Abstract
Coeliac disease (CeD) is an immunological disease triggered by the consumption of gluten contained in food in individuals with a genetic predisposition. Diagnosis is based on the presence of small bowel mucosal atrophy and circulating autoantibodies (anti-type 2 transglutaminase antibodies). After diagnosis, patients follow a strict, life-long gluten-free diet. Although the criteria for diagnosis of this disease are well defined, the monitoring phase has been studied less and there is a lack of specific guidelines for this phase. To develop a set of clinical guidelines for CeD monitoring, we followed the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation methodology. Statements and recommendations with the level of evidence were developed and approved by the working group, which comprised gastroenterologists, pathologists, dieticians and biostatisticians. The proposed guidelines, endorsed by the North American and European coeliac disease scientific societies, make recommendations for best practices in monitoring patients with CeD based on the available evidence. The evidence level is low for many topics, suggesting that further research in specific aspects of CeD would be valuable. In conclusion, the present guidelines support clinicians in improving CeD treatment and follow-up and highlight novel issues that should be considered in future studies.

Abstract
MR1: ESGE recommends small-bowel capsule endoscopy as the first-line examination, before consideration of other endoscopic and radiological diagnostic tests for suspected small-bowel bleeding, given the excellent safety profile of capsule endoscopy, its patient tolerability, and its potential to visualize the entire small-bowel mucosa.Strong recommendation, moderate quality evidence. MR2: ESGE recommends small-bowel capsule endoscopy in patients with overt suspected small-bowel bleeding as soon as possible after the bleeding episode, ideally within 48 hours, to maximize the diagnostic and subsequent therapeutic yield.Strong recommendation, high quality evidence. MR3: ESGE does not recommend routine second-look endoscopy prior to small-bowel capsule endoscopy in patients with suspected small-bowel bleeding or iron-deficiency anemia.Strong recommendation, low quality evidence. MR4: ESGE recommends conservative management in those patients with suspected small-bowel bleeding and high quality negative small-bowel capsule endoscopy.Strong recommendation, moderate quality evidence. MR5: ESGE recommends device-assisted enteroscopy to confirm and possibly treat lesions identified by small-bowel capsule endoscopy.Strong recommendation, high quality evidence. MR6: ESGE recommends the performance of small-bowel capsule endoscopy as a first-line examination in patients with iron-deficiency anemia when small bowel evaluation is indicated.Strong recommendation, high quality evidence. MR7: ESGE recommends small-bowel capsule endoscopy in patients with suspected Crohn's disease and negative ileocolonoscopy findings as the initial diagnostic modality for investigating the small bowel, in the absence of obstructive symptoms or known bowel stenosis.Strong recommendation, high quality evidence. MR8: ESGE recommends, in patients with unremarkable or nondiagnostic findings from dedicated small-bowel cross-sectional imaging, small-bowel capsule endoscopy as a subsequent investigation if deemed likely to influence patient management.Strong recommendation, low quality evidence. MR9: ESGE recommends, in patients with established Crohn's disease, the use of a patency capsule before small-bowel capsule endoscopy to decrease the capsule retention rate.Strong recommendation, moderate quality evidence. MR10: ESGE recommends device-assisted enteroscopy (DAE) as an alternative to surgery for foreign bodies retained in the small bowel requiring retrieval in patients without acute intestinal obstruction.Strong recommendation, moderate quality evidence. MR11: ESGE recommends DAE-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (DAE-ERCP) as a first-line endoscopic approach to treat pancreaticobiliary diseases in patients with surgically altered anatomy (except for Billroth II patients).Strong recommendation, moderate quality evidence.

Abstract
Data has indicated that gluten-free (GF) foods are more expensive and have lower nutritional value than their gluten-containing (GC) counterparts. The aim of the present study was to compare the cost and nutrient content between GF and GC staple foods and determine whether the number and price of GF staple foods differed based on type of store or location within Winnipeg, Canada. Twelve grocery stores (2 chain stores/quadrant;1 local store/quadrant) in the four quadrants (northwest, northeast, southwest, southeast) of Winnipeg were visited to identify GF staple products (bread, flour, cereal, pasta) along with a GC comparator. A total of 819 GF products along with GC comparators were identified. The median cost of GF products ($1.50/100 g) was 131 % greater than that of GC ($0.65/100 g) (p < 0.0001). The greatest difference in cost was between GF and GC flour, with the least difference occurring between GF and GC cereal. GF products were 58, 36 and 100 % lower in iron, protein and saturated fat (p < 0.0001) than their GC comparators, respectively. The number of GF staple products was 370 % higher (p < 0.007) at chain stores than at local stores, whereas store location did not significantly affect the number of GF products available. The greatest difference in number of different GF foods based on store type was for cereals, with the least being for flours. These results confirm that GF staple foods are more expensive and have lower nutritional value (mainly due to lower iron and protein content) compared to GC foods.

