Abstract
Celiac disease (CD) is an immune-mediated disease with patients being prone to a proinflammatory state. With recent studies showing an association between adverse cardiovascular events in patients with CD, we aim to further elucidate this relationship. Furthermore, when risk-stratifying patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD), chronic inflammatory conditions such as CD are not included in these calculations. We conducted a retrospective analysis using the National Inpatient Sample database from 2016 to 2019 to investigate the relationship between CD and adverse cardiovascular events. Our secondary endpoints include examining patient demographics, underlying comorbidities, in-hospital mortality, and cost of hospitalization. In addition, we performed a subgroup analysis in the CD cohort to assess if concomitant iron deficiency anemia increased CVD. Our study aims to examine the association between atherosclerosis and inflammation and aims to be a stepping stone for future long-term randomized controlled trials for the incorporation into atherosclerotic CVD risk score stratification.

Abstract
Wheat species with various ploidy levels may be different regarding their immunoreactive potential in celiac disease (CD), but a comprehensive comparison of peptide sequences with known epitopes is missing. Thus, we used an untargeted liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry method to analyze the content of peptides with CD-active epitope in the five wheat species common wheat, spelt, durum wheat, emmer, and einkorn. In total, 494 peptides with CD-active epitope were identified. Considering the average of the eight cultivars of each species, spelt contained the highest number of different peptides with CD-active epitope (193 ± 12, mean ± SD). Einkorn showed the smallest variability of peptides (63 ± 4) but higher amounts of certain peptides compared to the other species. The wheat species differ in the presence and distribution of CD-active epitopes; hence, the entirety of peptides with CD-active epitope is crucial for the assessment of their immunoreactive potential.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Celiac disease is a common chronic inflammatory condition of the small bowel triggered by gluten in wheat, rye and barley in the diet. Non-celiac gluten sensitivity presents with symptoms similar to celiac disease with the ingestion of gluten or other components of wheat. In this article, we review challenges presented by a gluten free diet for the treatment of both disorders. RECENT FINDINGS Wheat is ubiquitous in the diet and medications/products. A registered dietitian is mandatory for patient education on the gluten free diet. Naturally gluten free foods provide a healthy diet for those with celiac disease. Whole grains labelled gluten free, including oats, are encouraged in the diet as refined grains may be deficient in fiber, protein, and micronutrients, particularly folate. Gluten contamination is the most common cause of persistent symptoms in celiac disease though shared equipment of food preparation may not be as large a problem as suspected. Most with celiac disease on a gluten free diet will fully recover and gain weight that poses a problem for those overweight to start. The gluten free diet may have a negative impact on quality of life for both celiac patients and their families. Those with hypervigilance of the gluten free diet and avoidance of dining out have the lowest quality of life. The gluten free diet is currently the only effective treatment for celiac disease. A registered dietitian is needed to educate patients on the complexity of the gluten free diet with a goal of healthy eating, maintaining a healthy weight, and avoiding disordered eating or diet hypervigilance; key to a good quality of life.

Abstract
In its conventional form, celiac disease (CeD) is characterized by both positive serology and flat villi in the duodenum, and is well known by gastroenterologists and general practitioners. The aim of this review was to shed light on 2 neglected and not yet well-defined celiac phenotypes, that is, seronegative and ultrashort CeD. Seronegative CeD can be suspected in the presence of flat villi, positive HLA-DQ2 and/or HLA-DQ8, and the absence of CeD antibodies. After ruling out other seronegative enteropathies, the diagnosis can be confirmed by both clinical and histologic improvements after 1 year of a gluten-free diet. Ultrashort CeD is characterized by the finding of flat villi in the duodenal bulb in the absence of mucosal damage in the distal duodenum and with serologic positivity. Data on the prevalence, clinical manifestations, histologic lesions, genetic features, and outcome of seronegative and ultrashort CeD are inconclusive due to the few studies available and the small number of patients diagnosed. Some additional diagnostic tools have been developed recently, such as assessing intestinal transglutaminase 2 deposits, flow cytometry technique, microRNA detection, or proteomic analysis, and they seem to be useful in the identification of complex cases. Further cooperative studies are highly desirable to improve the knowledge of these 2 still-obscure variants of CeD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Celiac disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the small intestine induced and maintained by gluten ingestion in susceptible individuals. Current treatment consists of strict adherence to a lifelong gluten-free diet (GFD) which is considered safe and effective in the large majority of patients. However, since adherence to a GFD is difficult and has a negative impact on quality of life, an increasing interest in other treatment options has emerged. Moreover, in some individuals a GFD is not sufficiently effective, necessitating alternative treatments. METHODS By performing a systematic search, we constructed a detailed narrative review. Only treatment options considered relevant and conducted in a phase I, II or III clinical trial were included. RESULTS Based on the pathophysiology of CD, four major therapeutic approaches can be distinguished: firstly, by focusing on intraluminal gluten detoxification before absorption occurs, secondly, by modulating intestinal permeability and preventing paracellular uptake, thirdly, by enhancing immunological tolerance to gluten and finally, by regulating gluten auto-immunity. CONCLUSIONS Despite significant efforts, no treatment has yet completed a phase III clinical trial. Future studies will likely focus on the use of supplemental drugs in conjunction to a GFD, with ALV003 and ZED-1227 currently being the most promising therapeutic options.

