A nurse is caring for a preschooler who has a new diagnosis of celiac disease. Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?

A. Pale, oily stools: Celiac disease causes malabsorption due to an immune response to gluten, leading to steatorrhea. The stools are typically pale, foul-smelling, and oily because of impaired fat absorption. B. Redcurrant, jelly-like stools: This type of stool is characteristic of intussusception, a condition where part of the intestine telescopes into itself, causing bleeding and mucus, not celiac disease. C. Increased hemoglobin level: Children with celiac disease often experience iron deficiency anemia due to malabsorption, which lowers hemoglobin levels. An increase in hemoglobin would not be expected. D. Hematemesis: Vomiting blood is not a typical finding in celiac disease. It is more commonly associated with upper gastrointestinal bleeding from ulcers or esophageal varices.
