Q

pathogenesis of IBD

A
  1. dendritic cells (APCs) sample luminal BACTERIA****
  2. APC present antigens to lymphocytes
  3. lymphocytes release proinflam cytokines (TNF alpha, ILs): IMBALANCE of proinflam molecules
  4. increase in adhesion molecules and vascular permeability

24
Q

fistulas in CD what and why

A

link between bowel and other bowel or bladder, vagina, etc. bc CD is transmural

25
Q

abscesses in what IBD

A

CD

26
Q

CD features

A

diarrhea, abd pain, bleeding (no bleeding in IBS), strictures, fistulas, malabsorption

27
Q

(IMPORTANT) 7 features of CD (MSNDBEE)

A
  1. mucosal erythema (edema)
  2. superficial ulcers
  3. nodularity from skip areas (cobblestoning)
  4. deep linear ulcers on axis
  5. bowel wall thickening (string sign)
  6. edematous mesentery (fat)
  7. extension of fissuring (fistula, abscesses, adhesions, etc.)
28
Q

(IMPORTANT) histo feature of CD

A

mucosal inflam (crypt abscesses) and chronic mucosal damage, granulomas, ulceration, metaplasia

29
Q

UC 3 stages

A

-proctitis: few bleeding
-less stools
-mucous
-constipation
left-sided colitis
pancolitis

30
Q

most severe complication of UC

A

toxic megacolon (also called Crohn’s colitis): toxic damage to muscularis propria (tunica muscularis). dilated and gangrenous colon

31
Q

UC 4 charact on endoscopy

A
  1. mucosal erythema
  2. broad ulceration
  3. pseudopolyps (regen mucosa)
  4. mucosal atrophy
32
Q

meds for induction in IBD

A

ASA, CS, immunomodulator methotrexate, biologic meds (Abs, anti-TNF)

33
Q

meds for maintenance in IBD

A

ASA, immunomodulators methotrexate and thiopurines, biological meds

34
Q

only induction meds in IBD

A

CS

35
Q

only maintenance meds IBD

A

thiopurines

36
Q

IBD meds induction + maintenance

A

ASA, methotrexate, biological meds

37
Q

(IMPORTANT) best meds in Crohn’s disease

A

biological meds (Ab, anti-TNF, etc.)

38
Q

meds combo used in IBD + general plan

A

biological + immunosuppressant

usually: CS + maintenance

39
Q

celiac disease other names

A

gluten sensitive enteropathy and nontropical sprue

40
Q

celiac pathogenesis

A

T cell mediated immune disease triggered by gliadin (gluten protein)

41
Q

2 important genetic factors in celiac

A

HLA DQ2, DQ8 gene loci on chroosome 6

42
Q

how body rx with gliadin

A

TTG (tissue transglutaminase) modifies gliadin and it rxs with immune system

43
Q

celiac on histo

A

CD8+ (cytotoxic) T cells infiltration, mucosal inflam, crypt hyperplasia, villous atrophy

44
Q

3 types of celiac

A
  • classic or typical
  • atypica celiac sprue
  • asymptomatic celiac
45
Q

charact of typical celiac

A

steatorrhea, malabsorption, villous atrophy, mucosal lesions

46
Q

atypical celiac charact

A

minor GI symptoms but many symptoms out of GI (osteoporosis, arthritis, anemia, neuro, ..)

47
Q

asymptomatic silent celiac charact

A

gluten-sensitive enteropathy found after serology

48
Q

latent celiac def

A

normal villous structure but positive marker for celiac (TTG positive)

49
Q

refractory celiac def

A

very bad villous atrophy and not responding to 6 months gluten free diet

50
Q

celiac diseases in order

A

healthy-latent-silent (asymptomatic)-atypical-typical

51
Q

(IMPORTANT) celiac main symptom

A

nocturnal and early morning diarrhea (and also steatorrhea)

52
Q

(IMPORTANT) skin condition associated with celiac

A

dermatitis herpetiformis (pruritic papules) (IgA deposits)

53
Q

(IMPORTANT) gold standard for celiac dx

A
  • IgA tTG (tissue transglutaminase) + order IgA

- if IgA deficient, order IgG TTG

54
Q

A

scalloping, absent folds, fissures, mosaicism

55
Q

(IMPORTANT) REAL way to dx celiac (bc IgA TTG not perfect)

A

biopsy

56
Q

biopsy stages (done in D2) for celiac

A

increased risk of:

  • lymphoma
  • upper gut and SI malignancy
  • ulcerative jejunoileitis
59
Q

celiac vs gluten sensitivity

A
celiac = inflammatory
sensitivity = allergy to gluten, no enteropathy