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.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Celiac Disease (CD) is associated with increased susceptibility to certain bacterial and viral infections. Herpes zoster (HZ) is a viral infection that can be prevented by immunization. In the US, the vaccine is recommended for adults ≥ 50 or ≥ 19 with certain at-risk conditions, not including CD. AIMS We aimed to determine if adult patients aged < 50 or ≥ 50 years with CD had a higher risk of developing HZ. METHODS We designed a retrospective cohort study. CD was defined as patients with the ICD-10 code for CD and positive Celiac serology. Patients with negative serology and lacking CD ICD-10 codes served as controls. Patients who had HZ before CD diagnosis were excluded. We formed two sub-cohorts, those aged < 50 (cohort 1) and aged ≥ 50 years (cohort 2), and evaluated HZ infection at 10-year follow-up. To account for confounding variables, we performed 1:1 propensity score matching (PSM). RESULTS Following PSM, cohort 1 had 6,826 CD patients, and cohort 2 had 5,337 CD patients and respective matched controls. After ten years of follow-up, in cohort 1, 62 CD patients developed HZ versus 57 controls, RR: 1.09 (CI: 0.76-1.56, p-value = 0.64). In cohort 2, 200 CD patients developed HZ versus 159 controls, RR: 1.2 (CI: 1.02-1.54, p-value = 0.03). CONCLUSION There was no significant difference in the likelihood of getting HZ in CD patients < 50, although CD patients ≥ 50 had a modestly increased risk. Our findings do not support routine early vaccination for HZ in CD, and the vaccine should be offered at age 50.

Abstract
In recent years, the consumption of gluten-free products has increased due to the increasing prevalence of celiac disease and the increased preference for gluten-free diets. This study aimed to make cookies using a mixture of cañihua flour, whey, and potato starch. The use of a Box-Behnken design allowed for flexible ingredient proportions and physicochemical properties, centesimal composition, color, texture, and sensory attributes to be evaluated through consumer tests (Sorting and acceptability). The results highlighted significant variations in physicochemical data, composition, color, and texture across formulations. The blend with 38.51% cañihua flour, 10.91% sweet whey, 25.69% potato starch, 8.34% margarine, 11.10% sugar, 0.19% sodium chloride, 0.51% baking powder, 0.51% vanilla essence, and 4.24% egg exhibited superior sensory appeal. This formulation boasted excellent texture, aroma, flavor, color, and appearance, indicating high sensory and physicochemical quality. The use of cañihua flour, sweet whey, and potato starch not only provides a gluten-free option but also delivers a nutritious and sensorily pleasing choice for those with dietary restrictions. Future research could explore the commercial viability of producing these cookies on a larger scale, as well as investigating the potential health benefits of these ingredients.

Abstract
Belatedly, gastroenterologists have begun to pay attention to the role of diet in the exacerbation of gastrointestinal symptoms in many digestive disorders-a recognition that has spurred both high-quality clinical trials and translational research into this area. It has become clear that multiple mechanisms acting either in isolation or together can induce gut symptoms and that appropriate interventions can lead to significant relief. What this review will explore is not the role of diet in the production of certain symptoms or symptom clusters, but rather whether a dietary intervention can beneficially alter the natural history of a gastrointestinal disease-a much more demanding expectation. Yet there are examples of where a diet, if sustained, can have a long-term impact on at least some of those affected by conditions such as eosinophilic esophagitis, celiac disease, food allergy, and constipation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Some studies have suggested a link between celiac disease (CD) and adverse maternal, obstetrical, and neonatal outcomes. Using a large database, we evaluated the effect of CD on pregnancy outcomes. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study using the National Inpatient Sample (NIS) of all deliveries from 2015 to 2019 in the United States. Using ICD-10 codes, we identified pregnant patients who had CD and those who did not. A multivariate logistic regression was used to generate odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for maternal, obstetrical, and neonatal outcomes. RESULTS Of 12,039,222 deliveries between 2015 and 2019, there were 10,555 births in women with CD. Pregnant women with CD were more likely to be white and older compared to those without CD. Pregnant women with CD were significantly more likely to carry a diagnosis of gestational hypertension (OR 1.26; 95% CI 1.04-1.52), preeclampsia (1.28; 1.08-1.53), and severe preeclampsia (1.62; 1.25-2.09). They were less likely to have a full-term uncomplicated delivery (OR 0.11; 95% CI, 0.05-0.20), while being more likely to require device-assisted delivery (1.25; 1.04-1.50) and sustain 3rd or 4th degree vaginal lacerations (1.56; 1.21-2.02). Babies of pregnant women with CD were more likely to be small for gestational age (SGA) (OR 1.29; 95% CI 1.03-1.61). CONCLUSIONS CD in pregnancy appears to be associated with increased adverse maternal, obstetrical, and neonatal outcomes. Clinicians should discuss these increased risks with CD patients who are planning to conceive.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the properties of buckwheat flour-based gluten-free muffins formulated by using corn flour (CF), Spirulina powder (SP), and buffalo yogurt (BY) levels as the factors in the Box-Behnken experimental design. The color values, total soluble polyphenol content (TPC), radical scavenging activity (RSA), specific volume, moisture content, and baking loss results were evaluated as the response variables in the design. The buckwheat flour in the control sample was substituted with CF and SP. Cow yogurt was used in the control muffin instead of milk and was substituted with BY at different levels in other samples. Among the response variables, TPC and RSA values were selected for the optimization studies. Decreasing the CF and SP levels in the formulations resulted in observing higher TPC and RSA values. Three optimal formulations were obtained by response surface methodology. Both cow and buffalo yogurt did not change the properties of the muffins adversely compared to milk. Increasing the SP content made the muffins firmer and caused a decrease in the L*, a*, b*, and browning index values of the muffins. However, sensory scores of SP-containing muffins were also satisfactory.

