vibrio cholera, carcinoid syndrome
secretory diarrhea
sugars absorb water
external factor
stopped with fasting
osmotic diarrhea
purulent, bloody stools that persist on fasting
exudative diarrhea
voluminous
bulk stools with increase osmolarity combines with excess stool fat
oil O red and Sudan black
Malabsorption
best initial test to confirm malabsorption
HLA DQ2 and HLA DQ8 anti gliaden IgA transglutaminase anti endomysial
celiac
atrophy of villi of small intestine decrease surface area
increase number of intra epithelial lymphocytes
celiac
diarrhea flatulence weight loss fatigue skin rash vit def
tx: decrease gluten and villi will regenerate
celiac
complications of celiac
dermatitis herpitiformis - papillary dermis id effected
IgA nephropathy - hematuria and proteinuria
NHL - due to CD4/ B cells
biopsy location for celiac
jejunum
abnormal DX test
no DX in urine or blood
intestinal dz or surgery of intestine
normal DX test
will see DX in blood and urine
pancreatic dz
tropheryma whillpelli - rod shaped bacilli
causes fatty diarrhea
whipples
micro: foamy macrophages located in lamina propria contain PAS +
diastase resistent
whipples
fever steatorrhea - macrohages compress lacteals (malabsorption) joint pain swollen lymph nodes psych problems
whipples
cell steps in celiac
CD4 + –> produce IL and B cells –> IL prd T helper cells; B cells prod Ig (gluten/gliaden) –> Ig attack gluten in intestine and also villi of intestine
antibodies prod in peyers patches and become bigger
atrophy of apical villous cell - enterocytes at the tip have lactose
infants develop explosive, watery, frothy, stools and abdominal distention
tx: stop dairy - villi regenerate
screening test: acidic stool; increase stool osmolarity
lactose def
cell death in lactose def
apoptosis
AR
1st year of life
impaired formation of apoB
fat stays in enterocytes
A beta lipoproteinemia
low plasma TAGS and cholesterol levels
chylomicrons, VLDLs and apoB are entirely absent from blood
features: acanthocytes, progressive ataxia, rhinitis pigments (vit E)
A beta lipoproteinemia
hematopoietic system - malabsorption
anemia from iron, pyridoxine, folate and vit b12 and bleeding from vit K def
Musculoskeletal system - malabsorption
osteopenia - fracture lining
tetany from hypocalcemia
tetany from hypomagnesium
vit D def
endocrine system - malabsorption
enlarged parathyroid enlargement
decrease vit D –> decrease reabsorption of Ca –> causing increase parathyroid hormone = secondary hyperparathyroidism
night blindness xerophthalmia blindness squamous metaplasia infection
vit A
bleeding 2, 7, 9, 10
vit K
