| gluten | <protein> The protein of wheat and other grains which gives to the dough its tough elastic character. (18 Nov 1997) |
|---|---|
| gluten enteropathy | <gastroenterology> An inherited disease where the intestinal lining is inflamed in response to the ingestion of a protein known as gluten. Gluten is present in many grains including rye, oats, barley and triticale. Symptoms in infants include diarrhoea, slow growth, bloody stools, weight loss, vomiting and clay-coloured stools. Symptoms in adults include abdominal distention, abdominal pain, fatigue, weight loss, bone pain and bone tenderness. Treatment involves the life-long avoidance of gluten. Origin: Gr. Pathos = disease (27 Sep 1997) |
| gluten-free diet | Elimination of all wheat, rye, barley, and oat gluten from the diet; treatment for gluten-sensitive enteropathy (coeliac disease). See: coeliac disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| enteropathy, gluten | A condition in which the absorption of food nutrients through the small intestine is impaired because of an immune (allergic) reaction to gluten, a protein found in wheat or related grains and many other foods. Frequent diarrhoea and weight loss can be symptoms. A skin condition called dermatitis herpetiformis can be associated with gluten enteropathy. The most accurate test is a biopsy of the involved small bowel. Treatment is avoidance of gluten in the diet. Medications are used, if need be. (12 Dec 1998) |
| acute ataxia | Generalised ataxia of abrupt onset, most often caused by drug intoxications, poisonings, or vestibular neuronitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ataxia | <neurology> Failure of muscular coordination, irregularity of muscular action. Origin: Gr. Taxis = order (16 Dec 1997) |
| ataxia cordis | <cardiology> A condition where there is disorganised electrical conduction in the atria, resulting in ineffective pumping of blood into the ventricle. Acronym: AF (02 Jan 1998) |
| ataxia of calves | A specific cerebellar ataxia in the Jersey breed, probably a recessive genetic trait. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ataxia of lambs | Myelination failure seen in ewes on a copper-deficient diet. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ataxia-telangiectasia | <neurology, oncology> An intriguing autosomal recessive disorder in which a single defective gene produces myriad and protean effects, presents with cerebellar ataxia, telangiectasias in the eyes and skin, immune deficiency and autoimmune phenomena, propensity for lymphoid and other malignancies, excessive sensitivity to ionising radiation, increased serum alpha-fetoprotein concentrations and a tendency for chromosome breakage and translocation. A syndrome characterised by choreoathetosis beginning in childhood, progressive cerebellar ataxia, telangiectasis of conjunctiva and skin, slowly progressive mental deterioration and increasing cerebellar degeneration. There is evidence that heterozygotes show an increased susceptibility to malignancy as well, with breast cancer often cited. The gene was localised by linkage studies to chromosome 11q22-23, and recently cloned, revealing it to be homologous to the PI-3 kinase family so that prenatal diagnosis by RFLP analysis is possible. Other related genes are suspected to exist. Diagnosis in affected patients is made on clinical grounds, by detection of high concentrations of alpha-fetoprotein, and by a specialised cell culture assay for radiosensitivity and atypical radioresistant DNA synthesis. These cell culture methods are also used for prenatal diagnosis. A characteristic autopsy feature of ataxia-telangiectasia is the presence of empty basket cells in the cerebellum which results from degeneration of the previously contained Purkinje cells. Inheritance: autosomal recessive. (16 Dec 1998) |

| Briquet's ataxia | Weakening of the muscle sense and increased sensibility of the skin, in hysteria. Synonym: hysterical ataxia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Bruns ataxia | Difficulty in initiation of movements of the feet when they are in contact with the ground; a condition related to a frontal lobe lesion. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vasomotor ataxia | A form of autonomic ataxia causing irregularity in the peripheral circulation, marked by alternations of pallor and suffusion, due to spasm of the smaller blood vessels. (05 Mar 2000) |