BACKGROUND The utility of routine follow-up biopsy in patients after a diagnosis of celiac disease is uncertain, especially in patients whose symptoms resolve on the gluten-free diet. PATIENTS AND METHODS Using the Merative MarketScan U.S. commercial insurance and Medicare databases, we identified 30,737 patients with biopsy-diagnosed celiac disease. We followed them until they had a second duodenal biopsy (our primary outcome) or insurance coverage ended. RESULTS Among the patients with celiac disease we identified, 5976 (19.4%) underwent a follow-up biopsy. The median time between initial and follow-up biopsies was 16.8 months. Compared with younger patients, those aged 20 years or older had an increased likelihood of undergoing a follow-up biopsy (cumulative incidence rate at 5 y for patients age ≥20 y was 36.0%, 95% CI: 35.0%-37.1% vs 21.9%, 95% CI: 20.5%-23.4% in patients age ≤19 y). Follow-up biopsies occurred less frequently in more recent calendar years. Follow-up biopsy was more common among patients with an Elixhauser Comorbidity Index of 1 (hazard ratio: 1.09; 95% CI: 1.01-1.17) or ≥2 (hazard ratio: 1.28; 95% CI: 1.20-1.37) compared with patients with an index of zero. Among patients who had a follow-up biopsy, 57% had a celiac disease-related symptom recorded in the 30 days before the procedure. CONCLUSIONS Follow-up duodenal biopsy is performed in a substantial minority of U.S. patients with celiac disease. Adult age and increased comorbidity burden were associated with a greater likelihood of follow-up biopsy. Just under half of follow-up biopsies are performed for routine surveillance, in the absence of persistent symptoms.

Abstract
Celiac disease is a growing global public health concern. This epidemiological study is aimed at determining the prevalence of celiac disease in Kermanshah, Western Iran, from 2019 to 2021, as well as the frequency of gastrointestinal and nongastrointestinal manifestations associated with the disease. In this cross-sectional study, the medical records of all patients with a confirmed diagnosis of celiac disease between 2019 and 2021 were reviewed. The average population during the study period was 2,058,545. A researcher-developed checklist was used as the data collection tool, and descriptive statistics were employed for data analysis. During the study period, there were 113 patients diagnosed with celiac disease, with a mean age of 29.1 ± 16.6 years. The three-year prevalence of celiac disease was 5.49 (95% CI: 5.17-5.82) per 100,000 population. Among these patients, 70% (n = 78) was female. The most common gastrointestinal manifestations of the disease were abdominal pain (77.8%), constipation (59.3%), and diarrhea (54.9%). Iron-deficiency anemia (64.6%) and vitamin D3 deficiency (46.1%) were the most common nongastrointestinal manifestations. Growth retardation was observed in 39.0% of patients. This study demonstrated a higher prevalence of celiac disease in Kermanshah compared to global statistics. Given the association of celiac disease with other conditions such as diabetes, irritable bowel syndrome, growth retardation, and iron-deficiency anemia, healthcare providers should consider screening patients for celiac disease. Furthermore, community-based education is crucial in raising awareness about the significance of adhering to a proper diet and reducing wheat consumption.

