Abstract
BACKGROUND Celiac disease (CD) is an autoimmune disorder triggered by gluten ingestion. Herein, we assessed clinical, serological and histopathological findings of a single-center, large cohort of CD patients diagnosed and followed-up over forty years. METHODS From January 1980 to December 2020, 1547 CD patients (1170 females; age range: 8-81 years; F:M ratio = 3.1:1) were diagnosed in an Italian tertiary referral center. Comorbidities and complications were recorded at diagnosis and during follow-up. RESULTS CD diagnoses quadrupled after 2000. The most frequent phenotype was the non-classical CD (63.3%), and the most prevalent histotype was Marsh 3C (44.7%). Gastrointestinal manifestations, detectable in 51% of patients, were diarrhea (24.3%), bloating (28%) and aphthous stomatitis (19.7%). The most common CD-associated disorder was osteopenia (59.9%), predominant in females (64.3%); extraintestinal manifestations included anemia (35.8% iron-deficiency; 87% folic acid malabsorption), cryptogenic hypertransaminasemia (27.9%), and recurrent miscarriages (11.5%). Thyroiditis (26.9%), type 1 diabetes mellitus (2.9%), and dermatitis herpetiformis (1.4%) were the most common CD-related autoimmune disorders. Six patients had inflammatory bowel disease. Complications and mortality rate occurred in 1.8% and 1.9%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS This single-center, large cohort analysis confirmed that CD presentation changed over the years, with an increase of non-classical and subclinical clinical phenotypes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Low bone mass density (BMD) is an extraintestinal finding in celiac disease (CD). This may result in bone fractures leading to loss in quality of life. OBJECTIVE To assess BMD in male CD patients at diagnosis according to the patient's age. METHODS Descriptive retrospective carried out during the period between 2013 and 2023 in a single office that studied dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) results in 28 male patients with a recent diagnosis of CD, divided into three groups: group 1 (age up to 18 years); group 2 (from 19 to 49 years of age) and group 3 (over 50 years of age). Were studied demographic and anthropometric parameters, time delay between symptoms onset and CD diagnosis and fracture occurrence. RESULTS Celiac patients studied had median age 36.0 years (IQR=16.5-50.7). Among them, 39.3% had osteopenia and 14.3% had osteoporosis. Only 36% of the sample had normal DXA values (group 1 with 37.5%; group 2 with 46% and group 3 with 14.2%). No pathological fracture was observed in this sample. CD diagnosis delay observed had median 1.0 year (IQR=1.0-4.7). When the number of individuals with normal and abnormal DXA results were compared, there was no difference in body mass index, time of diagnosis delay or Marsh classification (P=0.18). CONCLUSION Male patients at the time of CD diagnosis showed a high prevalence of low BMD, which was particularly evident in individuals over 50 years of age.

Nutrients 2024; 16:1814. [PMID: 38931169 PMCID: PMC11206979 DOI: 10.3390/nu16121814] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2024] [Revised: 06/04/2024] [Accepted: 06/06/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Millions of children and adults worldwide suffer from undiagnosed and untreated celiac disease (CeD). The clinical picture of CeD is highly heterogeneous and comprises manifestations that can affect almost the whole body. This narrative overview is aimed at characterizing diseases and complaints that are associated with unrecognized CeD and that frequently involve sites other than the gastrointestinal (G.I.) tract, i.e., dental, otorhinolaryngological, and ocular complications; skin and hair abnormalities; afflictions of the bones, joints, and muscles; cardiovascular affectations; kidney diseases; neuro-psychiatric disorders; and gynecological-obstetrical manifestations. The association between CeD and extra-GI manifestations is frequently overlooked, which leads to a delay in diagnosis. Most CeD-mediated disorders can be treated with a strict gluten-free diet (GFD), but some of them are irreversible unless CeD is diagnosed in time. Some manifestations can be classified as risk factors for CeD, and CeD screening tests for affected patients should be selectively considered. Apart from gastroenterologists, specialists in other medical disciplines can play an important role in identifying people with unrecognized CeD and may help prevent its progress and long-term complications. Further comprehensive investigations are necessary to clarify the pathogenesis of extra-GI manifestations and the effect of a GFD.

