Poor enrolment and high dropout rates in this short-term study highlighted the difficulty of behavioural change. Those continuing in the study and who received the intervention demonstrated a non-significantly improved activity level and nutritional intake that may benefit long-term outcomes.
Enteric granulomatous inflammation can be caused by a number of conditions including Crohn's disease, sarcoidosis, enteric infections, chronic granulomatous disease and also by drug reactions. Granulomas have also been described in microscopic colitis associated with certain medications and autoimmune diseases. The association of granulomatous ileocolitis with coeliac disease is not common. We present a case of coeliac disease with granulomatous ileocolitis with follow-up and repeat histology on a gluten-free diet. We discuss the pathological mechanisms leading to the association of granulomatous ileocolitis with coeliac disease as well as other conditions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
