Abstract
Celiac disease, characterized as an autoimmune disorder, possesses the capacity to affect multiple organs and systems. Earlier research has indicated an increased risk of kidney diseases associated with celiac disease. However, the potential causal relationship between genetic susceptibility to celiac disease and the risk of kidney diseases remains uncertain. We conducted Mendelian randomization analysis using nonoverlapping European population data, examining the link between celiac disease and 10 kidney traits in whole-genome association studies. We employed the inverse variance-weighted method to enhance statistical robustness, and results' reliability was reinforced through rigorous sensitivity analysis. Mendelian randomization analysis revealed a genetic susceptibility of celiac disease to an increased risk of immunoglobulin A nephropathy (OR = 1.44; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.17-1.78; P = 5.7 × 10-4), chronic glomerulonephritis (OR = 1.15; 95% CI = 1.08-1.22; P = 2.58 × 10-5), and a decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate (beta = -0.001; P = 2.99 × 10-4). Additionally, a potential positive trend in the causal relationship between celiac disease and membranous nephropathy (OR = 1.37; 95% CI = 1.08-1.74; P = 0.01) was observed. Sensitivity analysis indicated the absence of pleiotropy. This study contributes novel evidence establishing a causal link between celiac disease and kidney traits, indicating a potential association between celiac disease and an elevated risk of kidney diseases. The findings provide fresh perspectives for advancing mechanistic and clinical research into kidney diseases associated with celiac disease.

Abstract
Celiac disease (CeD) is a chronic immune-mediated condition triggered by gluten consumption in genetically predisposed individuals. Approximately 1% of the general population is affected by the disorder. Disease presentation is heterogeneous and, despite growing awareness among physicians and the public, it continues to be underestimated. The most effective strategy for identifying undiagnosed CeD is proactive case finding through serologic testing in high-risk groups. We reviewed the most recent evidence on the association between CeD and more than 20 conditions. In light of this review, CeD screening is recommended in individuals with (1) autoimmune disease and accompanying symptoms suggestive of CeD; (2) diseases that may mimic CeD (eg, irritable bowel syndrome [IBS], inflammatory bowel disease [IBD], and microscopic colitis); and (3) among patients with conditions with a high CeD prevalence: first-degree relatives, idiopathic pancreatitis, unexplained liver enzyme abnormalities, autoimmune hepatitis, primary biliary cholangitis, hyposplenism or functional asplenia with severe bacterial infection, type 1 diabetes mellitus, Hashimoto's thyroiditis and Graves' disease, Sjögren's syndrome, dermatitis herpetiformis, recurrent aphthous syndrome and enamel defects, unexplained ataxia, peripheral neuropathy, delayed menarche or premature menopause, Down syndrome, Turner syndrome, Williams syndrome, chronic fatigue syndrome, IgA nephropathy, and IgA deficiency. CeD serology should be the initial step in the screening process. However, for patients with any of the aforementioned disorders who are undergoing upper endoscopy, biopsies should be performed to rule out CeD.

Abstract
Celiac disease, firstly described in children, is a type of T-cell enteropathy that occurs in individuals genetically predisposed to gluten exposure. The estimated global prevalence of celiac disease is continuously increasing. Although, traditionally, celiac disease was diagnosed in children with failure to thrive and digestive issues, it is now recognized that may present with a wide range of symptoms beyond gastrointestinal ones. Celiac disease continues to pose significant challenges due to the continuous advancement of knowledge in understanding its pathophysiology, diagnosing the condition, managing its effects, and exploring potential therapeutic approaches. The prevalence of celiac disease is increased among individuals with chronic kidney disease, also. The most frequent associations are with diabetic nephropathy, IgA nephropathy and urolithiasis. A gut-kidney axis has been recognized to play a significant role in chronic kidney diseases. This literature review aims to review the chronic renal pathology associated with celiac disease, with emphasis on childhood.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Coeliac disease (CeD) has been associated with a broad range of diseases in observational data; however, whether these associations are causal remains undetermined. We conducted a phenome-wide Mendelian randomization analysis (MR-PheWAS) to investigate the comorbidities of CeD. METHODS Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with CeD at the genome-wide significance threshold and without linkage disequilibrium (R2 <0.001) were selected from a genome-wide association study including 12,041 CeD cases as the instrumental variables. We first constructed a polygenic risk score for CeD and estimated its associations with 1060 unique clinical outcomes in the UK Biobank study (N = 385,917). We then used two-sample MR analysis to replicate the identified associations using data from the FinnGen study (N = 377,277). We performed a secondary analysis using a genetic instrument without extended MHC gene SNPs. FINDINGS Genetic liability to CeD was associated with 68 clinical outcomes in the UK Biobank, and 38 of the associations were replicated in the FinnGen study. Genetic liability to CeD was associated with a higher risk of several autoimmune diseases (type 1 diabetes and its complications, Graves' disease, Sjögren syndrome, chronic hepatitis, systemic and cutaneous lupus erythematosus, and sarcoidosis), non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and osteoporosis and a lower risk of prostate diseases. The associations for type 1 diabetes and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma attenuated when excluding SNPs in the MHC region, indicating shared genetic aetiology. INTERPRETATION This study uncovers multiple clinical outcomes associated with genetic liability to CeD, which suggests the necessity of comorbidity monitoring among this population. FUNDING This project was funded by Karolinska Institutet and the Swedish Research Council.

