A case study of a toddler with Celiac Disease
REGINA PHALANGE
Danielle Selden, Alicia Armeli, Brooke Atterbury, and Ryan
Brilhante
CLIENT: REGINA PHALANGE
• 3.5 year old, toddler, female • Weight: 14.35 Kg/ 98.75 cm/ BMI: 14.6 (22nd
percentile)• Recent decline in weight and eating habits
caused Regina’s mom to take her into the doctor.
• Bowel movements have changed in the past two months, diarrhea is common almost daily.
• Hard to get Regina to eat at times her “tummy hurts”; her mother is worried she may have a food allergy.
• Her mother is also concerned she is not getting her daily nutritional requirements, she does not want this to affect her growth and development.
• Regina’s favorite treat is her “fruity Pebbles” (made with rice) because they don’t give her a tummy ache. Her mom is having trouble getting her to eat anything else.
Atopic food intolerances seen in her mother and grandmother
Father had eczemaPaternal grandfather has IBS
FAMILY HISTORY:
Typical healthy 3-year old with minor health concerns:
Eczema since she was born. Normal height and weight development. Irregular eating habits and bowel movements
did not develop until 2 months ago.
REGINA’S PAST MEDICAL HISTORY:
How Active is Regina?
PHYSICAL ACTIVITY LEVEL:
Average 3 year old play until a couple months ago:
• Plays at preschool- runs around a lot
• Plays at the park- swings and jungle gym
• Plays with “Spot” her dog• Rides her tricycle • She is now “cranky” and
doesn’t play as much as she used to because she is tired.
• frequency: Daily activity at home and school
Regina’s weight measurements are in the 50 th percentile except the last weight measurement (40 th percentile).
Stature For Age has remained at 63 rd percentile
2 years old; 12.1kg/ 86.2cm 2.5 years old: 13kg/ 91.3cm 3 years old: 13.8kg/ 95.3cm3.5 years old: 14.36kg/ 98.75cm (40 th percentile)
Measurements were taken every 6 months for the past 2 years
EVALUATION OF REGINA’S WEIGHT
AMDR’sCarbohydrates: 45-65% of kcal per day, 732kcal, 183gFats: 30-35% of kcal per day, 512Kcal, 57gProtein: 5-20% of kcal per day, 220kcal, 55g
~protein 1.1g/kg/day
DAILY MACRONUTRIENT RECOMMENDATIONS:
Regina has been very tired lately even though she gets 8 hours of sleep a night.
Breakfast in the morning with mom and dadShe has dinner nightly with the family. Her parents
are having a hard time getting her to eat “certain things”
Sometimes she does not finish her food because her “tummy hurts”, evidence is seen in her “runny” stools.
Goes to preschool 3 days a week Goes to daycare 4 days a weekShe gets a daily snack of graham crackers at daycare
LIFESTYLE FACTORS
Breakfast: Oatmeal with maple and brown sugar (1 pkg.)Milk (6 fl. Oz)
Morning Snack:Animal crackers (4)
Lunch:Peanut butter & Jelly Sandwich (1/2)Apple-slices (1/2)Milk (6 fl. Oz.)
Afternoon Snack:Strawberry yogurt tube (1)Chocolate chip cookie (1)
REGINA’S “TYPICAL” DIET – BEFORE DIET:
Dinner:Chicken nuggets (4)White rice (3 Tbsp.)Peas (3 Tbsp.)Milk (6 fl. Oz)
Evening Snack:Chocolate milk (6 fl. Oz)
REGINA’S BEFORE DIET CONTINUED:
Based on estimated nutritional needs Macro nutrients within AMDR:
Protein: 14% (AMDR 5-20%) Fat: 32% (AMDR 30-35%) Carbohydrate: 55% (AMDR 45-65%) Iron (119% RDI) Calcium (171% RDI) Zinc (167% RDI)
Concerns: The following nutrients are too low: Omega 3 fatty acids Vitamin A Vitamin D Vitamin E Vitamin K Potassium
EVALUATION OF BEFORE DIET:
ETIOLOGY OF GLUTEN
INTOLERANCE: The cause is unknown, like most autoimmune diseases: • One out of 133 in the US is affected with with
CD. • CD occurs in 5-15% of the offspring and siblings
of a person with CD. • In 70% identical twin pairs, both twins have the
disease. • It is strongly suggested that family members are
tested. • Family members who have an autoimmune
disease are at a 25% increase risk of having CDCELIAC DISEASE IS NOT A FOOD ALLERGY: its an autoimmune disease. Food allergies, including wheat allergy, are conditions that people can sometimes grow out of. This is NOT the case with Celiac Disease.
