Rewers, Daniel Agardh, William Hagopian, Edwin Liu, TEDDY Study Grp

Summary: The study examines regional differences in celiac disease (CD) development among children in Europe and the United States. The incidence of CD varied by region, with Swedish children having the highest incidence at 3%. In the United States, the incidence was highest in Colorado at 2.4%.

Gluten-free diet adherence in children with screening-detected celiac disease using a prospective birth cohort study

Pooja Mehta, Qian Li, Marisa Stahl, Ulla Uusitalo, Katri Lindfors, Martha D. Butterworth, Kalle Kurppa, Suvi Virtanen, Sibylle Koletzko, Carin Aronsson, William J. Hagopian, Marian Rewers, Jorma Toppari, Anette-G. Ziegler, Beena Akolkar, Jeffrey Krischer, Daniel Agardh, Edwin Liu

Summary: This study aimed to describe the adherence rates to a gluten-free diet in children with screening-identified celiac disease and determine the factors associated with adherence. The results showed that approximately two-thirds of the children remained strictly adherent to a gluten-free diet at 2 and 5 years after diagnosis. Parent-reported adherence did not correlate with actual gluten intake based on food records. Having a first-degree relative with celiac disease was associated with higher adherence.

Summary: This study evaluated the completeness, accuracy, timeliness, and case coverage of the Tampere Wound Registry (TWR). The results showed that the TWR is a reliable tool for health care documentation and a more reliable data source than patient medical records.

The role of gluten challenge in the diagnosis of celiac disease: a review

Alina Popp, Pilvi Laurikka, Diana Czika, Kalle Kurppa

Summary: Duodenal biopsy is the best method for diagnosing celiac disease, but there is increasing use of serology. Gluten challenge may be necessary if a person has reduced gluten intake before diagnosis. The optimal protocol for the challenge is still unclear.

Summary: This study investigated the prevalence, risk factors, and metabolic co-morbidities of metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) in overweight children. The prevalence of MAFLD was 15%, with higher rates in boys than girls, and was associated with gender, puberty stage, disturbances in glucose and lipid metabolism, age, and BMI.

Risk of vascular diseases in patients with dermatitis herpetiformis and coeliac disease: a long-term cohort study

Noora Nilsson, Joonas Leivo, Pekka Collin, Inka Koskinen, Katri Kaukinen, Heini Huhtala, Johanna Palmio, Timo Reunala, Kaisa Hervonen, Teea Salmi, Camilla Pasternack

Summary: This cohort study investigated the risk for vascular diseases in dermatitis herpetiformis (DH) and coeliac disease patients. The results showed that compared to coeliac disease patients, DH patients had a decreased risk for cerebrovascular diseases, while coeliac disease patients had an increased risk for cerebrovascular and cardiovascular diseases. Coeliac disease, but not DH, was associated with an increased risk for venous thrombosis.

Prevalence of vomiting and nausea and associated factors after chronic and acute gluten exposure in celiac disease

Summary: Vomiting and nausea appear to be specific symptoms associated with gluten ingestion in treated celiac disease. However, the overall prevalence and factors related to these symptoms during chronic gluten exposure and acute re-exposure remain unclear.

Patient-reported burden of skin disorders in coeliac disease

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the frequency, severity, and quality of life effects of skin disorders in coeliac disease patients compared to controls, as well as the impacts of a gluten-free diet on these skin diseases. The results showed that coeliac disease patients were not at an increased risk for certain skin diseases, but they still experienced a burden on their quality of life due to skin symptoms.

Separate Gut Plasma Cell Populations Produce Auto-Antibodies against Transglutaminase 2 and Transglutaminase 3 in Dermatitis Herpetiformis

Summary: Dermatitis herpetiformis (DH) is an inflammatory skin disorder often considered as an extra intestinal manifestation of celiac disease (CeD). Hallmarks of CeD and DH are auto-antibodies to transglutaminase 2 (TG2) and transglutaminase 3 (TG3), respectively. DH patients have auto-antibodies reactive with both transglutaminase enzymes.

Summary: The prevalence of coeliac disease in Finland has been increasing over the years, with positive TGA without EmA, TGA values in the upper normal range, and pre-existing autoimmune diseases as predictors of developing the disease.
