Malabsorption
• Malabsorption is a clinical term that encompasses defects occurring during the digestion and absorption of food nutrients by and infections of the gastrointestinal tract
• Impairment can be of single or multiple nutrients depending on the abnormality.
![Page 3: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Classification of Malabsorption Syndrome
A. Inadequate digestion:• Postgastrectomy steatorrhea.• Exocrine Pancreatic insufficiency.• Reduced bile salt concentration in
intestine:
I.) Liver Disease
II.) Cholestasis
III.) Bacterial over growth
IV.) Interruption of enterohepatic circulation of bile salt.

B. Inadequate absorptive surface:
• Resection• Diseased intestine
C. Lymphatic obstruction. e.g Lymphoma
D. Primary mucosal defects.• Crohn’s disease• Coeliac disease• Tropical Sprue• Disaccharide Deficiency• Lymphoma• TB

• Malabsorptive disorders can be categorized into
1-Generalized mucosal abnormalities
resulting in multiple nutrient malabsorption
2-Specific nutrient malabsorption disorder
( carbohydrate, fat, protein, vitamin and mineral malabsorption)
![Page 7: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Malabsorptive disorders with generalized mucosal defects
• Celiac disease• Cow’s milk allergy• Microvillous inclusion disease• Tufting enteropathy• Lymphangiectasia• Short bowel syndrome• Chronic malnutrition
• Congenital immunodeficiency disorders• HIV• Parasitic infections• Tropical sprue• Bacterial overgrowth

Mechanisms1. Luminal phase (processing defect)
• Digestive enzyme deficiency / inactivation• bile salt synthesis; Excretion; loss;
bile salt de-conjugation• gastric acid; intrinsic factor (p. anemia)• Bacterial consumption of nutrients
2. Mucosal phase• Epithelial transport defect – inflammations
infections• Brush border hydrolysis defect
congenital/acquired disacharidase deficiency3. Post-absorptive phase
• Enterocyte processing – Abetalipoproteinemia• Lymphocytic obstruction – intestinal
lymphangectasia

CLINICAL MANIFESTATIONS
• History:
• Diarrhea/steatorrhoea,Weight loss Symptoms of anaemia
• Diarrhoea – bulky, floating, malodorous stool – difficult to flush.
• Weight loss – may be profound, usually associated with anorexia.
• Anaemia – B12, iron, folate malabsorption. Patient may complain of dizziness, dyspnoea and fatigue
![Page 12: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Important part of history:
• Recent travel - giardiasis
• Drug abuse/multiple blood transfusions or ethanol abuse -
• surgical resection
- small bowel
- gastric
• Malabsorption + chronic lung disease = cystic fibrosis
• Fever + weight loss = TB, lymphoma
![Page 13: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Clinical featuresDepend on the cause and severity
• Global• Diffuse mucosal
involvement• Impaired
absorption of all nutrients
• Classic manifestationDiarrhea(steatorrhea)weight loss
• Majority – sub clinical
E.g.. Celiac disease
• Partial (isolated)• 2° to diseases that interfere with absorption of
specific nutrientsE.g.Pernicious Anemia Lactase deficiency

of duodenal mucosa – celiac disease• Use of vital dyes to identify villous atrophy
• Biopsy – to establish Dx• For p’ts with documented steatorrhea
or ch. Diarrhea• Lesions seen – classifid in to three
• Diffuse,specific e.g. whippl’s Disease• Patchy, specific – crohn’s D., lymphoma
infectious causes• Diffuse,non-specific – celiac sprue, Tropical sprue
autoimmune enteropathy• Suspected distal pathology - push enteroscopy

Tests for steatorrhea• Quantitative test
• 72hr stool fat collection – gold standard• > 6gm/day – pathologic• P’ts with steatorrhea - >20gm/day• Modest elevation in diarrheal disease
(may not necessarily indicate Malabsorption)• Qualitative tests
• Sudan lll stain• Detect clinically significant steatorrhea in
>90% of cases• Acid steatocrit – a gravimetric assay
• Sensitivity – 100%, specificity – 95% , PPV – 90%• NIRA (near infra reflectance analysis)
• Equally accurate with 72hr stool fat test• Allows simultaneous measurement of fecal fat,
nitrogen, CHO

