Abstract

G A A b st ra ct s sprue and intestinal lymphoma. 4 Anti-enterocyte antibodies and/or rapid response to corticosteroid treatment (prednisone 40 mg, PO, daily for 7 days) The rapid response to corticosteroid treatment is a useful criterion in diagnosing AIE, while awaiting the result of antienterocyte antibodies. We do not recommend malnutrition to be a diagnostic criterion, as with more awareness, patients are expected to be diagnosed earlier. The presence of other autoimmune antibodies or diseases is supportive but not necessary in making the diagnosis of AIE.