Abstract
Celiac disease is a common inflammatory disease of the small bowel that induces mucosal intestinal lesions. The disease is mediated by an immune response and triggered by the ingestion of gluten in genetically predisposed individuals. Gluten contains gliadin, a component found mostly in wheat, barley, and rye. This process leads to gastrointestinal malabsorption with symptoms such as diarrhea, constipation, abdominal pain, and distention. It has a prevalence of 1%-2% in the general adult population, who present with symptoms at any age, but is more frequently found in adult women in the 3rd or 4th decade of life. Recognition of the disease has increased, but it remains a challenge to diagnose. CT and MR enterography are noninvasive studies used for evaluation of small bowel neoplasms and inflammatory small bowel pathologic conditions such as celiac disease. The authors review the spectrum of intestinal and extraintestinal findings of celiac disease at CT and MR enterography, as well as its complications, and the importance of recognizing certain imaging features that help in the diagnosis of celiac disease. More common and specific findings of celiac disease such as inversion of the jejunoileal fold pattern and mesenteric lymphadenopathy are reviewed. More uncommon entities that are more frequently associated with refractory or untreated celiac disease, such as ulcerative jejunoileitis, cavitary mesenteric lymph node syndrome, and malignancies including small bowel adenocarcinoma and lymphoma, are described. ©RSNA, 2024 Test Your Knowledge questions for this article are available in the supplemental material.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND AIMS Celiac disease (CD) is an autoimmune enteropathy that develops in genetically susceptible individuals. The typical gastrointestinal manifestation is diarrhea but symptoms of dyspepsia, such as epigastric pain, nausea, or satiety, can sometimes appear. Previous studies have reported that the prevalence of CD in patients with dyspepsia can be as high as 7%. The aim of the present study was to evaluate CD seroprevalence in subjects with dyspeptic symptoms and a control group in a Mexican population. MATERIAL AND METHODS A case-control study was conducted on blood donors that answered the PAGI-SYM questionnaire for dyspepsia and in whom IgA antibodies to tissue transglutaminase 2 (IgA anti-tTG2) and IgG antibodies to deamidated gliadin peptide (IgG anti-DGP) were determined. CD seroprevalence in subjects with dyspeptic symptoms and in asymptomatic subjects was compared. RESULTS A total of 427 subjects (76.3% men), with a mean patient age of 34 years (range of 18-65 years) were included. Of those participants, 87 (20.3%) had symptoms of dyspepsia (group A) and 340 (79.6%) were asymptomatic (group B). Antibodies were positive in one (1.15%) of the group A subjects (1/87, 95% CI 0.2-6 %), whereas they were positive in 4 (1.18%) of the group B subjects (4/340, 95% CI 0.4-2.9%, p = 0.59). CONCLUSIONS CD seroprevalence in the study population with dyspeptic symptoms (1%) was not different from that of the control population. Thus, CD screening in Mexican patients with dyspepsia is not justified.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Celiac disease is a chronic autoimmune disorder that occurs following the ingestion of gluten, in genetically predisposed individuals. Patients with celiac disease, especially children, are likely prone to develop allergic reactions to different food allergens. However, the relationship between food allergy and celiac disease remains not elucidated. The aim of this pioneering study was to evaluate the prevalence of allergic food sensitization in children with celiac disease in Morocco. METHODS A total of 57 children with confirmed celiac disease, including 25 males and 32 females with a mean age of 8.6 ± 4.4 years, underwent a food allergen-specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) screening. This screening was conducted using a multiparametric immunodot assay (Euroline Food "Maghreb," Euroimmun). Statistical analysis was performed using R software. RESULTS Among the 57 cases tested, the overall rate of IgE-mediated sensitization to food allergens was found to be 48% (27/57), dominated by chicken, with 51.9% (14/27), followed by almond, 40.7% (11/27), sesame, 40.7% (11/27), potato 33.3% (9/27), and apple 18.5% (5/27). Of the s-IgE positive cases, 74% were sensitized at least to one allergen, 37% (10/27) were sensitized to both chicken and almond allergens. A significant correlation was observed between almond, sesame, chicken, and potato. CONCLUSION The current study highlighted a high prevalence of food allergen sensitization in children with celiac disease. This underlines the potential benefit in screening for food allergy in celiac patients.

