Celiac disease or gluten sensitivity may initially present as one or more neurological signs and/or symptoms. On the other hand, it may be associated with or complicated by neurological manifestations. Neurological presentations are rare in children but as many as 36% of adult patients present with neurological changes. With severe malnutrition after progression of celiac disease, different vitamin deficiencies may develop. Such problems can in turn overlap with previous neurological abnormalities including ataxia, epilepsy, neuropathy, dementia, and cognitive disorders. In this study, we aimed to review the neurological aspects of celiac disease. Early diagnosis and treatment could prevent related disability in patients with celiac disease.
乳糜泻或麸质敏感最初可能表现为一种或多种神经体征和/或症状。另一方面,它可能与神经表现相关或并发神经表现。神经症状在儿童中很少见,但多达36%的成年患者会出现神经变化。乳糜泻进展后出现严重营养不良时,可能会出现不同的维生素缺乏。这些问题反过来可能与先前的神经异常重叠,包括共济失调、癫痫、神经病变、痴呆和认知障碍。在本研究中,我们旨在综述乳糜泻的神经方面。早期诊断和治疗可以预防乳糜泻患者的相关残疾。
