background: coeliac disease is triggered by ingestion of gluten-containing cereals in genetically susceptible subjects. the aim of the study was to analyze correlation between serum antiendomysial antibody and antiglidin antibody and the grade of pathology in small intestine mucosa in children with celiac disease. materials and methods: this cross-sectional analysis was carried out in a group o...

CONTEXT Studies of mortality in celiac disease have not taken small-intestinal pathology into account. OBJECTIVE To examine mortality in celiac disease according to small-intestinal histopathology. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PATIENTS Retrospective cohort study. We collected data from duodenal/jejunal biopsies taken between July 1969 and February 2008 on celiac disease (Marsh stage 3: villous atro...

background: celiac disease (cd) has an autoimmune disease in response to ingestion of foods containing gluten sausing damage to the mucosal tissue of small intestine. the disease can severely affect quality of life. this study aims to assess the relationship between behavioral disorders and quality of life (qol) in patients with celiac disease. materials and methods: 87 celiac patients and 100 ...

  Background and Objective: Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder, characterized by inflammation, villous atrophy, and crypt hyperplasia of the small bowel mucosa. In this study we considered and compared sensitivity and specificity of serological tests in patients with celiac disease. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study we prospectively recruited children with suspected c...

The association of celiac disease and type I diabetes mellitus has been known for some time. This study was undertaken to investigate the prevalence of celiac disease (CD) in diabetic children and adolescents. Eighty-seven patients (44 females, 43 males) aged 2- 18 years, with type I diabetes participated in this study. A group of 87 healthy unrelated girls and boys matched for age and gend...

BACKGROUND Celiac disease is an immune-mediated small bowel disorder that develops in genetically susceptible individuals upon exposure to dietary gluten. Celiac disease could have extra-intestinal manifestations that affect women's reproductive health. The aim of this study was to investigate fertility and outcomes of pregnancy among women with celiac disease. METHODS In a retrospective coho...

BACKGROUND Environmental factors, including infectious agents, are speculated to play a role in the rising prevalence and the geographic distribution of celiac disease, an autoimmune disorder. In the USA and Sweden where the regional variation in the frequency of celiac disease has been studied, a similarity with the geographic distribution of Lyme disease, an emerging multisystemic infection c...

BACKGROUND Celiac disease is associated with an increased risk of malignant lymphomas. The risk of lymphoproliferative malignancies in patients with small intestinal inflammation without villous atrophy and in patients with latent celiac disease is unknown. METHODS We performed a cohort study using duodenal and jejunal biopsy data that were collected from all 28 Swedish pathology departments ...

BACKGROUND Knowledge regarding the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of children with celiac disease remains limited and inconclusive. We investigated the HRQoL of three groups of 12-year-olds with: i) undetected celiac disease ii) clinically diagnosed celiac disease, and iii) without celiac disease. METHODS A school-based cross-sectional multicenter screening study invited 18 325 childr...
