Protein-losing enteropathy (PLE) is a rare complication of intestinal diseases. Its main manifestation is hypoproteinemic edema. The diagnosis of PLE is based on the verification of protein loss into the intestinal lumen, by determining fecal α1-antitrypsin concentration and clearance. The localization of the affected colonic segment is clarified using

Sarcoidosis and protein losing enteropathy
The authors report a case of sarcoidosis associated with protein losing enteropathy. The diagnosis of intrathoracic stage I sarcoidosis was based on x-ray and biopsy of mediastinal lymph nodes. Enteric protein loss was suspected because of edema lasting for 2 yr, hypoproteinemia, decreased concentrations of serum immunoglobulins, and lymphopenia ...

Gastric duplication cyst causing hypergastrinemia in an infant
Abstract Gastric duplication cysts are rare congenital anomalies, with fewer than 10% occurring in the stomach. We report a 14‐month‐old girl presenting with failure to thrive, recurrent emesis, hematemesis, and severe duodenitis with ulceration. Laboratory evaluation revealed marked hypergastrinemia (1781 pg/mL), and initial imaging was unrevealing ...

Gut function among children treated for severe acute malnutrition: A cohort study in Uganda
Abstract Objectives Impaired gut function in children with severe acute malnutrition (SAM) is associated with morbidity. We aimed to assess changes in six biomarkers representing different domains of gut function among children with complicated SAM during nutritional rehabilitation, and to identify predictors of these changes.

Summary Germline gain‐of‐function variants in sterile alpha motif domain–containing 9‐like (SAMD9L), located on chromosome 7q, cause a multisystem disorder characterized by bone marrow failure, immunodeficiency and variable neurological involvement. Disease evolution is frequently shaped by somatic genetic rescue (SGR), most commonly through monosomy 7,

Codocytosis in the Dog: 345 Cases (2020–2022)
ABSTRACT Introduction Codocytes, or target cells, are a morphologic variation of erythrocytes characterized by increased membrane surface area relative to volume. In dogs, codocytosis is frequently noted on blood smear evaluation, but its clinical significance remains poorly understood. Objectives To characterize the clinical conditions associated with
