Epub 2012 Mar 5. PMID: 22481956 Abstract Title:  Osteogenesis Imperfecta with Celiac Disease and Type II Diabetes Mellitus Associated: Improvement with a Gluten-Free Diet. Abstract:  Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a genetic disease, with a connective tissue alteration, consisting in the presence of multiple spontaneous fractures or after minimal traumatism. Its association with other metabolic processes is rarely described. We present the clinical case of a female adult patient of 43 years. From her infancy, she has had multiple fractures, needing several surgical interventions, and she was diagnosed of OI type 2 at adolescence age. Due mainly to difficulties in walking remaining in wheel-chair in the last three years, she was overweight with morbid obesity (BMI = 45.4) and had a type-II DM associated. She suffered from recurrent abdominal pain and chronic diarrhea and was diagnosed of celiac disease (CD) with increased intraepithelial duodenal infiltration, being classified as lymphocytic enteritis, Marsh I type. She was put on a gluten-free diet (GFD), having lost 6 kg of weight after 6 months, with a good control of DM-II and presenting a significant clinical improvement. It is rewarding to search the presence of two coincidental metabolic diseases associated to OI, specially CD, because of the dramatic clinical benefit in the general found after putting on a GFD. https://greenmedinfo.com/article/glutenfree-diet-improves-osteogenesis-imperfecta-associated-celiac-disease-and#comments Celiac Disease Diabetes Mellitus: Type 2 Diarrhea Osteogenesis Imperfecta Dietary Modification: Wheat/Gluten Free Gluten Multiple Fractures Human: Case Report Wed, 11 Apr 2012 01:42:19 +0000 greenmedinfo 74132 at https://greenmedinfo.com Fragilitas Ossium https://greenmedinfo.com/disease/fragilitas-ossium <div class="field field-image"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> <img class="imagefield imagefield-field_image" width="450" height="450" alt="" src="//cdn.greenmedinfo.com/sites/default/files/Bone_10.jpg?1476297355" /> </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-copyright"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> Copyright: &lt;a href=&#039;http://www.123rf.com/profile_alila&#039;&gt;alila / 123RF Stock Photo&lt;/a&gt; </div> </div> </div> <fieldset class="fieldgroup group-facebook-like-info"><legend>Facebook Like Info</legend><div class="field field-facebook-total-count"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> 0 </div> </div> </div> </fieldset> Osteogenesis Imperfecta Tue, 14 Apr 2009 07:18:12 +0000 greenmedinfo 20074 at https://greenmedinfo.com Lobstein Disease https://greenmedinfo.com/disease/lobstein-disease <div class="field field-image"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> <img class="imagefield imagefield-field_image" width="450" height="450" alt="" src="//cdn.greenmedinfo.com/sites/default/files/Bone_16.jpg?1479597107" /> </div> </div> </div> <div class="field field-copyright"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> Copyright: &lt;a href=&#039;http://www.123rf.com/profile_alila&#039;&gt;alila / 123RF Stock Photo&lt;/a&gt; </div> </div> </div> <fieldset class="fieldgroup group-facebook-like-info"><legend>Facebook Like Info</legend><div class="field field-facebook-total-count"> <div class="field-items"> <div class="field-item odd"> 0 </div> </div> </div> </fieldset> Osteogenesis Imperfecta Tue, 14 Apr 2009 07:21:19 +0000 greenmedinfo 20827 at https://greenmedinfo.com