Tropheryma whippelli
Isolated in a cell culture from a patient with endocarditis aerobic, rod-shaped, gram-positive, non- acid fast, periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) positive bacillus member of the Actinomycetes (placed between the genus Cellulomonas and the Actinomycetes clade)
It is found both intracellularly and extracellularly grow slowly in acidic vacuoles of cells
![Page 45: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Pathogenesis /Immunology
Host immune deficiency and possibly secondary immune down regulation are responsible
Source of transmission is unknown - likely per oralThe bacteria most commonly invades the intestinal lamina
propria and the vacuoles of "foamy" macrophagesTissue macrophages are unable to kill and clear
T.whipplei.- CD11b on macrophages mediates intracellular
degradation of ingested bacteria
This deficiency in killing then causes Whipple’s disease
![Page 46: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Clinical Manifestations
• There are four cardinal clinical manifestations of Whipple's disease
• Arthralgias • Weight loss • Diarrhea • Abdominal pain
![Page 47: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Less common symptoms include
• fever and skin hyperpigmentation• symptoms or signs related to cardiac
disease (dyspnea, pericarditis, culture-negative endocarditis),
• pleuropulmonary (pleural effusion), • mucocutaneous disease;
nonthrombocytopenic purpura can also occur
![Page 48: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
GI Features
• Weight loss: usually 20-30 lbs. May present years before diagnosis.
• Early GI symptoms are nondescript, often diagnosed as IBD.
• Diarrhea: steatorrhea, but may be watery.
• Abdominal pain tends to be epigastric and exacerbated following meals.
![Page 49: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
CNS Features
• 21–43% of cases of Whipple's disease have neurologic symptoms
• 43% - 100% have central nervous colonization
• Characteristic triad: • Dementia• External opthalmoplegia• Facial myoclonus
• Oculomasticatory myorhythmia (OMM) is diagnostic.
• CNS colonization may serve as a repository for bacteria and a mechanism for CNS relapse
![Page 50: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
CNS Features
• Imaging:
• generalized cerebral atrophy, scattered small chalky nodules in cortical and subependymal gray matter (true granulomas that contain PAS-positive foamy macrophages)
• Areas of intense demylination resembling MS
• Micro-infarcts
![Page 51: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
Endocarditis
• Whipple endocarditis has been described in a small number of patients.
• Affected patients may have no clinical or histologic evidence of gastrointestinal disease or arthralgias.
• Endocarditis caused by T. whipplei may not be associated with the classical clinical presentation of Whipple's disease.
![Page 52: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Common clinical syndromes that suggest the possible diagnosis of Whipple's disease include
• Fever of unknown origin, chronic serositis, progressive central nervous system disease with myoclonus or ophthalmoplegia, migratory polyarthropathy, and generalized lymphadenopathy.
• Vitamin or iron deficiency anemia, hypoalbuminemia, and relative lymphopenia should increase the level of suspicion.

Among the disorders which should be excluded prior to making a diagnosis of Whipple's disease are:
• Hyperthyroidism • Connective tissue disease • Inflammatory bowel disease with migratory
polyarthropathy • AIDS

Diagnosis
• Periodic acid schiff:
• PAS-positive, diastase-resistant inclusions on light microscopy
• Confirmed by characteristic trilaminar cell wall
• Polymerase Chain reaction:
• PCR-sequenced bacterial 16sRNA
• PCR can be applied to duodenal tissue, lymph node, pleural-fluid cells, and peripheral blood
• Abnormal Labs:
• -ESR, -CRP
• anaemia of chronic disease
• hypoalbuminaemia

Treatment
• Tetracycline became the mainstay of therapy for many years. • high relapse rate of 35 percent among
patients treated primarily with tetracycline. Even more alarming was a high rate of CNS relapse, and a dismal response (five percent) to retreatment of CNS relapse with tetracycline.
![Page 60: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
• A combination of streptomycin (1g) and benzylpenicillin (penicillin G; 1.2 million units) for 14 days and there after
• Oral cotrimoxazole (trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole; 160 mg/800 mg twice daily) for 1 year
With this treatment regimen, however, relapses have been reported after cessation of antibiotic therapy, may be because trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole is only bacteriostatic despite the high intracellular concentrations

