The prevalence of fibromyalgia in gastrointestinal disease has been described mostly for celiac disease [53] and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). [ 53 ] [ 51 ] IBS and fibromyalgia share similar pathogenic mechanisms, involving immune system mast cells , inflammatory biomarkers, hormones , and neurotransmitters such as serotonin .
Small fiber peripheral neuropathy is a type of peripheral neuropathy that occurs from damage to the small unmyelinated and myelinated peripheral nerve fibers. These fibers, categorized as C fibers and small Aδ fibers , are present in skin , peripheral nerves , and organs. [ 1 ]
Congenital fiber type disproportion (CFTD) is an inherited form of myopathy with small type 1 muscle fibers that may occur in a number of neurological disorders. [3] It has a relatively good outcome and follows a stable course. [4] While the exact genetics is unclear, there is an association with mutations in the genes TPM3, ACTA1 and SELENON. [5]
The reasons why amyloid cause diseases are unclear. In some cases, the deposits physically disrupt tissue architecture, suggesting disruption of function by some bulk process. An emerging consensus implicates prefibrillar intermediates, rather than mature amyloid fibers, in causing cell death, particularly in neurodegenerative diseases.
Elastosis is the buildup of elastic fibers in tissues, and is a form of degenerative disease. [17] There are a multitude of causes, but the most commons cause is actinic elastosis of the skin, also known as solar elastosis , which is caused by prolonged and excessive sun exposure, a process known as photoaging .
Most Americans aren’t eating as much fiber ... (56% of participants). They were 18 to 45 years old, free of chronic disease and had either a normal BMI (18-24.9 kg/m2) or a BMI indicating ...
Fibrosis, also known as fibrotic scarring, is a pathological wound healing in which connective tissue replaces normal parenchymal tissue to the extent that it goes unchecked, leading to considerable tissue remodelling and the formation of permanent scar tissue.