Acta Diabetol 2023; 60:1471-1477. [PMID: 37338603 PMCID: PMC10520068 DOI: 10.1007/s00592-023-02113-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2023] [Accepted: 05/02/2023] [Indexed: 06/21/2023]
Abstract
AIM To compare HbA1c and clinical outcomes in adolescents and young adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D), with or without celiac disease (CD). METHODS Longitudinal data were extracted from ADDN, a prospective clinical diabetes registry. Inclusion criteria were T1D (with or without CD), ≥ 1 HbA1c measurement, age 16-25 years and diabetes duration ≥ 1 year at last measurement. Multivariable Generalised Estimated Equation models were used for longitudinal analysis of variables associated with HbA1c. RESULTS Across all measurements, those with coexisting T1D and CD had lower HbA1c when compared to those with T1D alone (8.5 ± 1.5% (69.4 ± 16.8 mmol/mol) vs. 8.7 ± 1.8% (71.4 ± 19.8 mmol/mol); p < 0.001); lower HbA1c was associated with shorter diabetes duration (B = - 0.06; 95% CI - 0.07 to - 0.05; p < 0.001), male sex (B = - 0.24; - 0.36 to - 0.11; p < 0.001), insulin pump therapy use (B = - 0.46; - 0.58 to - 0.34; p < 0.001), coexistence of T1D and CD (B = - 0.28; - 0.48 to - 0.07; p = 0.01), blood pressure (B = - 0.16; - 0.23 to - 0.09; p < 0.001) and body mass index (B = -- 0.03; - 0.02 to - 0.04; p = 0.01) in the normal range. At last measurement, 11.7% of the total population had a HbA1c < 7.0% (53.0 mmol/mol). CONCLUSIONS Across all measurements, coexisting T1D and CD is associated with lower HbA1c when compared to T1D alone. However, HbA1c is above target in both groups.

Abstract
BACKGROUND An increased risk of kidney disease in patients with celiac disease has been reported, but the association has remained obscure. Only few studies have investigated the association between renal comorbidities and dermatitis herpetiformis, a cutaneous manifestation of celiac disease. OBJECTIVES We investigated whether patients with different phenotypes of celiac disease are at higher risk of kidney diseases than age- and sex-matched references. METHODS The diagnoses of glomerulonephritis, diabetic nephropathy, interstitial nephritis, and end-stage renal disease obtained from the National Hospital Discharge Register between 1970 and 2015 were identified in celiac disease (Marsh III, n = 1072) and dermatitis herpetiformis (n = 368) patients diagnosed at Tampere University Hospital catchment region and in 4296 reference subjects. Using the Cox proportional hazards model, we compared the risk of kidney diseases between patients and references. The study protocol was approved by the Regional Ethics Committee of Tampere University Hospital (R16090). As the study was register based, no consent from patients was required. RESULTS Even after adjusting for type 1 diabetes, celiac disease was associated with an elevated risk of kidney disease (hazard ratio [HR] 1.85, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.12-3.03), glomerulonephritis (HR 3.37, 95% CI 1.64-6.95), and IgA nephropathy (IgAN) (HR 18.98, 95% CI 2.29-157.63). No similarly elevated risk was found among dermatitis herpetiformis patients (HR 1.50, 95% CI 0.63-3.55; HR 2.21, 95% CI 0.77-6.38; and HR 5.87, 95% CI 0.53-64.79, respectively). CONCLUSION Celiac disease patients were at increased risk of kidney diseases, notably IgAN. The risk was dependent on the celiac disease phenotype and was not seen in patients with dermatitis herpetiformis. Awareness of possible renal manifestations is recommended when treating celiac disease patients.

