Q

FTT What are the causes of Carbohydrate malabsorbtion?

A

Dietary causes: saturation of normal enzyme levels

e.g. Toddler’s diarrhea

Malabsorption

Duodenum: brush

border hydrolysis

Q

Celiac Recommendations for DGP in < 2 and > 2 yrs ?

Deamidated Gliadin Peptide

A

*Must send DGP in patients <2yo (TTG-IgA poor accuracy in this age group)

• >2yo, many false positive DGP tests

• ie. TTG-IgA negative, DGP-IgG positive, biopsy negative - NOT celiac disease

Q

IBD What are the inv steps for IBD?

A

1. Laboratory evaluation

a. Typical biochemical abnormalities: leukocytosis, anemia, thrombocytosis, hypoalbuminemia, LFT’s
b. Serum inflammatory markers: erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and CRP often elevated
c. Stool:
- Rule out enteric infections, including Clostridium difficile, before endoscopy
- Fecal calprotectin

2. Endoscopy: Endoscopy (OGD and colonoscopy) with confirmatory biopsies demonstrating chronic inflammatory changes is diagnostic gold standard

3. Imaging

SBFT, CT/CTE, MRI/MRE

US/CE, VCE (video capsule endoscopy)

Q

IBD What is the relevance of -Fecal calprotectin?

A

Elevated concentrations in the stool if GI inflammation is ongoing

Cut off of >200 to 300 μg/g has been suggested as optimal combination of sensitivity and specificity

Fecal calprotectin cannot distinguish between inflammation from IBD versus infection, malignancy, or nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug (NSAID) use; cannot determine the location of disease in the bowel; and has been found to be elevated in healthy infants and toddlers

Valuable as a noninvasive marker of disease activity after diagnosis

Q

IBD What Rx can be used to reduce remission?

A

Induce Remission

  1. Tube feeds (common; Crohn’s only), less benefit in uC
  2. Corticosteroids - both, esp in UC, oral budesonide
  3. OTHER
    a. Mild: 5-ASA (Mesalamine, sulfasalazine) 1st line in UC less efficacy in Crohns
    b. Severe: Biologics (BOTH) Infliximab > Adalimumab
  4. Antibiotics: Decrease inflammation by decreasing pro-inflammatory bacteria in the GI tract
    Perianal disease, abscess, postoperative prophylaxis