An Autoimmune disease characterized by inflammation of the small intestine lining resulting from a genetically based intolerance to a component of gluten. The inflammation produces diarrhea, fatty stools, weight loss, and vitamin and mineral deficiencies.
AKA: Tropical spruce and gluten-sensit ive enteropathy.
WHAT IS CELIAC DISEASE?
When people that have CD eat foods that contain gluten, it creates an immune-mediated toxic reaction that causes damage to the small intestine and does not allow food to be properly absorbed.
Damage can happen even when there are no symptoms present.
WHAT HAPPENS IN CELIAC DISEASE
Those who have a genetic susceptibility to the protein gliadin found in the gluten component of wheat, rye, and barley. Oats do NOT contain gluten, but commercial oats and oat products may be cross-contaminated by grains that do.
People who have one or both of the gene variance HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8
People who have lactose intolerance are more susceptible, as these disorders are often seen together.
It is common in Scandinavians, Italians, Irish, British, South Americans, Eastern Europeans, Pakistanis, Cubans, and North Africans.
WHO IS AT RISK FOR CELIAC DISEASE?
Symptoms of CD:GI symptoms: inflammation of the SI mucosa resulting in diarrhea, weight loss, abdominal pain, anorexia, abdominal distention, flatulence
Can result in malabsorption of nutrientsNon-GI symptoms: iron-deficiency anemia, dermatitis herpetiformis, eczema, chronic fatigue, joint pain, migraines, depression, ADD, epilepsy, osteoporosis/osteopenia, infertility and/or recurrent fetal loss, short stature, failure to thrive, delayed puberty, dental enamel defects, and autoimmune disorders
LITERATURE REVIEW OF CELIAC DISEASE
Diagnosis: Small-bowel biopsy Improvement on a gluten-free diet Stool examination for malabsorption of nutrients Measurement of specific serum antibodies (i.e., Tissue
transglutaminase, Antigliadin) Presence of specific pairs of allele variants in HLA (MFC)
producing genes (HLA-DQA1 and HLA-DQB1) Key factors that influence the effi ciency of gluten presentation
include: (1) the level of gluten intake, (2) the enzyme tissue transglutaminase 2 which modifies gluten into high affi nity binding peptides for HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8, (3) the HLA-DQ typeHLA-DQ2 binds a wider range of gluten peptides than HLA-DQ8! (4) the level of gene expression of HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8 (5) additional genetic polymorphisms that may influence T cell reactivity
Presence of CD-associated HLA alleles is not diagnostic of CD; however, their absence essentially excludes a diagnosis of CD.
LITERATURE REVIEW CONT.
Management: Strict, life-long GF diet (avoid wheat, barley, rye) Treatment of nutritional deficiencies that may occur
(iron, zinc, calcium, fat-soluble vitamins, folic acid); standard treatment of osteoporosis
Genetic Counseling: CD results from the interaction of HLA-DQA1 and HLA-
DQB1 gene variants known to be associated with CD susceptibility, less well-recognized variants in non-HLA genes, gliadin (a subcomponent of gluten), and other environmental factors.
Since it appears to have atopic tendencies, genetic information is available for at-risk relatives.
LITERATURE REVIEW CONT.
Gluten: A protein found in wheat, oats, barley, rye, and triticale, (all in the genus Triticum); gliadin is the toxic fraction of gluten
Gluten is a common name for the proteins in specific grains that are harmful to persons with celiac disease. THESE MUST BE ELIMINATED FROM THE DIET.
Gluten creates an immune-mediated toxic reaction
GLUTEN’S ROLE
Gluten-Free: A food labeling term that indicates a product does not contain any species of wheat, rye, barley, or their hybrids, or ingredients that contain these grains, or 20 or more parts per million (ppm) gluten (about 6 mg per servings). (FDA-proposed definition.)
Adhering to a diet that contains non-gluten containing items.
Living a lifestyle without Gluten containing foods.