Abstract
Views on the clinical presentation and symptomatology of celiac disease have evolved alongside advances in disease detection and understanding of disease pathogenesis. Although historically regarded as a pediatric illness characterized by malabsorption, it is now better viewed as an immune illness of gluten-specific T cells with systemic manifestations affecting all ages. Its broad presentation, including frequent extraintestinal manifestations and asymptomatic disease, contributes to suboptimal disease detection. Adverse symptoms greatly impact patient quality of life and can result from chronic gluten exposure in untreated disease or those poorly responsive to the gluten-free diet. They can also present as acute symptoms after episodic gluten exposure. Functional gastrointestinal disease is a common comorbidity. Biomarkers like interleukin-2 that are highly sensitive and specific for celiac disease highlight a role for gluten-specific T cells in acute gluten symptomatology. A mechanistic understanding of symptoms will inform approaches to better measure and treat them effectively.

[PMID: 38474871 DOI: 10.3390/nu16050743] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/18/2024] [Revised: 02/29/2024] [Accepted: 03/01/2024] [Indexed: 03/14/2024] Open
Abstract
AIM The aim of this work is to assess the vitamin D levels, evaluated as plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D of children with a new diagnosis of celiac disease (CD), of children with a new onset of type 1 diabetes (T1D) and in children with CD at diagnosis of T1D (T1D&CD). METHODS In this single-center observational study, we collected data for four groups of children and adolescents: T1D, CD, T1D&CD, and a control group (CG). The CG included schoolchildren who had negative results during a mass screening campaign for CD and were not diagnosed for T1D, according to RIDI Marche registry data, were considered for the purposes of this study. Plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D, 25(OH)D2, and 25(OH)D3 were considered as the parameters for evaluating vitamin D nutritional status, and the date of measurement was recorded to analyze vitamin D level seasonality. Vitamin D nutritional status was categorized as follows: severe deficiency (<10 ng/mL), deficiency (<20 ng/mL), insufficiency (20-29 ng/mL), or sufficiency/adequacy (≥30 ng/mL). The Kruskal-Wallis test was used to compare the groups. The association of 25(OH)D levels with health conditions and seasonal differences of 25(OH)D levels was analyzed using a multiple linear regression model. RESULTS The number of children enrolled for the present study was 393: 131 in the CG, 131 CD, 109 T1D, and 22 T1D&CD. Significantly lower levels of vitamin D were displayed for children with CD, T1D, or both the diseases. Interestingly, severe vitamin D deficiency was detected in no children with CD, 1.5% of children in the CG, in 24.4% with T1D, and 31.8% with T1D&CD (p < 0.001). As expected, the CG children vitamin D levels were significantly influenced by seasonality. Contrarily, no seasonal differences were reported in children with CD, T1D, and T1D&CD. Multiple regression analysis showed that children with T1D and T1D&CD had lower 25(OH)D levels of 9.9 ng/mL (95% CI: 5.4; 14.5) and 14.4 ng/mL (95% CI: 6.2-22.7) compared to CG children (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Our results showed low levels of vitamin D diagnosis of T1D, CD, and T1D&CD; however, severe deficiency was only reported in children with T1D and T1D&CD. More studies are needed to better understand the role of this deficiency in children newly diagnosed with CD and T1D.

Abstract
Celiac disease (CD) is a chronic small intestinal immune-mediated enteropathy precipitated by exposure to dietary gluten in genetically predisposed individuals. The worldwide prevalence of CD is estimated to be 0.7-1.4% of the general population. Etiopathology of this disease is multifactorial, with genetic determinants being a major contributing player to CD susceptibility. Its manifestation embraces different organs, including the musculoskeletal apparat. Patients with CD have increased risk of bone disorders. According to data, bone disorders - osteopenia and osteoporosis - can affect up to 70% of patients with CD at diagnosis, and it decreases after the initiation of a gluten-free diet. Gluten consumption in patients with CD triggers an inflammatory reaction followed by tissue damage, and both; local and systemic inflammation can increase the risk of bone mass deterioration. Other theory assumes shortages of vitamin D and an impaired calcium absorption mechanism leading to secondary hyperparathyroidism. Taking into account the increasing prevalence of CD and osteoporosis, we broadly discuss genetic, immunological, dietary, gut microbiota, and environmental factors that could increase the risk of osteoporosis in CD. Furthermore, we discuss lifestyle and pharmacological preventing and treatment measures.

