gliadin/癲癇性発作

Wheat allergy is one of the commonest food allergies in childhood and it typically presents with IgE mediated reactions, including anaphylaxis. Seizures are not typically reported to be a direct manifestation of anaphylaxis, though it can occur secondary to hypoxia following significant haemodynamic

Many neurological disorders of gluten-related diseases (GRD), not directly referable to the gastrointestinal tract, have been reported in association with celiac disease (CD), including ataxia, neuropathy and epilepsy. In particular, people with epilepsy diagnosed with CD seems to be characterized

Celiac disease is an immune-mediated disorder triggered by ingestion of wheat gliadin and related proteins in genetically susceptible individuals. In addition to the characteristic enteropathy, celiac disease is associated with various extraintestinal manifestations, including neurologic

A 15-year-old boy with epilepsy and cerebral calcifications, treated with valproic acid, ethyl phenylbarbiturate and ethosuximide, was referred for drug induced systemic lupus erythematosus. Anti-gliadin (AGA) and anti-endomysium (EMA) antibody tests were both positive (EMA titre 1:50). Endoscopic

OBJECTIVE Celiac disease (CD) is an immuno-mediated small bowel disease characterized by chronic inflammation due to a permanent intolerance to gliadin. Several neurological complications have been described, including epilepsy, whose evolution might often improve by adopting gluten-free diet (GFD).

Coeliac disease, epilepsy and cerebral calcifications (CEC) syndrome is a rare clinical condition. One hundred and seventy-one patients have been reported in the literature. Patients are mostly from Italy, Spain, and Argentina, suggesting a geographically restricted condition. Epilepsy is more

Over the last few years, various autoantibodies against cell surface or intracellular antigens were identified in association with several forms of encephalitis, i.e. autoimmune encephalitis. Immunoprecipitaion and sequence analysis of the target protein (proteomics) provided the identification of

OBJECTIVE To determine the frequency of neurologic manifestations in children with gluten sensitivity (GS) and the frequency of GS in children with neurologic disease. METHODS A total of 835 children with GS (based on positive titers for serum anti-gliadin antibody [AGA], anti-endomysial antibody