Abstract
Celiac disease (CD) is an immune-mediated condition affecting the small intestine. Its reported global prevalence falls within the range of 0.7% to 1.4%. Notably, historically, higher rates, reaching 1% in Western Ireland, have been documented. Recent research has even revealed prevalence rates as elevated as 2% in northern Europe. These findings underscore the urgency for swift and cost-effective diagnosis, especially in individuals identified through screening efforts. At present, the diagnosis of CD relies on a multifaceted approach involving positive serological markers such as IgA anti-tissue transglutaminase (anti-TTG) and anti-endomysial antibodies (anti-EMA). These serological findings are assessed in conjunction with classical histological alterations, as outlined in the Marsh classification. CD is an inflammatory condition triggered by the consumption of gluten, resulting from intricate interactions between genetic, immunological, and environmental factors. CD is linked to malabsorption, leading to nutritional deficiencies. Individuals with CD are required to adhere to a gluten-free diet, which itself can lead to nutrient deficiencies. One such deficiency includes vitamin D, and there is substantial experimental evidence supporting the notion of a bidirectional relationship between CD and vitamin D status. A low level of vitamin D has a detrimental impact on the clinical course of the disease. Here we summarize the key characteristics of CD and explore the prominent roles of vitamin D in individuals with CD.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Celiac disease is a chronic immune-mediated disease, which is triggered and maintained by gluten in genetically susceptible individuals. Eating disorders are a persistent disturbance in eating-related behavior that results in altered food consumption or absorption and that significantly impairs physical health or psychosocial functioning. OBJECTIVE This study aimed at evaluating the prevalence of eating disorders in Brazilian celiac patients. METHODS This cross-sectional study was conducted as online survey including adult celiac patients who agreed to participate and a paired control health group. Questionnaires included questions about socioeconomic data and celiac disease diagnosis, and a validated questionnaire about eating disorders (Eating Attitudes Test-26. RESULTS In total, 741 responses were studied, with 484 from the celiac group and 257 from the control group. No significant difference was observed between the number of individuals at risk of developing eating disorder (p=0.39). Both groups showed a high risk of developing eating disorders (34.2% in the celiac group and 37.7% in the control group). Furthermore, among patients with celiac disease, we found higher scores on the Eating Attitudes Test-26 in those with depression (p=0.0013), those with living difficulty due to the disease (p<0.0001), and those dissatisfied with their weight (p<0.0001). CONCLUSION In the sample analyzed, no greater risk of eating disorders was identified in patients with celiac disease compared with the control group. However, in general, about one-third of the respondents in each group had scores associated with the risk of eating disorders. Among celiac patients, depression, difficulties living with celiac disease, and being unhappy with one's weight were associated with higher risk for eating disorder.

Abstract
With the improved knowledge of gluten-related disorders, especially celiac disease (CD), the market of gluten-free food is growing. However, the current gluten-free diet still presents challenges in terms of nutrition, acceptability, and cost due to the absence of gluten. It is important to note that gluten-related allergies or sensitivities have different underlying causes. And individuals with mild non-celiac gluten disorder symptoms may not necessarily require the same gluten-free treatments. Scientists are actively seeking alternative solutions for these consumers. This review delves into the various strategies employed by researchers for detoxifying gluten or modifying its main protein, gliadin, including genetic treatment, transamidation and deamidation, hydrolysis, and microbial treatments. The mechanisms, constraints of these techniques, their current utilization in food items, as well as their implications for gluten-related disorders, are discussed in detail. Although there is still a gap in the application of these methods as alternative solutions in the real market, the summary provided by our review could be beneficial for peers in enriching their basic ideas and developing more applicable solutions for wheat gluten detoxification.

Abstract
Clinicians are faced with evaluating real and alleged reactions to foods that may be allergic or nonallergic. Pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of various non-IgE-mediated diseases are discussed in this review. These food-related conditions range from mild to severe. Referral for an allergy workup may be pursued despite the lack of IgE-mediated symptoms. Diagnostic testing is available for defined non-IgE-mediated food diseases that are either immunologic or nonimmunologic. These include celiac disease and related disorders, carbohydrate maldigestion, pancreatic insufficiency, and histamine intolerance. In contrast, there is a paucity of definitive studies to prove food intolerance diseases. There are no definitive diagnostic criteria or testing for nonceliac gluten sensitivity. Functional gastrointestinal disorders, such as irritable bowel syndrome, are better stratified diagnostically but still lack reliable testing. Both nonceliac gluten sensitivity and irritable bowel syndrome are linked to dietary triggers including fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides, and polyols. Therefore, dietary alteration alone may be diagnostic and therapeutic when all other conditions are ruled out. These conditions are important considerations when evaluating a patient with history of a food reaction. There is little evidence that foods are causative in other ailments such as acne, migraines, and nasal congestion and hypersecretion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is some evidence of a higher prevalence of coeliac disease (CD) among patients with SLE than in the general population. However, the prevalence estimates vary substantially. OBJECTIVE To investigate the prevalence of CD among patients with SLE through systematic review and meta-analysis. METHODS We performed searches in the databases of Medline, Embase, Cochrane and Web of Science Core Collection between 1 January 1990 and 9 July 2023. A total of 2053 publications were rendered in the searches, of which 68 were reviewed in full text and 14 included in the analyses. Primary analysis estimated the pooled prevalence of biopsy-verified CD in patients with SLE. In the secondary analysis, the prevalence of serological markers indicative of CD was investigated. The quality of studies was appraised using the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Tool. We conducted meta-regression analyses to investigate associations between the prevalence of CD in individuals with SLE and publication year, study population size, CD prevalence in the general population, proportion of females and quality assessment score. RESULTS A total of 14 studies met the inclusion criteria, of which 11 were included in the primary analysis of biopsy-verified CD. Among 1238 patients with SLE, 14 had CD. The weighted pooled prevalence of CD was 0.7% (95% CI 0.0 to 1.8). The weighted pooled prevalence of CD serological markers in 1063 patients with SLE was 3.7% (95% CI 1.4 to 6.7). In meta-regression analyses, no associations between CD prevalence and study characteristics, demographics and quality assessment scores were found. CONCLUSIONS In this meta-analysis, we found a weighted pooled prevalence of biopsy-verified CD in patients with SLE comparable with the prevalence in the general population. Our findings do not support routine screening for CD in patients with SLE. However, individual screening could be considered in cases of clinical suspicion and additional risk factors for CD.

