Post 5: The Bibliography Game

Hadjivassiliou, Marios, et al. "Gluten Sensitivity: From Gut To Brain." Lancet Neurology 9.(2010): 318-330. ScienceDirect. Web. 23 Feb. 2015.

This article discusses some of the different neurological manifestations celiac disease may cause while also discussing possible reasons behind the manifestations. Half of the article looks at the two most prominent theories behind how celiac disease can cause neurological diseases—this is helpful because my literature review compares and contrasts the two theories.

Kinney, H C, et al. "Degeneration Of The Central Nervous System Associated With Celiac Disease." Journal Of The Neurological Sciences 53.1 (1982): 9-22. MEDLINE Complete. Web. 23 Feb. 2015.

This article, obtained from the bibliography of the article above it, is a report on a 57-year old man who had developed a “progressive and fatal neurological disorder despite medical and nutritional care” (9).  The study shows how the failure to diagnose this man with celiac disease caused his neurological disorder. Further, this case study supports one of the theories behind the link between celiac disease and neurological disorders—information that may be useful in my literature review.

Morris, J S, A B Ajdukiewicz, and A E Read. "Neurological Disorders And Adult Coeliac Disease." Gut 11.7 (1970): 549-554. MEDLINE Complete. Web. 23 Feb. 2015.

This article, obtained from the bibliography of the article above it, is an investigation into 30 patients who have been diagnosed with celiac disease and neurological disorders. The study looks at nerve conduction and concludes that people diagnosed with celiac disease have the same nerve conduction rates as people without celiac disease. This information is helpful in my literature review because it also supports the same theory of the article above.
