Document Summary
Autoimmune disease of small intestine (elithelium) when gluten is digested. Gluten (gliadin) is found in wheat, rye, barely and oats. Gluten introduced to genetic- susceptible pt activation of t h cell, antibody, complement atrophy, flatten of villi + crypt elongate decrease sa of villi + crypt become hyperplastic malabsoprtion. Destruction of mucosal cells inflammation diminished secretion of intestinal hormones (secretin/ cholecystokinin) + water/electrolyte secreted malabsoprtion + watery diarrhea + fatty stool. *secretin water/bicarb from pan into duodenum *cholecystokinin bile from gall/digest enzymes from pan. Bm/day) pale, bulky, greasy, foul smelling, contain oil droplets. Fail to thrive abdominal protuberance, wasted buttocks, limbs, hypotonia.