The Association between Treatment Modality, Lipid Profile, Metabolic Control in Children with Type 1 Diabetes and Celiac Disease-Data from the International Sweet Registry. Nutrients 2021; 13:nu13124473. [PMID: 34960025 PMCID: PMC8707296 DOI: 10.3390/nu13124473] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2021] [Revised: 12/01/2021] [Accepted: 12/09/2021] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Background and Aims: A higher frequency of dyslipidemia is reported in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and celiac disease (CD). Recently, continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) has been associated with better lipid profiles in patients with T1D. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between treatment modality and lipid profile, metabolic control, and body mass index (BMI)-SDS in children with both T1D and CD. Methods: Cross-sectional study in children registered in the international SWEET database in November 2020. Inclusion criteria were children (2–18 years) with T1D and CD with available data on treatment modality (CSII and injections therapy, IT), triglyceride, total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, dyslipidemia, HbA1c, and BMI-SDS. Overweight/obesity was defined as > +1 BMI-SDS for age. Data were analyzed by linear and logistical regression models with adjustment for age, gender, and diabetes duration. Results: In total 1009 children with T1D and CD (female 54%, CSII 54%, age 13.9 years ±3.6, diabetes duration 7.2 years ±4.1, HbA1c 7.9% ±1.4) were included. Significant differences between children treated with CSII vs. IT were respectively found; HDL 60.0 mg/dL vs. 57.8 mg/dL, LDL 89.4 mg/dL vs. 94.2 mg/dL, HbA1c 7.7 vs. 8.1%, BMI-SDS 0.4 vs. 0.6, overweight and obesity 17% vs. 26% (all p < 0.05). Conclusions: CSII is associated with higher HDL and lower LDL, HbA1c, BMI-SDS, and percentage of overweight and obesity compared with IT in this study. Further prospective studies are required to determine whether CSII improves lipid profile, metabolic control and normalize body weight in children with both T1D and CD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We aimed to determine the prevalence of specific auto-antibodies to celiac disease (CD) in Moroccan type 1 diabetic (T1D) patients and compare the clinical and biological characteristics of seropositive and seronegative cases. PATIENTS AND METHODS A cross-sectional study was carried out on 276 T1D patients including 109 adults and 167 pediatric cases. The screening for CD was performed by an Elisa IgA anti-tissue transglutaminase antibody (tTGA) testing, combined with IgA quantification by nephelometry. Positive-IgA-tTGA cases were secondly tested for anti-endomysial antibodies (EMA) using an immunofluorescence technique, and the IgA deficiency cases were screened for IgG-tTGA. Patients with low positive tTGA titers underwent HLA-DQ2/DQ8 typing. Sociodemographic and clinical data of the patients were collected using a hetero-administered questionnaire. The comparison of clinical and biological data between seropositive and seronegative diabetics was done using independent T, Mann-Whitney U, chi-squared, and Fisher tests, which were considered significant if p value <0.05. RESULTS The prevalence of CD-specific auto-antibodies was estimated to be 9.1% (IC = 95%), with 25 positive cases in tTGA and EMA testing. Eight cases displayed low titers of IgA-tTGA, among which 4 were positive for HLA-DQ2, 1 for HLA-DQ8, and 1 for both DQ2 and DQ8. The other 2 cases had a biopsy-proven CD. Compared to seronegative patients, seropositive cases had a higher percentage of associated autoimmune disorders (16% vs. 2.4%, p=0.008), with a significant lower height Z-scores (median: -0.90 (-3.93 to 0.95) vs. -0.51 (-4.54 to 2.18), p=0.029) and a higher HbA1c level (median: 11.30% (7.31 to 16.00) vs. 9.30% (4.40 to17.31), p=0.022). CONCLUSION The current study gave evidence of a high prevalence of CD specific auto-antibodies in T1D population. The co-existence of these two conditions was associated with a poor glycemic control, a lower height, and other autoimmune diseases. These findings may suggest the necessity of a systematic screening of CD in T1D patients.

