CELIAC celiac disease now often presents later between the ages of 10 and 40. • Classic disease • The classic definition of celiac disease or gluten-sensitive enteropathy includes the following three features: villous atrophy; symptoms of malabsorption such as steatorrhea, weight loss, or other signs of nutrient or vitamin deficiency ; and resolution of the mucosal lesions and symptoms upon withdrawal of gluten-containing foods, usual within a few weeks to months
Atypical celiac disease • Patients with atypical disease exhibit only minor gastrointestinal complaints. A number of nongastrointestinal manifestations of celiac disease have been described. Metabolic bone disease is common in celiac disease and can occur in patients without gastrointestinal symptoms. These patients have secondary hyperparathyroidism that is probably due to vitamin D deficiency Osteomalacia due to vitamin D deficiency that is also sometimes seen, although its exact prevalence is unknown
Celiac diagnosis • The serologic test (IgA-tTG) could be falsely negative. IgA or IgGgliadin peptide antibody testing may be useful. However a small bowel biopsy is needed to make a diagnosis. • HLA typing for DQ2 (DQA1*05; DQB1*02) and DQ8 (DQA1*03; DQB1*0302) may be useful in individuals with equivocal small bowel histologic findings since celiac disease is unlikely if neither is present • Non-celiac gluten sensitivity • It remains unclear whether there is a category of patients with symptomatic response to gluten but without serologic evidence of celiac disease, termed nonceliac gluten sensitivity

Loss of calcium from circulation • Hyperphosphatemia • Tumor lysis syndrome • Acute pancreatitis • Acute respiratory alkalosis • Acute sever illness • Osteoblastic metastasis
Osteoblastic metastases • , with increased calcium uptake and utilisation: primarily carcinoma of the prostate or breast but also reported in gastrointestinal, lung, thyroid, salivary gland, and neuroendocrine cancer. In the rare osteosclerotic myeloma with or without POEMS syndrome, the same mechanism probably underlieshypocalcaemia.

Postgrad Med. 2017 Mar;129(2):299-303..Generalized high bone mineral density on bone density scanning: a case of gastric carcinoma with bone metastasis.Fan P1, Wang Q1, Lu C1, Chen D1. • This article reported that a 41-year-old female was referred for lumbago. She did not complain of any symptoms in the digestive system. DXA revealed high BMD in the lumbar vertebras. Marked increase in bone mass was observed in an X-ray of chest compared with one conducted 6 months previously. Additionally, an X-ray of the axial skeleton showed diffuse sclerotic change. Laboratory data revealed hypocalcemia and high osteoblastic activity. A bone biopsy of the pelvis confirmed metastatic undifferentiated adenocarcinoma. Further research for the primary site revealed gastric signet ring cell carcinoma via endoscopic biopsy.

A 56-year-old female patient was admitted to our hospital with complaints of headache and tumor of the right parietal bone. A plain skull X-ray showed hyperostotic feature of the right parietal bone. CT scan displayed that right parietal bone became thick and osteoblastic. Soft tissue was shown in the hyperostotic bone under MRI. An external carotid angiogram showed that the skull tumor was fed by the middle meningeal artery. The skull tumor and 2 solid intracerebral tumors were extirpated. Histological examination revealed adenocarcinoma in the skull and intracerebral lesions. The present case indicates that osteoblastic stimulating factor may be secreted by lung cancer.