What is the role of small bowel capsule endoscopy in established coeliac disease? Clin Res Hepatol Gastroenterol 2020; 44:753-761. [PMID: 31928969 DOI: 10.1016/j.clinre.2019.11.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/12/2019] [Revised: 11/22/2019] [Accepted: 11/25/2019] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Patients with established coeliac disease (CD) can present with signs and symptoms requiring small bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE) to assess for persistent disease beyond the duodenum and to rule out complications. There is paucity of data on extent of disease on SBCE in relation to histology, clinical and serological parameters. The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between symptoms, CD serology and Marsh classification of disease and extent of disease on SBCE in patients with established CD. METHODS Hundred patients with established CD and 200 controls underwent a SBCE. SBCEs were reviewed by expert reviewers. Extent of disease on SBCE, CD findings and small bowel transit were recorded. RESULTS Considering duodenal histology (D2; Marsh 3a or above) as the gold standard for diagnosing CD activity, the sensitivity of SBCE to delineate active disease was 87.2%. The specificity was 89.0%. Age at SBCE (P=0.006), albumin (P=0.004) and haemoglobin (P=0.0001), Marsh score of histology from the duodenal bulb (D1) (P=0.0001) and the second part of the duodenum (P=0.0001), refractory CD (P=0.007) on histology correlated with extent of affected small bowel (SB) mucosa on univariate analysis. On multiple regression analysis, albumin (P=0.036) and Marsh score of histology (D1) (P=0.019), vitamin B12 (P=0.001) and folate levels (P=0.008) were statistically significant. Extent of affected SB mucosa (11.0% vs 1.35%) was greater in patients with complications including those with refractory CD (P=0.008). CONCLUSIONS This is the first study showing correlation between extent of disease and severity of duodenal histology, markers of malabsorption such as folate levels and vitamin B12 and complications of CD.

Abstract
Celiac disease (CD) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by intolerance to dietary gluten in genetically predisposed subjects. Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is a common sign in CD, being the only abnormality in approximately 40% of celiac patients. A multifactorial etiology leads to IDA in CD. The two main causes are the villous atrophy of the mucosa at the site of iron absorption (the duodenum) and the resulting inflammation, which triggers the mechanism that leads to the anemia of chronic disease. Until now, it has been unclear why some patients with CD continue to have IDA despite a careful gluten-free diet (GFD) and the normalization of villous atrophy. Furthermore, some celiac patients are refractory to oral iron supplementation despite the healing of the mucosa, and they thus require periodic intravenous iron administration. The Marsh classification evaluates the degree of inflammation and villous atrophy, but it does not assess the possible persistence of ultrastructural and molecular alterations in enterocytes. The latter was found in CD in remission after adopting a GFD and could be responsible for the persistently reduced absorption of iron and IDA. Even in non-celiac gluten sensitivity, anemia is present in 18.5-22% of patients and appears to be related to ultrastructural and molecular alterations in intestinal microvilli. It is possible that a genetic component may also play a role in IDA. In this review, we evaluate and discuss the main mechanisms of IDA in CD and the possible causes of its persistence after adopting a GFD, as well as their therapeutic implications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The relation between symptomatology, serology and findings on small bowel capsule endoscopy (SBCE) in patients with coeliac disease (CD) remains unclear. Clarifying such associations will help to determine whether symptoms and serology can predict severity and extent of disease on SBCE. METHODS Patients with newly diagnosed CD were recruited. Information on SBCE was recorded. Signs and symptoms at presentation, serological markers and histological classification of the disease in the duodenum were noted. RESULTS Sixty patients with newly diagnosed CD (mean age: 44.9 years, SD: ±17.4, 17-76) were included in this study. Older patients (P = 0.025) and patients presenting with iron deficiency anaemia had more extensive small bowel (SB) involvement (25.7% vs. 13.5%; P = 0.026). Those with weight loss were more likely to have SB involvement beyond the duodenum (37.5% vs. 5.8%; P = 0.027). Patients presenting with iron deficiency anaemia (53.5 vs. 42.4 years; P = 0.038) and weight loss (60.5 vs. 42.4 years; P = 0.009) were significantly older at diagnosis. Serum albumin was lower in those patients diagnosed later on in life (Pearson correlation -0.0361; P = 0.007). There was no significant association between anti-tissue transglutaminase antibody (P = 0.396) and extent of affected SB mucosa. Patients with more severe Marsh scores on histology from the duodenal bulb had more extensive SB involvement (P = 0.017). CONCLUSIONS This is the largest study on the use of SBCE in newly diagnosed CD. Older patients are likely to have more extensive disease on SBCE at diagnosis. Symptoms and serology had no impact on the findings on SBCE apart from weight loss and iron deficiency anaemia.

