(Sociedad Medica de Santiago, 2015)© 2015, Sociedad Medica de Santiago. All rights reserved.Background: Active search of celiac disease (CD) among risk groups has significantly increased the scope of known clinical variants. Aim: To measure the frequency ...
-
(2012)Liver cells respond to copper loading upregulating protective mechanisms. However, to date, except for liver content, there are no good indicators that identify individuals with excess liver copper. We hypothesized that ...
-
(Lippincott Williams and Wilkins, 2011)Background and Objective: Risk haplotypes have been described in celiac disease (CD), but the influence of native genes on CD in Hispanic Americans is unknown. The aim of the study was to measure the frequency of Amerindian ...
-
(2006)Background: During the twentieth century there was a change in the pattern of diseases in Europe, with an increase in the incidence of allergies and autoimmune disorders, that paralleled a decrease of infectious conditions. ...
-
(Humana Press Inc., 2007)Several families of Talca city, Chile complained to health authorities for what they attributed to consumption of copper (Cu)-contaminated drinking water. We assessed the situation 6-12 mo after the initiation of complaints ...
-
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE INC, 2008-04)The limits of copper homeostatic regulation in humans are not known, making it difficult to define the milder effects of early copper excess. Furthermore, a robust assay to facilitate the detection of early stages of ...
-
(1983)Electropherotypes of human rotavirus from stool samples of hospitalized and ambulatory infants with acute diarrhea were analysed. Thirty-two different electropherotypes were observed in 142 cases in which the viral genome ...
-
(Elsevier GmbH, 2019)The independent toxic effects of copper and acetaminophen are among the most studied topics in liver toxicity. Here, in an animal model of Cebus capucinus chronically exposed to high dietary copper, we assessed clinical ...
-
(2001)Copper effects on human health represent a relevant issue in modern nutrition. One of the difficulties in assessing the early, acute effects of copper ingested via drinking water is that the taste of copper may influence ...
-
(Sociedad Chilena de Nutrición, 2016)The gluten-free foods global market has significantly grown during the last decade. Gluten-free diet represents the treatment for celiac disease, non-celiac gluten sensitivity and wheat allergy. Another group of persons ...
-
(2005)Cu is an essential trace element capable of producing toxic effects in animals and man when ingested acutely or chronically in excess. Although chronic Cu exposure is increasingly recognized as a public health issue, its ...
-
(1986)Thirty-five infants of low socioeconomic status who were living in urban Santiago were hospitalized for acute diarrhea were prospectively evaluated for the presence of enteropathogens associated with the episode. Some ...
-
(1976)The jejunal mucosa was studied in infantile marasmic malnutrition in the early phase after treatment was begun and before the onset of significant weight gain. In 7 infants light microscopy before recovery showed that ...
-
(Frontiers media SA, 2017)Background: Mechanisms underlying the high clinical and histological diversity of celiac disease (CD) remain elusive. Helicobacter pylori (Hp) chronically infects gastric and duodenal mucosa and has been associated with ...
-
(2010)The global prevalence of celiac disease is of one person per 250 inhabitants. The disease is induced by gluten, a peptide contained in wheat, rye and barley that during small intestinal digestion generates smaller peptides. ...
-
(2007)Cu is an essential nutrient for man, but can be toxic if intakes are too high. In sensitive populations, marginal over- or under-exposure can have detrimental effects. Malnourished children, the elderly, and pregnant or ...
-
(Science and Education Publishing, 2017)Screening for celiac disease (CD) dramatically improved when techniques able to measure blood autoantibodies against tissue transglutaminase 2 (TTG) were developed. Although typically increased in CD, these antibodies are ...
-
(2010)Classic copper indicators are not sensitive and specific for detecting excess copper exposure when this is higher than customary but not markedly elevated. Serum copper and ceruloplasmin (Cp) are the most commonly used ...
-
(Sociedad Chilena de Nutrición, Bromatología y Toxicología, 2016)Celiac disease is a chronic systemic disorder mediated by immune and autoimmune phenomena, triggered by ingestion of gluten and related prolaminas in genetically susceptible individuals. Food allergy is an adverse, immune ...
