Key result
Chronic gluten enteropathy with severe steatorrhea may lead to a generalized peripheral neuropathy of the distal axonopathy type that responds to gluten restriction.
Why the study?
Does gluten restriction improve distal axonopathy in patients with chronic gluten enteropathy?
Does gluten restriction improve distal axonopathy in patients with chronic gluten enteropathy?
Gluten restriction may improve distal axonopathy in patients with chronic gluten enteropathy and severe steatorrhea.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May support gluten restriction for neuropathy in gluten enteropathy with steatorrhea; leaves open causality and need for controlled trials.
Kaplan et al. (1988) studied this question. Chronic gluten enteropathy with severe steatorrhea may lead to a generalized peripheral neuropathy of the distal axonopathy type that responds to gluten restriction.