Abstract
Introduction Celiac disease (CD) is a systemic autoimmune enteropathy triggered by dietary gluten in genetically susceptible individuals. Celiac disease affects 0.6-1.0% of the population worldwide. The prevalence of CD in Pakistan is yet unknown due to under diagnosis and lack of awareness. Objective To determine a vast variety of presenting features in subtypes of CD to overcome the burden of disease. Materials and methods This was a prospective, comparative, cross-sectional study conducted at Gastroenterology department of Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Center, Karachi from December 2022 till June 2023. This study included all adult patients ≥18 years diagnosed with CD on the basis of clinical presentation, positive IgA and IgG anti-transglutaminase antibodies (value >12 IU/mL detected by ELISA followed by small intestinal biopsy classified as per Marsh criteria. The data obtained were analyzed on the statistical software SPSS version 23. Descriptive statistics were obtained by frequencies and percentages. Results About 142 patients were enrolled in the study, 103 (91.5%) had classical CD (CCD) whereas 36 (25%) had non-classical (NCCD). About 89 (62.7%) were females and 53 (37.3%) were males. The mean age was found to be 23 ± 6 years. Nutritional deficiencies including anemia, B12, folate, osteopenia and low body mass index (BMI) <18 was found more in CCD group as compared with NCCD group with significant p-values. Titers of anti-TTG between CCD and NCCD were not statistically significant. Hypothyroidism and PCOS were the most common associated conditions observed in adult CD patients. Conclusion In conclusion, CD in adults and has diverse presentations. Adults with unexplained extra-intestinal symptoms like anemia and bone pain should be investigated for CD.

Abstract
» Bone health optimization (BHO) has become an increasingly important consideration in orthopaedic surgery because deterioration of bone tissue and low bone density are associated with poor outcomes after orthopaedic surgeries.» Management of patients with compromised bone health requires numerous healthcare professionals including orthopaedic surgeons, primary care physicians, nutritionists, and metabolic bone specialists in endocrinology, rheumatology, or obstetrics and gynecology. Therefore, achieving optimal bone health before orthopaedic surgery necessitates a collaborative and synchronized effort among healthcare professionals.» Patients with poor bone health are often asymptomatic and may present to the orthopaedic surgeon for reasons other than poor bone health. Therefore, it is imperative to recognize risk factors such as old age, female sex, and low body mass index, which predispose to decreased bone density.» Workup of suspected poor bone health entails bone density evaluation. For patients without dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scan results within the past 2 years, perform DXA scan in all women aged 65 years and older, all men aged 70 years and older, and women younger than 65 years or men younger than 70 years with concurrent risk factors for poor bone health. All women and men presenting with a fracture secondary to low-energy trauma should receive DXA scan and bone health workup; for fractures secondary to high-energy trauma, perform DXA scan and further workup in women aged 65 years and older and men aged 70 years and older.» Failure to recognize and treat poor bone health can result in poor surgical outcomes including implant failure, periprosthetic infection, and nonunion after fracture fixation. However, collaborative healthcare teams can create personalized care plans involving nutritional supplements, antiresorptive or anabolic treatment, and weight-bearing exercise programs, resulting in BHO before surgery. Ultimately, this coordinated approach can enhance the success rate of surgical interventions, minimize complications, and improve patients' overall quality of life.

Abstract
Celiac disease (CD) is an autoimmune disease caused by an abnormal immune response triggered by ingestion of gluten. Treatment of CD is a lifelong gluten-free diet. Both diagnosed and undiagnosed CD has been found to be associated with reduced bone mineral density, which can lead to an increased risk of fractures. We therefore aimed to investigate the association of CD and the risk of fractures and osteoporosis in Denmark in a nationwide registry-based study. We identified all patients with CD (ICD-10 code K90.0) between 2000 and 2018 and included those with at least two contacts with a CD diagnosis. In total, 9397 CD patients and 93,964 randomly selected age- and sex-matched (1:10) references from the general population were identified. The overall hazard ratio (HR) of developing osteoporosis in CD patients compared with matches was 5.39 (95 % confidence interval (CI): 4.89, 5.95), however when excluding events of osteoporosis occurring within 12 months from the date of diagnosis the overall HR was reduced to 3.87 (95 % CI: 3.44, 4.33). The HR for major osteoporotic fractures was 1.37 (95 % CI: 1.25, 1.51) and for any fractures 1.27 (95 % CI: 1.18, 1.36). For osteoporosis, major osteoporotic fractures, and any fracture prior to diagnosis of CD the odds ratios comparing CD patients with matches were 4.32 (95 % CI: 3.64, 4.68), 1.29 (95 % CI: 1.21, 1.37) and 1.34 (95 % CI: 1.27, 1.41), respectively. Thus, this study showed an increased risk of osteoporosis and bone fractures among individuals with CD, both before and after diagnosis of CD. These results underline that the risk of osteoporosis should be considered in the clinical management of patients with CD and that early diagnosis and treatment could be important.

