Hypertransaminasemia is a common extra-intestinal manifestation of celiac disease. ⋯ Hypertransaminasemia is more often detected in young children with early manifestation of the disease, increases with the deepening of atrophy in the mucous membrane of the small intestine. Higher titers of celiac-specific antibodies were detected in children with hypertransaminasemia.

Despite the well-studied pathogenesis, the etiology of autoimmune liver disease (AILD) remains unknown. ⋯ In our work, we have demonstrated the relationship of past hepatitis A, B, E and AILD, as well as the high risk of developing severe fibrosis in patients with AILD and markers of hepatitis A and B viruses indicates the possible involvement of these viruses in the pathogenesis of AILD.

The article describes a rare diagnosis of monomorphic epitheliotropic intestinal T-cell lymphoma (MEITL), due to its veiled by a number of so-called "masks" of enteropathies. A detailed analysis of all clinical, morphological and immunohistochemical data made it possible to establish the correct diagnosis. The revealed pathology is extremely rare in practice, even among specialists in hematology. The article demonstrates the main stages of both a complex diagnosis and an attempt at therapy for this aggressive form of intestinal lymphoma.

Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) is a critical host factor in determining the composition of the gut microbiota. Diseases that cause exocrine insufficiency can affect the gut microbiome, which can potentiate disease progression and complications. To date, the relationship of exocrine insufficiency in various pancreatic (PA) pathologies, in chronic pancreatitis (CP), with dysbiotic changes in the intestinal microbiota (IM) has not been reliably studied. The available data are heterogeneous and contradictory, which determines the need for further research. ⋯ The results of the study show that patients with CP of various etiologies and patients with severe EPI who underwent specific intervention on the pancreas have intestinal microbiota dysbiosis, the severity of which is significantly influenced by the degree of EPI.

To compare the effect of a diet low in fermentable oligo-, di-, monosaccharides and polyols (fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides and polyols - FODMAP) and rebamipide on carbohydrate tolerance and disaccharidases activity in patients with maldigestive enteropathy (ENMP). ⋯ The clinical symptoms of fermentable carbohydrate intolerance and increased membrane enzyme activity are reduced by a low FODMAP diet in patients with ENMT, but clinical symptoms of food intolerance reappear when switching to a normal diet. Treatment with rebamipide improves food tolerance and consistently increases the activity of TSOTS enzymes after 4 and 8 weeks.
