چکیده
Chaliacombe, D. N., Brown, G. A., Black, S. C., and Storrie, M. H. (1972). Archives of Disease in Childhood, 47, 442. Increased excretion of 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid in urine of children with untreated coeliac disease. 24-hour urine excretions of 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5HIAA) have been measured in 13 children with coeliac disease before treatment. All were excreting more 5HIAA than an age-matched group of 22 control children. On introduction of a gluten-free diet clinical remission was accompanied by decreasing 5HIAA excretion. Excretion was normal in cases of acute and chronic diarrhoea and cystic fibrosis. The test is proposed as an aid to diagnosis and a method of monitoring satisfactory dietary control.

Urinary 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid in 8-hour collections as an aid in diagnosis of coeliac disease.
8-hour urine excretions of 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid (5-HIAA) were measured in 18 children with coeliac disease before treatment and the results expressed as microgram 5-HIAA/mg creatinine. Similar measurements were made on urine collections from an age-matched control group of 24 children. Significantly higher values of 5-HIAA excretion were found in children with untreated coeliac disease. M...

متن کاملIntestinal permeability in children with Crohn's disease and coeliac disease.
Mannitol and lactulose were used as probe molecules to measure intestinal permeability in children with active small-bowel Crohn's disease and with untreated coeliac disease. Mannitol and lactulose were administered by mouth in a moderately hypertonic solution (580 mmol (mosmol)/l), and results were expressed as the ratio of the molecules excreted in urine over five hours. Patients with Crohn's...
متن کاملType 1 Diabetes Mellitus, Celiac Disease, and Selective IgA Deficiency: a Case Report
Patients with Type 1 diabetes mellitus have a high prevalence of coeliac disease, symptoms of which are often mild, atypical, or absent. Untreated coeliac disease is associated with an increased risk of malignancy, particularly of lymphoma. Therefore, we report a 9-year-old girl with Coeliac disease, diabetes type 1 and Selective IgA deficiency. A 9-year-old female patient presented in august 2...
متن کاملPlasma precursor amino acids of central nervous system monoamines in children with coeliac disease.
Some children with coeliac disease show behavioural disorders such as depression and other signs which have been correlated with reduced central monoamine metabolism. We have therefore investigated the brain availability of the monoamine precursors tryptophan and tyrosine in 15 untreated children with coeliac disease and 12 treated children with coeliac disease as well as in 12 control children...