Abstract
This review summarizes findings from studies assessing the nutritional status of patients with celiac disease (CD). Malnutrition, including over- and undernutrition, may be present in CD, both at diagnosis and while under treatment. Underweight and growth retardation in children, which mostly reflect malabsorption as a consequence of intestinal inflammation, are not a rule. Clinical presentations of CD can vary widely, and each manifestation has its own characteristics. Evaluating various nutritional parameters can be beneficial for CD patients and may improve health outcomes by facilitating an accurate definition of dietary needs and the development of a balanced diet that not only focuses on eliminating gluten but also provides adequate nutrients, alters metabolism, and reduces the risk of other disorders developing. The cornerstone of CD therapy is a gluten-free diet (GFD), which improves nutritional status, but even on a GFD, features of malnutrition may be present. Additionally, overweight and obesity may occur in patients on a GFD, with typical metabolic consequences.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to analyze if celiac disease (CD) is associated with increased postoperative complications following single-level posterior lumbar fusion (PLF). METHODS A retrospective database review was performed using the PearlDiver dataset. The study population included all patients older than 18 years who underwent elective PLF with diagnosis of CD using International Classification of Diseases (ICD) and Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) codes. Study patients were compared with controls for 90-day medical complications and 2-year surgical complications including 5-year reoperation rates. A multivariate logistic regression was used to determine the independent effect of CD on the postoperative outcomes. RESULTS A total of 909 patients with CD and 4483 patients in the matched control group who underwent primary single-level PLF were included in this study. CD patients had a significantly increased risk of 90-day emergency department (ED) visit (OR 1.28; P = 0.020). CD patients also demonstrated higher rates of 2-year pseudarthrosis and instrument failure, but they were statistically comparable (P > 0.05). There was no difference in 5-year reoperation rate. There were also no significant differences in 90-day medical complication rate and 2-year surgical complication rate between the two groups. In addition, there were no differences in procedure cost and 90-day cost. CONCLUSIONS For CD patients undergoing PLF, the current study demonstrated increased rate of 90-day ED visit. Our findings may be useful for patient counseling and surgical planning for those with this condition.

Abstract
Celiac disease (CD) is an autoimmune disorder caused by gluten ingestion in genetically predisposed individuals. In addition to the typical gastrointestinal symptoms (e.g., diarrhea, bloating, and chronic abdominal pain), CD may also present with a broad spectrum of manifestations, including low bone mineral density (BMD) and osteoporosis. The etiopathology of bone lesions in CD is multifactorial and other conditions, rather than mineral and vitamin D malabsorption, may affect skeletal health, especially those related to the endocrine system. Here, we describe CD-induced osteoporosis in an attempt to enlighten new and less-known aspects, such as the influence of the intestinal microbiome and sex-related differences on bone health. This review describes the role of CD in the development of skeletal alterations to provide physicians with an updated overview on this debated topic and to improve the management of osteoporosis in CD.

Abstract
AIM The current study aims to evaluate bone mineral density (BMD) in patients with celiac disease who were referred to the celiac clinic of Shahid Rahimi Hospital in Khorramabad, Iran, in 2020. BACKGROUND Extraintestinal presentations of celiac disease are widespread and, if neglected, can be devastating. Osteoporosis, one of the extraintestinal manifestations of celiac disease, often remains undiagnosed until advanced stages and can impose a significant burden on patients with celiac and health systems. Nonetheless, the prevalence and characteristics of osteoporosis in celiac disease are unknown in Iran. METHODS This was a cross-sectional study at the celiac clinic of Shahid Rahimi Hospital in Khorramabad, Iran. Participants were 48 patients under 18 years diagnosed with Marsh II and Marsh III stages of celiac disease (who need to be on a gluten-free diet) at the pediatrics celiac clinic in 2020. All patients were recruited, completed a questionnaire, and had their blood biochemical parameters analyzed. Then their bone mineral density (BMD) was measured through dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry at the Asia Imaging Center in Khorramabad under the supervision of a radiologist and pediatric rheumatologist. RESULTS The mean age of the children was 9.96±3.17 years. The minimum and maximum ages of the participants were 4 and 17 years, respectively. Of all 48 children who were included (48), 34 (70.8%) were female, and 14 (29.2%) were male. In the femoral region bone densitometry, 35.4% were normal, 41.7% had lower limit normal, and 22.9% had low bone density. In the lumbar region, 39.6% were normal, 25% were Lower limit normal, and 35.4% had low bone density. No significant correlation was found between age, sex, place of residence, Marsh stage, gluten-free diet, and bone densitometry in both lumbar and femoral regions. Nonetheless, we detected a statistically significant relationship between bone density in the lumbar region and two HLA types, namely HLA DQ8 and HLA DQ2/8 (P=0.016). CONCLUSION The results of the current study provided further evidence that all children with advanced celiac disease should be screened for metabolic bone diseases. Besides those in Marsh II and Marsh III, patients in Marsh I stage should also be investigated for low bone mineral density.