Multifactorial Etiology of Anemia in Celiac Disease and Effect of Gluten-Free Diet: A Comprehensive Review. Nutrients 2019; 11:nu11112557.

Abstract
Celiac disease (CD) is a multisystemic disorder with different clinical expressions, from malabsorption with diarrhea, anemia, and nutritional compromise to extraintestinal manifestations. Anemia might be the only clinical expression of the disease, and iron deficiency anemia is considered one of the most frequent extraintestinal clinical manifestations of CD. Therefore, CD should be suspected in the presence of anemia without a known etiology. Assessment of tissue anti-transglutaminase and anti-endomysial antibodies are indicated in these cases and, if positive, digestive endoscopy and intestinal biopsy should be performed. Anemia in CD has a multifactorial pathogenesis and, although it is frequently a consequence of iron deficiency, it can be caused by deficiencies of folate or vitamin B12, or by blood loss or by its association with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or other associated diseases. The association between CD and IBD should be considered during anemia treatment in patients with IBD, because the similarity of symptoms could delay the diagnosis. Vitamin B12 deficiency is common in CD and may be responsible for anemia and peripheral myeloneuropathy. Folate deficiency is a well-known cause of anemia in adults, but there is little information in children with CD; it is still unknown if anemia is a symptom of the most typical CD in adult patients either by predisposition due to the fact of age or because biochemical and clinical manifestations take longer to appear.

Abstract
Celiac disease predominantly involves the proximal small bowel, but villus atrophy can be patchy, spare the duodenum, and be present more distally. Video capsule endoscopy is more sensitive than standard endoscopy to detect villus atrophy, and can define extent of disease, though it cannot obtain biopsies. Duodenal biopsy is the gold standard for diagnosis. Video capsule endoscopy assists in special circumstances when biopsy is not possible, and in equivocal diagnosis. Video capsule endoscopy and enteroscopy are recommended for evaluating complicated celiac disease, especially refractory celiac disease type II. Future developments include computer-assisted capsule programs and advanced capsule and enteroscope design.

Abstract
Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) occurs in 15–46% of patients with celiac disease (CD), and in some cases, it may be its only manifestation. Studies in animal models have shown that prebiotics, including inulin, may help to increase intestinal absorption of iron. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a prebiotic, oligofructose-enriched inulin (Synergy 1), on iron homeostasis in non-anemic children and adolescents with celiac disease (CD) in association with a gluten-free diet (GFD). Thirty-four CD patients (4–18 years old) were randomized into two groups receiving Synergy 1 (10 g/day) or a placebo (maltodextrin) for three months. Before and after intervention, blood samples were collected from all patients for assessment of blood morphology, biochemical parameters and serum hepcidin concentration. We found that serum hepcidin concentration after the intervention was significantly decreased by 60.9% (p = 0.046) in the Synergy 1 group, whereas no significant difference was observed in the placebo group. No differences in morphological and biochemical blood parameters (including ferritin, hemoglobin and C-reactive protein (CRP)) were observed after intervention in either group. Given that hepcidin decrease may improve intestinal iron absorption, these results warrant further investigation in a larger cohort and especially in patients with IDA.

Abstract
Background and Aims Anemia is one of the most common extraintestinal manifestations of celiac disease (CD), with iron deficiency anemia (IDA) being the predominant cause. However, anemia in CD can have varied etiologies, including mixed nutritional deficiency. We aimed to study the prevalence and etiology of anemia in CD in a north Indian population. Methods In this prospective observational study, consecutive patients with documented CD between January 2012 and December 2013 were included, and all patients underwent detailed clinical assessment; hematological investigations including iron profile, serum folate, and vitamin B12 levels; and esophageoduodenoscopy with duodenal biopsies for histopathological examination. Prevalence of anemia and different deficiencies were calculated, and a correlation between hematological parameters and histological findings was found. Results Of the 103 patients studied, anemia was detected in 96 patients, giving a prevalence of 93.2% with a baseline hemoglobin of 8.94 ± 2.54 g/dL. Overall, iron deficiency was seen in 84 (81.5%) patients, followed by vitamin B12 deficiency in 14 (13.6%) and folate deficiency in 11 (10.7%) patients; 17 (16.5%) patients had anemia due to mixed nutritional deficiencies, and 4 (3.9%) patients had anemia of chronic disease. The mean hemoglobin and median ferritin levels were significantly lower in patients with severe villous atrophy compared to those with mild atrophy. Conclusion Anemia in patients with CD is multifactorial. Even though iron deficiency is the most common cause, other nutrient deficiencies should always be explored.
