Background: Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Disorders beyond Eosinophilic Esophagitis (non-EoE EGIDs) are chronic rare inflammatory disorders characterized by eosinophilic infiltration of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract.
Case Presentation: We report the first pediatric case of eosinophilic duodenitis (one type of the non-EoE EGIDs) with concomitant pancreatic reaction that was misdiagnosed as acute pancreatitis (AP). A 13-year-old girl was admitted to our hospital for a week of abdominal distension, vomiting, and epigastric pain that worsened recently.

A considerable number of the physiological functions of extracellular vesicles are conditioned by the protein corona attached to their surface. The composition of this corona is initially defined during their intracellular synthesis, but it can be subsequently modified by interactions with the microenvironment. Here, we evaluated how the corona of small extracellular vesicles exposed to the inflammatory environment generated in acute pancreatitis is modified and what functional changes occur as a result of these modifications.

Introduction: Systemic lupus erythematosus is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting women, causing gastrointestinal issues like acute pancreatitis, esophagitis, and protein-losing enteropathy. Protein loss is uncommon, but a case study shows protein-losing enteropathy as a first sign.
Importance: Protein-losing enteropathy (PLE) is a rare gastrointestinal manifestation of SLE, often seen years before diagnosis.
Eosinophilic gastroenteritis is characterized by eosinophilic infiltration of the stomach and intestine. It is a rare disorder with bizarre presentations, making it difficult to diagnose and often leading to misdiagnoses. It can present with abdominal pain, diarrhea, vomiting, obstruction, ascites, etc.