J Clin Med 2024; 13:1045. [PMID: 38398359 PMCID: PMC10889265 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13041045] [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: 01/23/2024] [Revised: 02/05/2024] [Accepted: 02/08/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: Cardiomyopathy in celiac disease or celiac cardiomyopathy (CCM) is a serious and potentially life-threatening disease that can occur in both adults and children. However, data supporting the causal relationship between celiac disease (CD) and cardiomyopathy (CMP) are still inconsistent. The aim of this study was to review and synthesize data from the literature on this topic and potentially reveal a more evidence-based causal relationship. (2) Methods: The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines were used to search Medline, Embase, and Scopus databases from database inception until September 2023. A total of 1187 original articles were identified. (3) Results: We identified 28 CCM patients (19 adult and 9 pediatric) with a mean age of 27.4 ± 18.01 years. Adult patients with CCM were predominantly male (84.2%) while pediatric patients were predominantly female (75%). The most common comorbidities associated with CCM were anemia (75%) and pulmonary hemosiderosis (20%). In 35% of patients, CCM occurred before the diagnosis of CD, while in 48% of patients, CCM and CD were diagnosed at the same time. Diagnosis of CD preceded diagnosis of CCM in only 18% of patients. Diagnosis of CCM is often delayed with an average, from the onset of symptoms to diagnosis, of 16 months. All patients were treated with a gluten-free diet in addition to guideline-directed medical therapy. At 11-month follow-up, cardiovascular improvement was seen in 60.7% of patients. Pediatric mortality was 33.3%, while adult mortality was 5.3%. (4) Conclusions: Clinicians should be aware of the possible association between CD and CMP, and we recommend CD work-up in all patients with CMP who have concomitant anemia. While we identified only 28 cases in the literature, many cases might go unreported due to a lack of awareness regarding CCM. A high degree of clinical suspicion and a prompt diagnosis of CCM are essential to minimizing the risks of morbidity and mortality, as the combination of a gluten-free diet and guideline-directed medical therapy can improve clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Introduction. Recently, an increased risk of celiac disease or eosinophilic esophagitis has been postulated among patients with either of these disorders, prompting some to suggest a common underlying mechanism, whereas others maintain that their co-existence is coincidental. Methods. We compared clinical and pathological features of 29 patients meeting criteria for both celiac disease and eosinophilic esophagitis to 26 celiac disease and 26 eosinophilic esophagitis controls to determine whether any distinguished study patients from controls. Results. Eight (28%) study patients presented with symptoms of both celiac disease and eosinophilic esophagitis, whereas 14 (48%) had celiac disease symptoms only and 5 had (17%) esophageal symptoms only. Study patients had similar autoimmune and atopic conditions seen in both control groups. Histological severity of disease, including Marsh II-III duodenal histology (study specimens: 87%; controls: 89%), mean peak esophageal eosinophil counts (study specimens: 55/400x field; controls: 80/400X field, P = .1), and presence of eosinophil microabscesses, scale crust, and subepithelial fibrosis were also similar to controls. Gluten-free diet resolved celiac disease-related symptoms (19 of 20, 95%) and histology (10 of 12, 83%), but not esophageal symptoms or eosinophilia in most study patients. Conclusion. Patients with concomitant celiac disease and eosinophilic esophagitis lack distinguishing features compared to controls with celiac disease or eosinophilic esophagitis alone. The occurrence of both disorders is likely coincidental in most cases.

Abstract
Celiac disease (CD) is an immune-mediated enteropathy, caused by hypersensitivity to gluten in genetically predisposed individuals. The worldwide prevalence of CD has been estimated to be approximately 1%. Most guidelines for diagnosis of CD rely on a sequential approach, with serological testing of antibodies against tissue transglutaminase (tTG) as a first-line test, followed by a duodenal biopsy. However, GI biopsy is an invasive procedure with various complications. Hence, this study was planned to ascertain whether it could be possible to have a non-biopsy approach, using only serological markers to establish the diagnosis of CD in adults. MATERIAL AND METHODS It was a retrospective analysis of medical records of all biopsy-diagnosed CD patients with available anti-tTGA antibodies reports from 2019 to 2023. The patients were divided into three groups based on Marsh grading and anti-tTGA antibody levels were compared using various statistical tests. RESULTS A total of 94 biopsy-diagnosed symptomatic CD patients with anti-tTGA antibody reports available formed the study group. Of these, 54 had biopsy findings consistent with Marsh 3 lesion, three had Marsh 2 lesion, and 37 had Marsh 1 lesion. A significant correlation existed between Marsh grading 3 lesion and anti-tTGA antibody levels above the upper limit of normal (ULN) x 10. CONCLUSION Serum levels of anti-tTGA antibodies greater than 10 x ULN can be used to identify symptomatic patients with Marsh grade 3 CD lesions.