Celiac disease
Syn: Gluten-sensitive enteropathy, celiac sprue, non-tropical sprue
Definition: A common autoimmune disorder characterized
by an immune response to ingested wheat gluten and related proteins of rye and barley that leads to inflammation, villous atrophy, and crypt hyperplasia in the small intestine.
![Page 64: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
Prevalence• Now thought to be one of most common
inherited diseases:1:266 people worldwide; 1:133 Americans (~ 2 million), more in North Europeans. However, as few as 1 out of 10 people diagnosed.
• Slightly more prevalent in female. • There is strong HLA-linked genetic
predisposition
• It has been reported in Indians, Arabs, Hispanics, Israeli Jews, Sudanese, and people of Cantonese extraction
• Punjabis and Gujaratis from India who lived in England developed celiac 2.7 times as often as Europeans when on a gluten-rich diet

History of Celiac
• Aretaeus from Cappadochia (now Turkey) in the 2nd century AD described a chronic malabsorptive condition
• He named this disorder "koiliakos” which is Greek for "suffering in the bowels.”

History of Celiac
• The second classical description was in 1888 in a report entitled "On the Coeliac Affection“ by Samuel Gee
S. Gee: “On the coeliac affection” Saint Bartholomew’s Hospital Reports, London, 1888, 24: 17-20
"to regulate the food is the main part of treatment ...
The allowance of farinaceous foods must be small ...
but if the patient can be cured at all, it must be by means of diet."

History of Celiac
• During World War II, celiac children improved during the food shortages when bread was unavailable.
• After the war, symptoms reoccurred when bread and cereals were reintroduced.
• Dutch pediatrician Willem K Dicke recognized and confirmed this association between cereal grains and malabsorption.

History of Celiac
• The celiac lesion in the proximal small intestine was first described by Paulley in 1954.

Pathophysiologyof Celiac Disease
Grain protein exists in four general storage forms which are categorized by their solubility characteristics:
• Prolamins (soluble in ethanol)• Glutenins (partially soluble in dilute
acid or alkali solutions)• Globulins (soluble in 10 percent NaCl)• Minor albumins (soluble in water)
Glutens specifically are the prolamins and the glutenins

Pathophysiologyof Celiac Disease
• The pathophysiology of gliadin toxicity in celiac patients is poorly understood
• One hypothesis is that similarities between gliadin proteins and certain enteral pathogens may result in the immunologic response to antigens in gluten.

Pathophysiologyof Celiac Disease
• The current hypotheses:• Gliadin-sensitive T cells in
genetically predisposed individuals recognize gluten-derived peptide epitopes and develop an inflammatory response which produces mucosal damage

Pathophysiologyof Celiac Disease
• Genetic factors play an important role- there is significantly increased risk of celiac among family members
• A close association with the HLA-DQ2 and/or DQ8 gene locus has been recognized
• HLA-DQ2 is found in 98 percent of celiac patients from Northern Europe.
• However, ~25% of “normal” individuals in this population will also demonstrate HLA-DQ2

Current Model for Pathogenesis of Celiac Disease

Pathophysiologyof Celiac Disease
• HLA class II molecules are expressed on the surface of antigen-presenting cells
• They can bind to and subsequently present “foreign” peptides to populations of CD4 T cells that recognize the DQ2- or DQ8-peptide complex
KAGNOFF, MF. “Overview and Pathogenesis of Celiac Disease” GASTROENTEROLOGY 2005;128:S10–S18
![Page 81: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)
Role of Tissue Transglutaminase
• Tissue transglutaminase can deamidate glutamine, converting glutamine to negatively charged glutamic acid
• This renders these peptides better binders to the disease relevant DQ2 or DQ8 molecules
• Once bound to DQ2 or DQ8, the DQ-“gluten” peptide complexes activate DQ2 or DQ8 restricted T cells

Celiac Disease: Type 1 Diabetes
• An association between CD and type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) has been recognized for decades
• Several studies in children and adults, have shown that there is a 1.5% to 7% prevalence of CD in type 1 diabetes
• A community-based study of type 1 diabetics of all ages in Olmsted County, MN, revealed that 6.5% had celiac disease.

Celiac Disease: Type 1 Diabetes
• Untreated celiac disease may increase risk of developing type 1 diabetes
• Autoantibodies directed against islet cells are frequently present in untreated CD but disappear with the gluten-free diet
• Patients in whom CD was identified and treated in early childhood had a lower rate of developing diabetes than children in whom CD was diagnosed later in childhood or as adults

Diagnosis of Celiac: Gluten Rechallenge
• Gluten Rechallenge- improvement in symptoms and histology with gluten avoidance with a documented return of these features upon gluten reintroduction.
• May be performed by consuming 10 g of gluten per day (an amount contained in four slices of regular bread) for four to six weeks.
• One hazard of rechallenge is development of fulminant diarrhea, with dehydration, acidosis, and other metabolic disturbances ("gliadin shock").

