The Malabsorption Syndrome and Its Causes and Consequences 2014-08-21 .txt text/plain 9909 529 36 Depending upon the underlying condition, morphological abnormalities are seen in malabsorption range from normal mucosa with increased intraepithelial lymphocytes (gluten-sensitive enteropathy, viral gastroenteritis, food allergies, etc.), villous shortening with crypt hyperplasia (celiac disease (CD), treated CD, tropical sprue, and bacterial overgrowth), to completely flat mucosa (CD, refractory sprue, enteropathy-induced T-cell lymphoma, and autoimmune enteropathy). Celiac disease Celiac disease (CD), also known as celiac sprue, nontropical sprue, gluten-induced enteropathy, or gluten-sensitive enteropathy (GSE), is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the small intestine induced by a T-cell-mediated immune response and characterized by malabsorption after ingestion of wheat gluten or related proteins in rye (secalins) and barley (hordeins) in individuals with a certain genetic background. Diseases often associated with this phase include À enterokinase and trypsinogen deficiencies that can lead to protein malabsorption, À impaired micelle formation that can cause problems in fat stabilization and the resulting fat malabsorption due to deconjugation of bile salts, À stasis of intestinal content due to a variety of factors (motor and anatomical abnormalities and small bowel contamination from enterocolonic fistulas) that can cause bacterial overgrowth. ./cache/cord-346964-9afuen7k.txt ./txt/cord-346964-9afuen7k.txt