Abstract
CONTEXT Though the long-term consequences of celiac disease (CD) in type 1 diabetes are unclear, CD has been associated with increased prevalence of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) independent of type 1 diabetes. OBJECTIVE We evaluated whether celiac autoimmunity is related to the cumulative incidence of microalbuminuria [albumin excretion rate (AER) 20 to 200 µg/min], macroalbuminuria (AER >200 µg/min), and ESRD. DESIGN, PATIENTS, AND METHODS In the prospective follow-up of the Pittsburgh Epidemiology of Diabetes Complications study of childhood-onset type 1 diabetes, 618 participants were screened for tissue transglutaminase (tTG) antibodies with a clinical assay. Nephropathy outcomes were determined at 25 years of diabetes duration. RESULTS Overall, the 33 subjects (5.3%) with strongly positive tTG levels (≥3 times the upper limit of normal) or a reported clinical history of CD had lower baseline blood pressure and lipid values. At 25 years of diabetes duration, a lower cumulative incidence of macroalbuminuria in strongly positive subjects compared with those with negative serology (3.6% vs 30.0%; P = 0.003) remained significant after adjustment for age, HbA1c, lipid measures, and blood pressure (adjusted P = 0.004). No considerable differences between these subjects and tTG-negative groups were found for microalbuminuria (40.0% vs 57.1%) or ESRD (0 vs 4.1%). CONCLUSIONS These findings show that strongly positive celiac autoimmunity status in individuals with childhood-onset type 1 diabetes is associated with lower baseline blood pressure and cholesterol measurements as well as lower macroalbuminuria risk after 25 years of type 1 diabetes duration with no increase in the risk of microalbuminuria or ESRD.

Glycemic control and microvascular complications in adults with type 1 diabetes and long-lasting treated celiac disease: A case-control study. Diabetes Res Clin Pract 2018; 143:282-287. [PMID: 30075178 DOI: 10.1016/j.diabres.2018.07.031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2018] [Revised: 07/09/2018] [Accepted: 07/30/2018] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
AIMS To investigate whether in type 1 diabetes (T1DM) patients the concomitance of long-lasting celiac disease (CD) treated with a gluten free diet (GFD) impacts glycaemic control and the prevalence/severity of microvascular complications. METHODS A case-control, observational study was performed in 34 patients with T1DM and GFD-treated CD and 66 patients with T1DM alone matched for age, gender, and T1DM duration. Anthropometric parameters, glucose control (HbA1c), status of chronic complications and concomitant autoimmune diseases were evaluated. RESULTS HbA1c level was similar in T1DM + CD and T1DM alone (7.8 ± 1.0 vs 7.7 ± 1.1%, P = 0.57); insulin requirement was significantly higher in T1DM + CD compared with T1DM (P = 0.04). There were no differences in systolic blood pressure while diastolic blood pressure was significantly lower in T1DM + CD (P = 0.003). The prevalence/severity of microvascular complications was similar between the two groups. Glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was significantly lower in T1DM + CD (100 ± 20 vs 110 ± 16 ml/min/1.73 m2, P = 0.007). CONCLUSIONS In patients with T1DM, the co-occurrence of long-term GFD-treated CD neither worsens glycemic control nor negatively impacts chronic microvascular complications. However, patients with T1DM + CD have lower eGFR values than those with T1DM alone.

Abstract
CONTEXT Celiac disease (CD) is a common phenomenon in children with Type 1 diabetes (T1D). In the present review, we have discussed the pathogenesis, diagnostic biomarkers, risk factors, and prognosis of CD in the context of pediatric T1D. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION Literature published in Web of Science, PubMed, Scopus, Google Scholar, and Cochrane Library were scrutinized up to the end of 2017. The keywords of celiac disease, Type 1 diabetes, children, and pediatric were used in different combinations. RESULTS Immune cytotoxic reactions along with dampen immune regulatory functions contribute to CD in the context of pediatric T1D. Many children with simultaneous CD and T1D do not represent with the clinical signs of the enteropathy rendering a diagnostic challenge. The most common screening tests in these children are routine serological tests of CD, anti - endomysial, anti - transglutaminase, and anti - deamidated gliadin peptide antibodies. Typing for human leukocyte antigens of DQ - 2 and DQ - 8 may assist in the diagnosis of silent CD in children with T1D. The most significant shared non - HLA genetic loci of CD and T1D comprise CTLA - 4, TAGAP, IL - 18RAP, PTPN2, RGS1, SH2B3, CCR5. Interactions between these loci can be important in susceptibility to CD in T1D. Some new biomarkers have been suggested for diagnosis of CD including ischemia-modified albumin (IMA), soluble syndecan-1 (SSDC-1), regenerating gene Iα (REG-Iα), Neurotensin, and Zonulin, which can be useful for diagnosis and screening of CD in childhood T1D. CONCLUSIONS Overall, active seropositive CD seems to be of clinical importance in T1D with significant impacts on the quality of life and predisposition to diabetes associated complications. It is important to detect CD in the context of T1D to prevent potential risks contributing to morbidities and mortalities associated with either CD or T1D.