Diagnosis of Celiac: Serologic Testing
• Some of the serologic tests used to diagnose celiac:• IgA and IgG antigliadin antibodies• IgA endomysial antibodies• IgA and IgG tissue transglutaminase
antibodies• Anti reticulin antibodies (no longer
used)
![Page 114: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/114.jpg)
• IgA and IgG antigliadin antibody tests are considered less accurate, less sensitive and less specific than other serologic tests.
• Frequent false positive results (15 to 20 %) often leads to unnecessary endoscopy with biopsy
• Therefore, antigliadin antibody is no longer recommended for initial diagnostic evaluation or screening

• Endomysial antibodies bind to connective tissue surrounding smooth muscle cells
• IgA endomysial antibodies bind to the
endomysium, producing a characteristic staining pattern, which is visualized by indirect immunofluorescence.
• IgA endomysial antibody testing is moderately sensitive and highly specific for untreated celiac disease

• The antigen against which antiendomysial antibodies are directed is a tissue transglutaminase (tTG)
• IgA anti-tTG antibodies testing by ELISA are considered easier to perform and less costly than the immunofluorescence assay used to detect IgA endomysial antibodies.
• Anti-tTG antibodies are both highly sensitive and specific

Management of Celiac Disease
• Gluten avoidance is the mainstay of treatment
• Prior to the introduction of a strict gluten-free diet, prognosis was very poor
• Mortality was 12 percent in one retrospective study of 544 children
![Page 121: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/121.jpg)
Management of Celiac Disease
In general, the following advice can be given to all patients:
• Foods containing wheat, rye, and barley should be avoided.
• Soybean or tapioca flours, rice, corn, buckwheat, and potatoes are safe.
• Read labels on prepared foods and condiments carefully (many stabilizers or emulsifiers contain gluten)
• Dairy products may need to be avoided initially- many patients have secondary lactose intolerance.
![Page 122: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/122.jpg)
Foods That May Contain Gluten
• Bouillon Cubes• Canned soups• Catsup• Cheese spreads• Chips and dips mixes• Hot chocolate mixes
or cocoa• Ice cream• Luncheon meats• Meat sauces (soy,
Worcestershire, etc)
• Mustard• Non-dairy creamer• Peanut butter• Processed canned
meats and poultry• Salad dressing• Soup mixes• Tomato sauces• Wieners and other
sausages products• Yogurt with fruit

Management of Celiac Disease
Serum IgA antigliadin titers at diagnosis and after 12 – 16 months of dietary therapy

![Page 124: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/124.jpg)
• A pretreatment antibody level should be determined at the time of diagnosis.
• Serologic testing is of no use if antibody levels are not elevated prior to therapy.
• Exclusion of gluten from the diet results in a gradual decline in serum IgA antigliadin and IgA tTG levels.
• A normal baseline value is typically reached within three to six months.
• If the levels do not fall as anticipated, the patient may be continuing to ingest gluten either intentionally or inadvertently

