Excerpt

Cholesterol ester storage disease (CESD) is a rare, autosomal-recessive, lysosomal storage disorder. It is characterized by deficiency of lysosomal acid lipase (LAL) enzyme, which is responsible for intracellular hydrolysis of triaclyglycerols and cholesteryl esters. The deficiency state of LAL can be expressed in two major phenotypic variants: Wolman's disease, which is the severe infantile form, uniformly fatal within 1–2 years of life, and the more benign CESD, which is associated with some residual LAL activity [14]. Patients with CESD often present in the first or second decade of life with hepatosplenomegaly and elevated cholesterol levels. Hepatomegaly caused by hepatic steatosis and fibrosis can lead to micro-nodular cirrhosis. Hypercholesterolemia as a result of upregulation of hepatic very low density lipoprotein B-100 synthesis [5] and low plasma levels of high density lipoproteins (HDL) [6] may lead to premature atherosclerosis and vascular complications. …

Reizdarmsyndrom: Diäten wirksamer als Medikamente

29.04.2024 Reizdarmsyndrom Nachrichten

Bei Reizdarmsyndrom scheinen Diäten, wie etwa die FODMAP-arme oder die kohlenhydratreduzierte Ernährung, effektiver als eine medikamentöse Therapie zu sein. Das hat eine Studie aus Schweden ergeben, die die drei Therapieoptionen im direkten Vergleich analysierte.

Bei schweren Reaktionen auf Insektenstiche empfiehlt sich eine spezifische Immuntherapie

Insektenstiche sind bei Erwachsenen die häufigsten Auslöser einer Anaphylaxie. Einen wirksamen Schutz vor schweren anaphylaktischen Reaktionen bietet die allergenspezifische Immuntherapie. Jedoch kommt sie noch viel zu selten zum Einsatz.