Abstract
This article is part of an American Board of Pediatrics Foundation-sponsored effort to analyze and forecast the pediatric subspecialty workforce between 2020 and 2040. Herein, an overview of the current pediatric gastroenterology workforce is provided, including demographics, work characteristics, and geographic distribution of practitioners. Brief context is provided on the changing nature of current practice models and the increasing prevalence of some commonly seen disorders. On the basis of a rigorous microsimulation workforce projection model, projected changes from 2020 to 2040 in the number of pediatric gastroenterologists and clinical workforce equivalents in the United States are presented. The article closes with a brief discussion of training, clinical practice, policy, and future workforce research implications of the data presented. This data-driven analysis suggests that the field of pediatric gastroenterology will continue to grow in scope and complexity, propelled by scientific advances and the increasing prevalence of many disorders relevant to the discipline. The workforce is projected to double by 2040, a growth rate faster than most other pediatric subspecialties. Disparities in care related to geography, race, and ethnicity are among the most significant challenges for the years ahead. Changes to training and education, incentives to meet the needs of underserved populations, and new multidisciplinary models for health care delivery will be necessary to optimally meet the volume, diversity, and complexity of children with gastroenterological diseases in the years ahead.

Abstract
The only treatment for celiac disease (CD) is a strict and lifelong gluten-free diet (GFD), which must be safe and nutritionally balanced. Avoiding gluten brings difficulties with following the diet and can affect the social life of people with CD. The Zeliakide Project is a nutrition education program aimed at increasing the knowledge of the general population about healthy diets, CD and GFD, and, therefore, to improve the social inclusion and quality of life of people with CD. It is a one-month intervention program, two-armed cluster, non-randomised and controlled trial, conducted among 10-12-year-old children. Pre- and post-intervention evaluation and 1 month follow-up will be carried out to assess the effectiveness of the program. It is based on competencies and their respective learning outcomes. The teaching methodology chosen is a STEAM methodology: inquiry-based learning (IBL). A teaching unit has been created to develop the project, which, in the future, will be useful for the self-application of the program. This study will provide a valid and useful tool to achieve changes in the diet at the school level and will help to promote the social inclusion of people with CD. Moreover, it will enforce the STEAM competences of children.

Abstract
Despite numerous advancements in gluten detection, a substantial need remains for innovative, cost-effective, in situ methods that can be employed without complex analytical instruments. Addressing this demand, this study introduces a pioneering label-free colorimetric biosensor for the in situ detection of gliadin, a major component of gluten, which is a prevalent trigger of food allergies. Our novel approach employs the strategic coating of gold nanoparticles (AuNP) with gliadin-specific aptamers. In the absence of gliadin, these aptamers stably disperse AuNP, preventing their aggregation. However, upon the introduction of gliadin and in the presence of sodium chloride, AuNP aggregate, yielding a measurable colorimetric signal that facilitates the precise quantification of gliadin. Under rigorously optimized conditions, this AuNP/aptamer-based colorimetric biosensor demonstrated exceptional sensitivity and selectivity, with a detection limit of 32.1 ng mL-1 and a linear response range of 0-300 ng mL-1. Critically, the sensor maintained reliable performance when applied to real-world food samples, including gluten-free bread, cookies, and pasta. Due to its simplicity, selectivity, speed, and cost-effectiveness, this assay represents a significant advancement over current gluten detection methods. Moreover, the developed AuNP/aptamer-based colorimetric biosensor design holds promising potential for adaptation to detect other food allergens or protein toxins through selective aptamer modifications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metabolic bone disease is a common manifestation of celiac disease (CD). We aimed to assess fracture risk among children and adolescents with CD compared with a matched group. METHODS This registry-based cohort study included 2372 children with CD who were matched 1:5 to 11,860 children without CD. Demographic and clinical data were obtained from the electronic database of Meuhedet, a health maintenance organization. Fracture events at ages 1-18 years were identified by coded diagnoses. RESULTS The overall fracture incidence rate was 256 per 10,000 patient-years (PY) in the CD group and 165 per 10,000 PY in the comparison group (p < 0.001). The hazard ratio (HR) to have a fracture was 1.57 (95% CI 1.43-1.73, p < 0.001) for the CD group compared to the matched group. The HR for multiple fractures was 1.67 (95% CI 1.38-2.01, p < 0.001). Analysis of the pre- and post-diagnosis periods separately showed that the HR for fractures in the pre-diagnosis period was 1.64 (95% CI 1.42-1.88, p < 0.001) for the CD group compared to the matched group, and 1.52 (95% CI 1.26-1.71, p < 0.001) in the period from diagnosis to the end of the follow-up period. CONCLUSIONS Children with CD had increased fracture risk both preceding and following the diagnosis of CD. IMPACT One manifestation of celiac disease (CD) is metabolic bone disease, including osteoporosis and impaired bone mineralization. We found increased fracture risk among children with CD, both preceding the CD diagnosis and during the years following the diagnosis. Recognition of the high risk of fractures in this population may help promote prevention. Further studies are needed to evaluate changes in bone quantity and quality after initiation of a gluten-free diet, and to identify those at risk for persistent metabolic bone disease.