Celiac diseaseTreatment:1. Life-long gluten-free diet. Rice, potato
and maize are satisfactory sources of complex carbohydrates. Celiac societies publish booklets and guidelines for gluten-free diets which are available in many countries. Failure of treatment is due to non-compliance or unrecognized presence of gluten in diet.
2. Correct vitamin and mineral deficiencies.3. Rarely corticosteroids are required in
refractory cases.4. Regular follow up of compliance,
response and complications especially small intestinal carcinoma or T-cell lymphoma
![Page 126: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/126.jpg)
Tropical sprue
• Tropical sprue: is a malabsorption disease commonly found in the tropical regions, marked with abnormal flattening of the villi and inflammation of the small intestinal mucosa.
• Unrelated to gluten ingestion
![Page 127: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/127.jpg)
Causes
- No specific causal agent has been clearly associated with tropical sprue, but bacterial overgrowth by enterotoxigenic organisms ( e.g., E.coli and hemophilus ) has been implicated.
![Page 128: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/128.jpg)
Morphology
- Intestinal changes range from near normal to severe diffuse enteritis.
- Unlike celiac sprue, injury is seen at all levels of the small intestine.
- Patients frequently have folate and vitamin B12 deficiency, leading to enlargement of the nuclei of epithelial cells , reminiscent of the changes seen in pernicious anemia
![Page 129: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/129.jpg)
Symptoms
The symptoms of tropical sprue are:
- Diarrhea.
- Indigestion.
- Cramps.
- Weight loss and malnutrition.
- Fatigue.
![Page 130: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/130.jpg)
Signs
- Abnormal flattening of villi and inflammation of the lining of the small intestine, observed during an endoscopic procedure.
- Presence of inflammatory cell in the biopsy of small intestine tissue .
- Low levels of vitamins A, B12, E, D, and K, as well as albumin, calcium, and folate, revealed by a blood test.
- Excess fat in feces
![Page 131: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/131.jpg)
• The biopsy in tropical sprue will have less villous architectural alteration and more mononuclear cell infiltrate in the lamina propria.
• In contrast to celiac disease, the histologic features of tropical sprue are present with a similar degree of severity throughout the small intestine, and a gluten-free diet does not result in either clinical or histologic improvement in tropical sprue.
![Page 132: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/132.jpg)
Management
Prevention:- Preventions of tropical sprue include avoiding travel to the affected regions.
If you have to travel, remember to use only bottled water for drinking, brushing teeth, and
washing food .
-Nutritional deficiencies must also be corrected.
![Page 133: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/133.jpg)
Treatment:-
Treatment is usually 3 to 6 months of antibiotics (tetracycline) and folic acid supplements.
People with vitamin B12 deficiency will receive vitamin supplements as well.
![Page 134: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/134.jpg)
Malabsorption due to bacteral over growth of small bowel
Normal small intestine is bacterial sterile due to:
• Acid• Int. peristalsis (major)• Immunoglobulin
Cause of bacterial growth. e.g.
• Small intestinal diverticuli• Blind loop• Strictures• DM/ Scleroderma
![Page 135: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/135.jpg)

Pathophysiology
1) Bacterial over growth: Metabolize bile salt resulting in deconjugation of bile salt
- -- Bile Salt- Impaired intraluminal micelle formation® Malabsorption of fat.
2) Intestinal mucosa is damaged by - Bacterial invasion - Toxin - Metabolic products- Damage villi - may cause total villous
atrophy.

• Common problem
• Europe and U.S.A; 7-20% - Caucasians (lowest in north Europe) , 80-95% Native American, 65-75% Africans and African Americans, 50% Hispanics
• Eastern Asia, Jewish descent > 90%

Lactose intake
• Varies with age• Infants – 35-55% of daily calories ingested• Lactose intake falls as weaning foods are
introduced• Average adult ingests 300 gram of
carbohydrates per day (52% starch, 37% sucrose, 5% lactose (mainly in milk), 3% fructose)
![Page 147: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/147.jpg)
Lactose digestion and colonic salvage of nonabsorbed lactose

Etiology of lactose malabsorption
Primary lactose malabsorption
• Racial or ethnic lactose malabsorption
• Developmental lactase deficiency
• Congenital lactase deficiency
Secondary lactose malabsorption
• Bacterial overgrowth/stasis
• Mucosal injury of GIT that causes villus flattening
![Page 149: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/149.jpg)
Racial or ethnic lactose malabsorption
• Genetically determined reduction of lactase activity
• Most common form of lactose malabsorption
• The great majority of the world’s population develop low intestinal lactase during mid-childhood (approximately at age 5 yrs)
• This finding is most prominent in Asian and African populations; rare in Caucasians of Scandinavian background
• Molecular basis remains unknown
![Page 150: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/150.jpg)
Developmental lactase deficiency
• Low lactase levels as a consequence of prematurity
• Lactase activity in the fetus increases late in gestation
• Premature infants born at 28-32 weeks of gestation have a reduced lactase activity

Congenital lactase deficiency
• Rare autosomal recessive disorder (Finnish population)
• Characterized by the absence of lactase activity in the small intestine, with normal histologic findings
• A gene located on the same chromosome of the lactase gene, is responsible for CLD
• Affected infants have diarrhea from birth, hypercalcemia and nephrocalcinosis