Abstract
Impaired bone mineral density (BMD) is a frequent complication of adult-onset celiac disease (CeD). This is usually due to malabsorption of nutrients, changes in bone metabolism in association with inflammation, and to a lesser extent, decreased overall physical health and mobility. This review aims to highlight the current status concerning surveillance, prevention, and treatment strategies for bone disease in CeD. A practical guidance on these matters is suggested. The available published research on the prevention and treatment of decreased BMD in relation to CeD is scarce. In general, publications were based on expert opinions or extrapolation from studies on postmenopausal women or inflammatory bowel disease. Optimal dietary treatment and an adequate supply of calcium and vitamin D are the cornerstones for the reduction in fracture risk in patients with CeD. In adults with low BMD or fragility fractures, CeD needs to be considered and specifically approached. When osteoporosis is documented, start treatment with an antiresorptive agent; these agents are proven to result in a long-term reduction in fracture risk in high-risk individuals. However, there are some important differences between the management of male and female patients, particularly premenopausal women, that need to be addressed. In patients with persisting diarrhea and malabsorption, parenteral medications may be preferable. Future research specifically focusing on celiac disease and the associated disorders in bone mineralization is mandatory to provide evidence-based recommendations in this field.

Abstract
Celiac disease (CeD) is a chronic gluten-induced enteropathy with plethoric manifestations. The typical manifestations of CeD such as chronic diarrhea and malabsorption are widely recognized, however, many patients have atypical manifestations like iron deficiency anemia, idiopathic short stature, hypertransaminesemia or infertility, etc. These patients often present to the primary care physicians and/or non-gastrointestinal specialties. However, due to a lack of awareness among the healthcare professionals about the various atypical manifestations, many patients are not screened for CeD. In this review, we have summarized the available literature about the prevalence of CeD in various gastrointestinal (chronic diarrhea) and non-gastrointestinal conditions (iron deficiency anemia, short stature, cryptogenic hypertransaminesemia, cryptogenic cirrhosis or idiopathic ataxia etc.) where the diagnosis of CeD should be con-sidered. In addition, we also discuss special scenarios where screening for CeD should be considered even in absence of symptoms such as patients with type 1 diabetes, Down’s syndrome, and first-degree relatives of patients with CeD. Further, we discuss the diagnostic performance and limitations of various screening tests for CeD such as IgA anti-tissue transglutaminase antibodies, anti-endomysial antibodies and anti-deamidated gliadin antibodies. Based on the current recommendations, we propose a diagnostic algorithm for patients with suspected CeD.

Abstract
Coeliac disease is a lifelong immune-mediated enteropathy with systemic features associated with increased morbidity and modestly increased mortality. Treatment with a strict gluten-free diet improves symptoms and mucosal damage but is not curative and low-level gluten intake is common despite strict attempts at adherence. Regular follow-up after diagnosis is considered best-practice however this is executed poorly in the community with the problem compounded by the paucity of data informing optimal approaches. The aim of dietary treatment is to resolve symptoms, reduce complication risk and improve quality of life. It follows that the goals of monitoring are to assess dietary adherence, monitor disease activity, assess symptoms and screen for complications. Mucosal disease remission is regarded a key measure of treatment success as healing is associated with positive health outcomes. However, persistent villous atrophy is common, even after many years of a gluten-free diet. As the clinical significance of asymptomatic enteropathy is uncertain the role for routine follow-up biopsies remains contentious. Symptomatic non-responsive coeliac disease is common and with systematic follow-up a cause is usually found. Effective models of care involving the gastroenterologist, dietitian and primary care doctor will improve the consistency of long-term management and likely translate into better patient outcomes. Identifying suitable treatment targets linked to long-term health is an important goal.