Ir J Med Sci 2018; 188:135-139. [PMID: 29855860 DOI: 10.1007/s11845-018-1831-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2017] [Accepted: 05/02/2018] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Coeliac disease (CD) is more common in those with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and may be asymptomatic despite the presence of intestinal histological changes. Optimal screening practice guidelines differ internationally. We undertook a retrospective audit to determine the efficacy of current screening practice for CD in T1DM in our centre. METHODS All children and adolescents < 16 years, diagnosed with T1DM in our service and continuing to attend the service in January 2017 were included. Data on CD screening was collected and compared to current NICE, NASPGHAN and ESPGHAN guidelines. RESULTS Of the 355 patients attending our service, 253 attended from T1DM diagnosis and all had CD screening performed in our centre. In 37 of 253 patients, IgA-TTG was positive, providing a cumulative prevalence of 14.6%. Of these, 31(83.78%) with an elevated TTG on screening had no recorded gastrointestinal symptoms or CD-related clinical signs. Of the 35 TTG plus EMA-positive patients, 22/35 (59.46%) had diagnostic endoscopic biopsy. Nineteen (83.4%) had CD confirmed, 1 (4.54%) had negative biopsy and 2 (9%) had equivocal, non-diagnostic changes. CONCLUSIONS Timely diagnosis of CD can prevent chronic ill health in affected individuals, and in patients with T1DM, CD is an independent risk factor for increased morbidity and mortality. Given the high prevalence of atypical symptoms and silent CD in those with T1DM, in this and other studies, and the benefits of detection and treatment of CD, screening is essential. Large-scale data collection allowing for the development of evidence-based guidelines is required.

