Some of the most common diseases that are generally categorized as autoimmune include coeliac disease, type 1 diabetes, Graves' disease, inflammatory bowel diseases (such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis), multiple sclerosis, alopecia areata, [9] Addison's disease, pernicious anemia, psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and systemic lupus ...
There are two predominant cancers associated with coeliac disease, cancer of the esophagus and lymphoproliferative diseases such as gluten-sensitive enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma (EATL). [115] For non-EATL cancers it is thought the mineralemias such as zinc and selenium may play a role in increasing risk. [19]
TCF19: transcription factor 19 (6p21.33) TCP11: t-complex 11 (6p21.31) TJAP1: tight junction associated protein 1 (6p21.1) TP53COR1 encoding protein Tumor protein p53 pathway corepressor 1 (non-protein coding) TMEM151B: encoding protein Transmembrane protein 151B; TNXB: tenascin XB (6p21.3) TRAM2: translocation associated membrane protein 2 ...
The widely used [21] rule calculating normal maximum ESR values in adults (98% confidence limit) is given by a formula devised in 1983 from a study of ≈1000 individuals over the age of 20: [22] The normal values of ESR in men is age (in years) divided by 2; for women, the normal value is age (in years) plus 10, divided by 2.

[13] [14] Non-infectious causes include vasculitis, deep vein thrombosis, connective tissue disease, side effects of medication or vaccination, and cancer. [ 13 ] [ 15 ] It differs from hyperthermia , in that hyperthermia is an increase in body temperature over the temperature set point, due to either too much heat production or not enough heat ...
People that are exposed to the particles released from coal mining experience illnesses such as rheumatoid arthritis and pneumoconiosis. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA): This disease is both an autoimmune and an inflammatory disease. The disease causes the human immune system to attack healthy cells in the body because it believes that they are a threat.
[11] [143] Other medical illnesses that should be ruled out are endocrine disease or metabolic disorder (hypothyroidism, hyperparathyroidism, acromegaly, vitamin D deficiency), gastro-intestinal disease (celiac and non-celiac gluten sensitivity), infectious diseases (Lyme disease, hepatitis C and immunodeficiency disease) and the early stages ...
Some diseases primarily affect or are exclusively found in women, such as lupus, breast cancer, cervical cancer, or ovarian cancer. [80] The medical practice dealing with female reproduction and reproductive organs is called gynaecology ("science of women"). [81] [82]
