Every FMK condition
299 diseases, deficiencies, toxicities and drug mechanisms harvested from every FMK deck — the ones sprinkled through a single bullet as much as the ones with their own slide. Pick what you're given and what you have to name, or let it cycle; distractors come from the same category so you have to discriminate (hypoketotic vs. ketotic hypoglycemia, which GSD, which urea-cycle enzyme…). Every answer shows the whole card with the lecture and slide.

Celiac disease (gut damage causing malabsorption) Acquired / not inherited
Defect / target: Autoimmune small-intestinal mucosal damage (gluten-triggered) impairing brush-border enzymes and transporters
Mechanism: Gluten-driven immune injury flattens villi, so lactase/sucrase and SGLT-1/GLUT-5/GLUT-2 are lost and carbohydrates are malabsorbed.
· ↓ Deficient: Brush-border disaccharidases and transporters
Presentation: Chronic diarrhea, bloating, weight loss, secondary lactose intolerance
Labs: Anti-tissue transglutaminase IgA, villous atrophy on biopsy
Treatment: Gluten-free diet