Celiac disease and the risk of kidney diseases: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Dig Liver Dis 2016; 48:1418-1424. [PMID: 27633269 DOI: 10.1016/j.dld.2016.08.115] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2016] [Revised: 08/06/2016] [Accepted: 08/12/2016] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Previous epidemiologic studies attempting to demonstrate the risk of kidney diseases among patients with celiac disease (CD) have yielded inconsistent results. This meta-analysis was conducted with the aims to summarize all available evidence. METHODS A literature search was performed using MEDLINE and EMBASE from inception to May 2016. Studies that provided relative risks, odd ratios, or hazard ratios examining the risk of kidney diseases among patients with CD versus individuals without CD were included. Pooled risk ratios (RR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated using a random-effect, generic inverse variance method. RESULTS Eight studies met our eligibility criteria and were included in our analysis. A pooled RR of overall kidney diseases in patients with CD was 2.01 (95% CI, 1.44-2.81, I2=76%). The pooled RR of end-stage renal disease in patients with CD was 2.57 (95% CI, 2.03-3.24). Subgroup analyses showed that significant risks were increased for diabetic nephropathy (pooled RR of 1.49, 95% CI, 1.09-2.02) and IgA nephropathy (pooled RR of 2.62, 95% CI, 1.27-5.42) in patients with CD. CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrates a significantly increased risk of kidney diseases among patients with CD. These findings may influence clinical management and primary prevention of kidney diseases in patients with CD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Celiac disease (CD) is a common comorbidity of type 1 diabetes (T1D). Long-term consequences of CD are not completely understood, and adhering to a gluten-free diet is a burden for many patients. We investigated the effect of CD on vascular risk factors in a large cohort of T1D patients aged <20 yr. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Within the longitudinal Diabetes Patienten Verlaufsdokumentation (DPV)-diabetes registry, data were analyzed from 59,909 < 20-yr-old T1D patients treated at 392 centers in Germany and Austria. A total of 974 patients with biopsy-proven celiac disease (BPCD) were compared with 28,398 patients without CD with respect to blood pressure (BP), lipids, glycohemoglobin (HbA1c ), body mass index (BMI), and reported smoking behavior. RESULTS Patients with T1D and BPCD showed significantly lower high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels [median (interquartile range): 53.0 (43.0-62.6) mg/dL] than patients without CD [55.0 (45.0-66.0) mg/dL; p < 0.01; p < 0.001 after adjustment for confounding variables]. Systolic BP was lower in patients with CD [105.5 (100.0-112.5) mmHg] than in patients without CD [110.0 (102.0-117.0) mmHg; p < 0.0001; p < 0.001 after adjustment]. There were no significant differences regarding smoking behavior, BMI, or HbA1c . In a subgroup of 335 patients with BPCD, HDL cholesterol was measured 1 yr after diagnosis of CD:HDL increased by 8% (p < 0.01). CONCLUSION Young people with T1D and CD have lower HDL cholesterol values than patients without CD. As low HDL cholesterol is associated with vascular risk, our findings support screening for CD and monitoring of HDL cholesterol in young people with T1D.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Both type 1 diabetes (T1D) and celiac disease (CD) have been linked to autoimmune thyroid disease (ATD). We examined if individuals with both T1D and CD were at a higher risk of ATD than those with only T1D. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS This study was a nationwide population-based cohort study. We defined T1D as having an inpatient or a hospital-based outpatient diagnosis of T1D at age ≤30 years in the Swedish National Patient Register between 1964 and 2009. Data on CD were obtained through small intestinal biopsy reports showing villous atrophy (Marsh histopathology grade III) between 1969 and 2008 at any of the 28 pathology departments in Sweden. ATD included hyperthyreosis and hypothyreosis, defined according to the Swedish National Patient Register. We identified 947 individuals with T1D and biopsy-verified CD. These were matched to 4,584 control subjects with T1D but no CD diagnosis. Cox regression then estimated the risk of ATD. RESULTS Among T1D, CD was a risk factor for later ATD. During follow-up, 90 T1D+CD patients developed ATD (expected n = 54). Adjusting for sex, age, and calendar period, this corresponded to a hazard ratio (HR) of 1.67 (95% CI 1.32-2.11; P < 0.001). This excess risk was highest in those who had CD for 10 years or more (HR 2.22 [95% CI 1.49-3.23]). Risk increases were seen in both males and females. CD was a risk factor for both hypothyreosis (HR 1.66 [95% CI 1.30-2.12]) and hyperthyreosis (HR 1.72 [95% CI 0.95-3.11]). CONCLUSIONS Among patients with T1D, CD is a risk factor for the later development of ATD.

Abstract
AIMS Our objective was to characterize urinary cytokine/chemokine excretion in adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and celiac disease (CD) adhering to gluten free diet (GFD) compared to matched T1D patients and healthy control (HC) group from an existing cohort. METHODS Eighteen T1D+CD+GFD patients aged 10-16years were identified and matched 2:1 for age, sex, diabetes duration and glycated hemoglobin to 36 T1D subjects and 36 HC. T1D+CD+GFD patients were adherent with a GFD. Urine and serum levels of cytokines/chemokines as well as baseline clinical and laboratory variables were assessed. RESULTS T1D+CD+GFD patients exhibited lower levels of urinary IL-1B, IL-4, IL-5 (p<0.05) and IFN-γ, IL-8 and G-CSF levels (p<0.07) compared with T1D patients. Urinary biomarker levels between T1D+CD+GFD and HC were mostly similar. In contrast, urinary FGF-2, Flt-3, IL-1B, IL-1RA, IL-4, IL-5, IL-9, IL-10, IL-12p40, IL-15, MIP-1β, and TNF-β (p<0.05) were higher in T1D patients compared to HC. Similar levels of inflammatory markers were seen in the serum for all 3 groups. CONCLUSIONS T1D+CD+GFD patients demonstrated decreased urinary inflammatory cytokine/chemokines compared to T1D and some similar to HC, which is suggestive of a potential modulatory role of treated CD on urinary markers.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To examine the risk of any fractures in patients with both type 1 diabetes (T1D) and celiac disease (CD) vs patients with T1D only. STUDY DESIGN We performed a population-based cohort study. We defined T1D as individuals aged ≤30 years who had a diagnosis of diabetes recorded in the Swedish National Patient Register between 1964 and 2009. Individuals with CD were identified through biopsy report data between 1969 and 2008 from any of Sweden's 28 pathology departments. Some 958 individuals had both T1D and CD and were matched for sex, age, and calendar period with 4598 reference individuals with T1D only. We then used a stratified Cox regression analysis, where CD was modeled as a time-dependent covariate, to estimate the risk of any fractures and osteoporotic fractures (hip, distal forearm, thoracic and lumbar spine, and proximal humerus) in patients with both T1D and CD compared with that in patients with T1D only. RESULTS During follow-up, 12 patients with T1D and CD had a fracture (1 osteoporotic fracture). CD did not influence the risk of any fracture (adjusted hazard ratio = 0.77; 95% CI = 0.42-1.41) or osteoporotic fractures (adjusted hazard ratio = 0.46; 95% CI = 0.06-3.51) in patients with T1D. Stratification for time since CD diagnosis did not affect risk estimates. CONCLUSION Having a diagnosis of CD does not seem to influence fracture risk in young patients with T1D. Follow-up in this study was, however, too short to ascertain osteoporotic fractures which traditionally occur in old age.