Secondary lactose malabsorption
Bacterial overgrowth or stasis syndromes
• Increased fermentation of dietary lactose in the small bowel, leading to symptoms of lactose intolerance
• Suspected from clinical history and from a very early peak of breath hydrogen during lactose challenge
![Page 153: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/153.jpg)
Secondary lactose malabsorption - 2
Mucosal injuryVillus flattening or damage to the intestinal
epithelium
• Celiac disease • Crohn’s disease• Radiation enteritis, chemotherapy• HIV enteropathy• Whipple’s disease
![Page 154: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/154.jpg)
Secondary lactose malabsorption -3
• Lactase usually first affected disaccharidase in these disorders, because of its distal location on the villus
• Treatment of the primary disorder can lead to restoration of lactase activity
• Restoration of lactase activity lags behind the return of normal intestinal morphology
![Page 155: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/155.jpg)
Clinical manifestations
• Abdominal pain – crampy, localized to periumbilical area, or lower quadrant
• Bloating
• Flatulence
• Diarrhea
• Vomiting
• Stools are usually bulky, frothy and watery
![Page 156: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/156.jpg)
Clinical manifestations - 2
• Meals with higher osmolality and fat content slow gastric emptying and reduce the severity of symptoms
• Rapid intestinal motility rapid movement of sugar are more symptomatic
• Individuals have variable sensitivity to the abdominal distention produced when undigested lactose stimulates an influx of water into the lumen or to gas production
![Page 157: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/157.jpg)
Differential diagnosis
• Irritable bowel disease• Inflammatory bowel disease• Cystic fibrosis• Diverticulitis• Celiac sprue• Acute gastroenteritis• Giardiasis
![Page 158: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/158.jpg)
Diagnosis
Test absorption (lactose absorption test) or malabsorption (lactose breath hydrogen test)
Lactose tolerance test• Oral administration of 50 gram lactose• Blood glucose levels 0, 60 and 120 min• Increase of blood glucose by less than
20mg/dl + symptoms – diagnostic• False negative – diabetes, bacterial
overgrowth, delayed gastric emptying• Sensitivity of 75%, specificity of 96%
![Page 159: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/159.jpg)
Diagnosis - 2
Lactose breath hydrogen test• Oral lactose (2g/kg)• Breath hydrogen sampled at baseline and
at 30 min intervals for three hours• Breath hydrogen value of 10ppm – normal,
10-20ppm – indeterminate unless symptomatic, >20ppm – diagnostic
• False positive – recent smoking, false negative – recent use of antibiotics, lung disorders, 1% non-hydrogen producers
![Page 160: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/160.jpg)
Diagnosis -3
• Under the age of 5 years – abnormal test reflects an abnormal intestinal mucosa or bacterial overgrowth, both of which require further evaluation by appropriate diagnostic tests
• Normal breath hydrogen test – psychologic factors, intolerance to other factors in milk
![Page 161: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/161.jpg)
Treatment
In the absence of a correctable underlying disease, the treatment includes four general principles:
• Reduced dietary lactose intake• Substitution of alternative nutrient sources
to maintain energy and protein intake• Administration of a commercially available
enzyme substitute• Maintenance of calcium intake
![Page 162: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/162.jpg)
Dietary lactose restriction
• Highest concentration in milk and ice-cream, much lower quantities in cheese
• Complete restriction of lactose-containing foods should be necessary for a limited period to ascertain the specificity of the diagnosis
• Since patients can tolerate graded increases in lactose intake, small quantities of lactose may subsequently be reintroduced into the diet, with careful attention to development of symptoms
![Page 163: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/163.jpg)
Enzyme replacement
• Commercially available “lactase” preparations (bacterial or yeast beta galactosidases)
• Lactaid, Lactrase, LactAce, DairyEase and Lactrol
• Start with two Lactaid tablets with lactose ingestion, and adjust both the Lactaid dose and the lactose load to tolerance
![Page 164: kuliah melabsorbsi Unizar](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/55cf8f2c550346703b9996d8/html5/thumbnails/164.jpg)
Calcium intake
• Avoidance of milk and other dairy products can lead to reduced calcium intake, and increase in risk of osteoporosis and fracture
• Calcium carbonate• Tums – popular and effective• Infants and young children – liquid calcium
gluconate• Yogurt containing lactose is well tolerated
by the patients. The yogurt contains live cultures of bacteria that produce lactase
