Abstract
Coeliac disease (CD) is an immune-mediated systemic disorder caused by ingestion of gluten found in wheat, rye and barley. It affects around 1% of children, but 90% of cases are considered to remain undiagnosed. CD classically presents with gastrointestinal manifestations including diarrhoea, bloating, weight loss and abdominal pain, but extra-intestinal features (including oral and dental manifestations) are increasingly being reported. Dental and oral manifestations such as dental enamel defects, delayed eruption of teeth, recurrent aphthous ulcers are well-recognised manifestations of CD. In patients with yet undiagnosed CD, these can sometimes be the only presenting features. Dentists have regular contact with well children, and therefore the visit to the dentist is an opportunity to suspect CD. When CD is suspected, Dental practitioners can liaise with the general medical practitioner to organise screening for coeliac disease. Positive serology will prompt onward referral to a paediatric gastroenterologist to confirm the diagnosis. The recent European Paediatric Gastroenterology Hepatology and Nutrition (ESPGHAN) guidelines revised in 2012 have streamlined the diagnostic pathway for faster diagnosis of CD. Management involves strict adherence to a gluten free diet, which should lead to resolution of symptoms, recovery of intestinal mucosa and prevention of long-term complications associated with it. This article aims to describe CD, inform of recent changes to the diagnostic pathway and highlight the dental manifestations of the condition to equip dental practitioners to aid early diagnosis and initiation of treatment for children with CD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sports-related knee injuries occur commonly in athletes. However, there is no published epidemiological study from India till date. OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to identify common injuries sustained by Indian athletes participating in different sports and to study various associated demographic features. A secondary objective was to investigate different factors, which may affect return to sport by the athlete. STUDY DESIGN Cross-sectional study (observational study). STUDY CENTRE Sports injury clinic, PGIMER, Chandigarh. METHODS Out of 465 athletes who presented to us with sports-related knee injuries over a 5-year period, 363 athletes (from 24 different sports) with complete records were identified. Data were analysed for demographic features, type of sport, mechanism of injury, injury scenario, athlete's level of play, injury duration at presentation, injury patterns and type of management. Telephonic interviews were conducted with each athlete to enquire about return to sport and time lost in sport due to the knee injury. Factors associated with return to sport were investigated using statistical tests of association. RESULTS Soccer was found to be the most common sport associated with knee injuries accounting for 30.6% of the injuries followed by kabaddi (20.9%). The most common mechanism was non-contact injury (64.4%). Competitive injuries were found to be significantly more than practice/training injuries (p < 0.0001). The most common injuries noted were ACL tears (n = 314) followed by meniscus injuries (n = 284) and the most common combination of injuries were an ACL tear with medial meniscus tear (n = 163). Only 39.8% of the athletes returned to sport. Mean duration of time lost in sport among those who returned to sport was 8.84 months. Return to sport was significantly associated with body mass index, level of competitiveness of the athlete and type of management (p = 0.017, 0.045 and <0.0001, respectively). CONCLUSION Knee injuries take a huge toll on an athlete's career as observed in this study. Prevention of knee injuries is of paramount importance and more focussed epidemiological studies are needed for formulating policies to prevent sports injuries in both professional and amateur athletes. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV.

Abstract
We conducted a nested case-control study from a cohort of adult kidney transplant recipients to assess the risk of transplant glomerulopathy (TG) as a function of donor and recipient HLA-DR and -DQ incompatibility at the eplet level. Cases (n = 52) were defined as patients diagnosed with transplant glomerulopathy based on biopsies showing glomerular basement membrane duplication without immune complex deposition. Controls (n = 104) with a similar follow-up from transplantation were randomly selected from the remaining cohort. HLAMatchmaker was used to ascertain the number of DRB1/3/4/5, DQA1 and DQB1 related eplet mismatches (eplet load). Multivariable conditional logistic regression models demonstrated an increase in the odds of TG (odds ratios [OR] of 2.84 [95% confidence interval (CI): 1.03, 7.84] and 4.62 [95% CI: 1.51, 14.14]) in the presence of 27-43 and >43 HLA-DR + DQ related eplet mismatches versus <27 eplet mismatches, respectively. When the eplet load was modeled as a continuous variable, the OR for TG was 1.25 (95% CI: 1.04, 1.50) for every 10 additional HLA-DR + DQ eplet mismatches. Our study suggests that minimization of HLA-DR + DQ eplet mismatches may decrease the incidence of transplant glomerulopathy diagnosed by indication biopsies. The role of eplet immunogenicity/antigenicity as determinants of allograft outcomes requires further study.