Abstract
This review aims at summarizing the present knowledge on the clinical consequences of concomitant coeliac disease (CD) in adult patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). The cause of the increased prevalence of CD in T1DM patients is a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Current screening guidelines for CD in adult T1DM patients are not uniform. Based on the current evidence of effects of CD on bone mineral density, diabetic complications, quality of life, morbidity and mortality in patients with T1DM, we advise periodic screening for CD in adult T1DM patients to prevent delay in CD diagnosis and subsequent CD and/or T1DM related complications.

Abstract
AIMS Celiac disease (CD) may influence metabolic control in type 1 diabetes (T1D). This work examines whether CD in T1D influences hospital admissions due to coma, ketoacidosis and hypoglycemia. METHODS In population-based cohort study, individuals with CD were identified using biopsy data (1969-2008) from Sweden's 28 pathology departments. T1D was defined as a recorded diagnosis of T1D at age ≤30 years in the Swedish National Patient Register between 1964 and 2009. In total, 906 individuals had both T1D and CD and were matched for sex, age and calendar period with 4303 reference individuals. Through stratified Cox regression analysis, we modeled CD as a time-dependent covariate and estimated the risk of future coma, ketoacidosis and hypoglycemia, defined by relevant international classification of disease codes among T1D patients with and without CD. RESULTS During follow-up, patients with both T1D and CD had 49 hospital admissions with diabetic coma, 91 episodes of ketoacidosis and 25 hypoglycemic events. Among patients with T1D, CD did not influence the risk of coma (adjusted HR 0.97; 95 % CI 0.72-1.32), ketoacidosis (adjusted HR 1.08; 95 % CI 0.86-1.34), or hypoglycemia (adjusted HR 1.34; 95 % CI 0.87-2.05). The absolute risk of coma was 621/100,000 person-years in T1D and CD (637 in controls). Corresponding figures for ketoacidosis were 1175/100,000 person-years in T1D and CD (1092 in controls) and for hypoglycemia 316/100,000 person-years (236 in controls). HRs for metabolic emergencies in T1D were similar in the first 5 years after T1D diagnosis as thereafter. CONCLUSIONS Having a diagnosis of CD is unlikely to influence the risk of coma, ketoacidosis and hypoglycemia in T1D patients.

Abstract
Coeliac disease is a treatable, gluten-induced disease that often occurs concurrently with other autoimmune diseases. In genetic studies since 2007, a partial genetic overlap between these diseases has been revealed and further insights into the pathophysiology of coeliac disease and autoimmunity have been gained. However, genetic screening is not sensitive and specific enough to accurately predict disease development. The current method to diagnose individuals with coeliac disease is serological testing for the presence of autoantibodies whilst the patient is on a regular, gluten-containing diet, followed by gastroduodenoscopy with duodenal biopsy. Serological test results can also predict the probability of coeliac disease development, even if asymptomatic. In patients with autoimmune diseases known to occur alongside coeliac disease (particularly type 1 diabetes mellitus or thyroid disorders), disease screening-and subsequent treatment if coeliac disease is detected-could have beneficial effects on progression or potential complications of both diseases, owing to the effectiveness of gluten-free dietary interventions in coeliac disease. However, whether diagnosis of coeliac disease and subsequent dietary treatment can prevent autoimmune diseases is debated. In this Review, the genetic and immunological features of coeliac disease, overlap with other autoimmune diseases and implications for current screening strategies will be discussed.

