There are 3 main forms of gluten reactions:

- allergic (wheat allergy)
- autoimmune (celiac disease, dermatitis herpetiformis and gluten ataxia)
- possibly immune-mediated (gluten sensitivity)

From BMJ:

It is now becoming clear that, besides those with celiac disease or wheat allergy, there are patients with gluten sensitivity in whom neither allergic nor autoimmune mechanisms can be identified. It has been estimated that, for every person with celiac disease, there should be at least six or seven people with non-celiac gluten sensitivity. Gluten sensitivity may therefore affect 6-10% of the general population.

Patients with gluten sensitivity have negative immuno-allergy tests to wheat and negative celiac disease serology; normal endoscopy and biopsy; clinical symptoms that can overlap with those of celiac disease, irritable bowel syndrome, and wheat allergy; and they show a resolution of symptoms when started on a gluten-free diet.

Currently there are no laboratory biomarkers specific for gluten sensitivity, and the diagnosis is based on exclusion criteria; elimination of gluten-containing foods from the diet followed by an open challenge is most often used to establish whether health improves with the elimination or reduction of gluten from the patient’s diet.

New nomenclature and classifications are proposed (see the figures below).

"Fibromyalgia of the gut"

Some physician have labeled "gluten sensitivity" "fibromyalgia of the gut" to reflect the presence of symptoms in the absence of pathological findings. The BMJ editor-in-chief reflected on these doubts in an editorial: Gluten sensitivity: real or not?.

Since there are no biomarkers, gluten sensitivity is the ultimate diagnosis of exclusion. The worldwide shift to the Mediterranean diet may explain the rising prevalence of gluten sensitivity. The has been an “explosion of requests” for serological testing for celiac disease since 2007.

3 million Americans are living with celiac disease

Celiac disease, an immune system reaction to gluten in the diet, is four times as common today as it was 50 years ago. Lack of awareness of celiac could be contributing to a delay of up to 11 years in diagnosis of adults in North America (http://goo.gl/sy778).

This is an informative and beautifully designed video by the University of Chicago Celiac Disease Center. It looks like an infographic made into video - have a look:

New classification is being proposed for gluten-related disorders: celiac disease; dermatitis herpetiformis; gluten ataxia; wheat allergy; gluten sensitivity. WSJ, 2012.

Recent studies support the existence of the new condition nonceliac gluten sensitivity which is defined as symptoms with negative celiac antibodies and biopsy (http://goo.gl/57IlB).

DOCTOR ED DEHNE BELONGS IN THE BOXING HALL OF FAME
HERE ARE TWO BOXING PIONEER/LEADERS WHO SHOULD BE INDUCTED IF THIS IS TO BE A CREDIBLE HALL OF FAME. 1. Doctor Ed Dehne has to be inducted with the first group. He was the person who almost single handedly saved boxing from nationwide extinction when the American Medical Association (AMA) was hell-bent on having boxing banned back in the 1980s. "Doc" Dehne traveled the nation at his own expense and gave innumerable lectures expounding upon the many qualities of the sport. This was often to the chagrin of his medical associates; most of whom thought boxing was too brutal to be considered a sport. (From Physicians #39; Journal: Neurologists first called for boxing to be banned in 1983. "There is absolutely no way you can make boxing safe," said Nelson Richards, MD, a delegate from the American Academy of Neurology who proposed the original resolution to ban the sport in 1983). Just as importantly "Doc" Dehne was the only ring-side physician in Northern Nevada for that long period of time. He officiated from ringside for more than 3000 professional and amateur fights during those many years. The boxers he oversaw as the ring doctor is a plethora of famous pugilists.. from Sugar Ray Leonard to Teofilo Stevenson to Larry Holmes to Evander Holyfield.. and myriad pros and amateurs in between. "Doc" Dehne, himself, was a world-class boxer in the 1930s; having had fights with a Who #39;s Who of famous boxers and holding his own all the time; while working his way through Medical School at ...From:Sam DehneViews:12 0ratingsTime:02:06More inNews Politics

daniel kate | imaginary world
Please watch in 720p. song info at the end of the video 🙂 "an outside love moves on, to an imaginary world.." Lalala. Soooo yeah I should spend my days studying now more than ever but instead I am just procrastinating and vegas is "helping" me a lot with that xD First of all I have to say: GO WATCH PERCEPTION! You will not regret it. It is so amazing, I like to say it #39;s a mix between Castle and House. It #39;s the story of this university professor who is a neurology doctor and a genius but he suffers from paranoid schizophrenia, so he is a bit quirky. One of his former students, Kate, is now an FBI detective and he helps her with her cases, but he is helped by his own subconscious that manifests itself through hallucinations of people he sees who help him solve the crimes. I don #39;t know if it #39;s clear, but it is so good, really! And unfortunately it #39;s only ten episodes, so it #39;s also very fast to watch 😉 I came across it because they #39;re airing it on tv here right now. I had promised myself not to download it and to just watch it week by week as it aired. Yeah, right xD I lasted two weeks then I downloaded and watched the whole series in two or three days, just because I wanted to take it slow and savor it :3 Though the more I watch it, the more I want to re-watch She #39;s All That lol As always, I need to say some nice things about the song 😉 well I love Athlete and I know most people only know Street Map and Rubik #39;s Cube but they #39;ve made some other wonderful songs as well, and ...From:ItalianRoryViews:74 14ratingsTime:01:26More inEntertainment

Individual Treatment Effects and Randomized Controlled Trials
David M. Kent, MD, MSc, associate professor of Medicine, Neurology, and Clinical and Translational Science at Tufts Medical Center, describes the limitations of randomized control trials in identifying individual treatment effects. To offset these limitations, he recommends researchers routinely risk stratify their trial populations since risk modeling is a fundamental determinant of the opportunity for treatment benefit. We spoke with Dr. Kent during "The Myth of Average: Why Individual Patient Differences Matter," a conference focusing on issues related to individual treatment effects.From:npcnowViews:0 0ratingsTime:02:05More inScience Technology

Your relationship with money maybe deeper than you think. The recent development of the Neuroeconomic field (the melding of psychology, neurology, and finances) leaves little doubt that our perspective of money is deeply ingrained within us and is often tied to our past.

Hari Sharma #39;s Guest Lecture Neurology, Univ Miami School of Medicine Nov 16, 2012
Hari Sharma together with Aruna Sharma from Uppsala University, Sweden visited Miller School of Medicine, University of Miami to meet Dr Dileep R Yavagal. He organized a Special Guest Lecture for Hari Sharma on Nanomedicine in the department of Neurology that was attended by key experts including Stroke Research Pioneer Prof. Myron Ginsberg. The lecture was highly appreciated. Although one scientist has some personal problems and he tried to knockout the basics of neurotoxicology due to perhaps personal psychological problems. But these things are common in some places so this was fun for Hari Sharma to answer him even he appeared not convincing on facts but continue to argue. Finally when he saw that we are actively co-operating with Chinese Govt and Military organization he left the room hurriedly and escaped.
