In this episode of GI101, host Dr. Christina G. Gonzales, DMSc, MPAS, PA-C, reviews Celiac Disease, an autoimmune disorder triggered by gluten ingestion that leads to small intestinal villous atrophy and malabsorption. You’ll learn hallmark features such as chronic diarrhea, weight loss, iron deficiency anemia, and dermatitis herpetiformis, along with key diagnostic testing including tissue transglutaminase (tTG-IgA) antibodies and confirmatory biopsy. We’ll also cover associated autoimmune conditions and the cornerstone of management—a strict lifelong gluten-free diet. Perfect for PANCE prep and strengthening your understanding of malabsorptive disorders.
