Presentation
BACKGROUND Celiac disease is a hypersensitivity enteropathy that can have various presentations in adults. Rarely, patients can present with severe lab abnormalities, dehydration and weight loss caused by celiac disease - a celiac crisis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Intravenous Drugs
Women in the NFHL cohort seemed to be particularly vulnerable to inadequate dietary intake, which may be explained by their lower socioeconomic status and the large proportion who were former or current intravenous drug users. [doi.org]
Urogenital

Amenorrhea
The rate of induction of ovulation with clomiphene was 95% of 40 patients with 1st grade amenorrhea, while only 3.9% of 54 patients with and grade amenorrhea ovulated following treatment clomiphene. [dl.ndl.go.jp]
-
Secondary Amenorrhea
All patients developed secondary amenorrhea and 80% of 243 patients were young, unmarried women. More than half of the patients had consciously restricted food intake for cosmetic reasons. [dl.ndl.go.jp]
Workup
She had a nonrevealing neurology workup and a largely normal rheumatology workup apart from mild elevation in her inflammatory markers. She also had a nonfocal examination apart from a posterior cervical lymph node (2 1 cm). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Gastric Fistula
There are often a lot of adherences between the gastric pouch and the residual stomach, which makes the dissection difficult and tedious, with the possibility to devascularize the residual stomach and lead to a gastric fistula from this residual stomach [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Other Test Results
-
Increased Basal Metabolic Rate
RESULTS: Treatment produced weight loss, reducing fat mass, visceral fat, lipid and blood glucose profiles while increasing basal metabolic rate. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Treatment
[…] for drug treatment or bariatric surgery, and by high-challenging weight loss targets. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Subject attrition was about equal across all treatment groups, suggesting all treatments were perceived as active. Citing Literature Number of times cited according to CrossRef: 14 Melvin A. Gravitz and Roger A. [doi.org]
Prognosis
Based on the age of the patient, R.E.N.A.L nephrometry score of the tumor and the lack of data on the prognosis of this histological subtype in a climate of long-term immunosuppression, we elected for radical nephrectomy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The prognosis for thymoma is excellent when it is found in the early stages. Tuberculosis (TB) Mycobacterium tuberculosis is the bacterium that causes tuberculosis (TB). [medicinenet.com]
Also, the prognosis or healing prospects of a disease can serve for its classification. spontaneously healing curable by treatment incurable Diseases that cause a significant weight loss and an increasing weakness of the organism are called consuming [flexikon.doccheck.com]
Patients with advanced COPD are in a state of undernutrition, referred to as pulmonary cachexia; the exercise performance and quality of life (QOL) of these patients are deteriorated, the vital prognosis is unfavorable, and the medico-economic burden [doi.org]
Etiology
The etiology of weight loss is discussed for 2 main categories: inadequate nutrient intake and altered metabolism. Finally, studies of interventions to treat HIV-associated weight loss and wasting are discussed. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Epidemiology
Epidemiological and laboratory studies have shown that obesity is associated with increased incidence of pancreatic cancer and potentially worse cancer outcome. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Pathophysiology
Owing to its pathophysiology, this condition is managed by both medical and surgical specialities. When medical management fails neurosurgeons commonly treat idiopathic intracranial hypertension by permanent cerebrospinal fluid peritoneal shunting. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The roles of adipokines in the pathophysiology of COPD have begun to receive attention recently, and not only their regulatory effects on appetite and nutritional status, but also their influence on systemic inflammation have been increasingly clarified [doi.org]
