Autoimmune Pancreatitis : A New Concept
In isolated autoimmune pancreatitis macroscopic findings may consist in a diffuse enlargement of the whole pancreas, but localised enlargement of the pancreatic head or tail has also been described (1,6,7,8). This enlargement seems to be secondary to the inflammatory process and may completely reverse with corticosteroid therapy (1,6,7,8).
Vit D and autoimmune Jan 2010
Current studies have related vitamin D deficiency with several autoimmune disorders, including insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), multiple sclerosis (MS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and rheumatoid arthritis (RA).1-4 In view of those associations, it has been suggested that vitamin D is an ...

ICD has traditionally grouped diseases by aetiology and by affected organ system. For ICD11 the creation of a new chapter for multisystem disorders has been proposed. The following text sets out the rationale for and the possible scope of a multisystem disorders chapter.

Like other autoimmune diseases, a hereditary component or susceptibility is present; in addition, there is suspected to be one or more environmental or behavioral “triggers”; Studies in identical twins reveal a concordance rate (both twins having RA) of 12-15%; in dizygotic twins, who share the same amount of genetic material as siblings ...