Abstract
The association between celiac disease (CD), an autoimmune condition involving intestinal inflammation related to gluten ingestion, and type 1 diabetes has long been recognized. CD prevalence rates 4 to 6 times greater in adults with type 1 diabetes than in the general population. Much of the existing literature focuses on important implications related to the impact of a gluten-free diet on short-term outcomes in metabolic control and quality of life. Canadian Diabetes Association guidelines recommend targeted CD screening in patients with type 1 diabetes who have classic symptoms, such as abdominal pain, bloating, diarrhea, unexplained weight loss or labile metabolic control; however, a significant proportion (40% to 60%) of patients may have mild or absent symptoms. Recent evidence suggests that adult patients with both conditions are at higher risk for diabetes microvascular comorbidities, increased mortality and impaired bone health if the CD is untreated. The purpose of this review is to describe the association between CD and type 1 diabetes and to summarize recent literature that evaluates risks in patients with both conditions.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Coeliac disease (CD) is an autoimmune condition characterised by gluten-induced intestinal inflammation, and observed at a 5-10 fold greater prevalence in type 1 diabetes. While universal screening for CD in patients with diabetes is frequently advocated, objective data is limited as to benefits on diabetes control, bone health or quality of life related to the adoption of a gluten-free diet (GFD) in the large proportion of patients with diabetes with asymptomatic CD. The Celiac Disease and Diabetes-Dietary Intervention and Evaluation Trial (CD-DIET) study is a multicenter, randomised controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a GFD in patients with type 1 diabetes with asymptomatic CD. METHODS AND ANALYSIS Children and adults (8-45 years) with type 1 diabetes will be screened for asymptomatic CD. Eligible patients with biopsy-proven CD will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to treatment with a GFD for 1 year, or continue with a gluten-containing diet. The primary outcome will evaluate the impact of the GFD on change in glycated haemoglobin. Secondary outcomes will evaluate changes in bone mineral density, blood glucose variability and health-related quality of life between GFD-treated and the regular diet group over a 1-year period. The study was initiated in 2012 and has subsequently expanded to multiple paediatric and adult centres in Ontario, Canada. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The findings from this study will provide high-quality evidence as to the impact of GFD treatment on glycaemic control and complications in asymptomatic children and adults with CD and type 1 diabetes. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT01566110.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Celiac disease (CD) occurs in approximately 1% of the Western population. It is a lifelong disorder that is associated with impaired quality of life (QOL) and an excessive risk of comorbidity and death. OBJECTIVES To review the literature on screening for CD in relation to the current World Health Organization (WHO) criteria for mass screening. METHODS We performed a PubMed search to identify indexed papers on CD screening with a publication date from 1900 until 1 June 2014. When we deemed an abstract relevant, we read the corresponding paper in detail. RESULTS CD fulfills several WHO criteria for mass screening (high prevalence, available treatment and difficult clinical detection), but it has not yet been established that treatment of asymptomatic CD may reduce the excessive risk of severe complications, leading to higher QOL nor that it is cost-effective. CONCLUSIONS Current evidence is not sufficient to support mass screening for CD, but active case-finding may be appropriate, as we recognize that most patients with CD will still be missed by this strategy. Although proof of benefit is still lacking, screening for CD may be appropriate in high-risk groups.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Celiac disease (CD) is a lifelong disorder. Patients are at increased risk of complications and comorbidity. OBJECTIVES We conducted a review of the literature on patient support and information in CD and aim to issue recommendations about patient information with regards to CD. METHODS DATA SOURCE We searched PubMed for English-language articles published between 1900 and June 2014, containing terms related to costs, economics of CD, or education and CD. STUDY SELECTION Papers deemed relevant by any of the participating authors were included in the study. DATA SYNTHESIS No quantitative synthesis of data was performed. Instead we formulated a consensus view of the information that should be offered to all patients with CD. RESULTS There are few randomized clinical trials examining the effect of patient support in CD. Patients and their families receive information from many sources. It is important that health care personnel guide the patient through the plethora of facts and comments on the Internet. An understanding of CD is likely to improve dietary adherence. Patients should be educated about current knowledge about risk factors for CD, as well as the increased risk of complications. Patients should also be advised to avoid other health hazards, such as smoking. Many patients are eager to learn about future non-dietary treatments of CD. This review also comments on novel therapies but it is important to stress that no such treatment is available at present. CONCLUSION Based on mostly observational data, we suggest that patient support and information should be an integral part of the management of CD, and is likely to affect the outcome of CD.