BACKGROUND Higher gluten intake in childhood is associated with increased incidence of celiac disease autoimmunity (CDA) and celiac disease. It remains to be studied whether different dietary patterns independent of gluten intake contribute to the incidence. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to explore associations of dietary patterns by age 2 y with risk of CDA and celiac disease in genetically susceptible children. METHODS Data was used from 6726 participants at genetic risk of type 1 diabetes and celiac disease enrolled in the observational cohort, The Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in the Young (TEDDY) study. Children were annually screened for tissue transglutaminase autoantibodies (tTGAs) from age 2 y. Principal component analysis extracted dietary patterns, based on intake of 27 food groups assessed by 3-d food records at age 9 to 24 mo. The primary outcome was CDA (i.e., persistently tTGA-positive in at least 2 consecutive samples), and the secondary outcome was celiac disease. During follow-up to mean age 11.0 (standard deviation 3.6) y, 1296 (19.3%) children developed CDA, and 529 (7.9%) were diagnosed with celiac disease. Associations of adherence to dietary patterns (per 5-unit increase) with the study outcomes were estimated by Cox regression models adjusted for risk factors including gluten intake. RESULTS At age 9 mo, a dietary pattern higher in the food groups vegetable fats and milk was associated with reduced risk of CDA (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.88; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.79, 0.98; P = 0.02). At 24 mo, a dietary pattern higher in the food groups wheat, vegetable fats, and juices, and lower in milk, meat, and oats at age 24 mo was associated with increased risk of CDA (HR: 1.18; 95% CI: 1.05, 1.33; P < 0.001) and celiac disease (HR: 1.24; 95% CI: 1.03, 1.50; P = 0.03). CONCLUSIONS Dietary patterns in early childhood are associated with risk of CDA and celiac disease in genetically predisposed children, independent of gluten intake.

Abstract
SCOPE Gluten, the primary network builder of wheat dough, is responsible for celiac disease or wheat allergy. Transamidation of gluten under reduction conditions has been shown to reduce the potential toxicity of celiac disease, but its application in food preparation has not been extensively studied. This work investigates the use of transamidation in food preparation to address this gap in knowledge. METHODS AND RESULTS This study investigates the effects of transamidation on the toxicity of commercial wheat flour and the apparent structure, digestive level, and rheological characteristics of resultant dough and steamed bread, as a typical food model. The results show that transamidation starts at the kneading stage, as evaluated by using R5 enzyme-linked immunoassay and rat basophils. The potential toxicity of celiac disease is reduced by about 83% when 1% microbial transglutaminase (mTG), 2% l-lysine, and 1% reduced glutathione (GSH) are added, while retaining the original physical and rheological properties of wheat flour. The additional of reduced GSH also improves the in vitro protein digestibility. CONCLUSIONS Although it cannot be a celiac disease treatment directly, this study suggests that transamidation can serve as an alternative method for reducing the gluten toxicity of wheat flour-based food products.

Abstract
Celiac disease (CeD) is a widespread, gluten-induced, autoimmune disorder that lacks any medicinal therapy. Towards the goal of developing non-dietary treatments for CeD, research has focused on elucidating its molecular and cellular etiology. A model of pathogenesis has emerged centered on interactions between three molecular families: specific class II MHC proteins on antigen-presenting cells (APCs), deamidated gluten-derived peptides, and T cell receptors (TCRs) on inflammatory CD4+ T cells. Growing evidence suggests that this pathogenic axis can be pharmacologically targeted to protect patients from some of the adverse effects of dietary gluten. Further studies have revealed the existence of additional host and environmental contributors to disease initiation and tissue damage. This review summarizes our current understanding of CeD pathogenesis and how it is being harnessed for therapeutic design and development.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is 40 years since the discovery of Helicobacter pylori infection. Over that time major changes have occurred in esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) findings. The aim of this review is to describe these changes, and the important role H. pylori infection has played in their evolution. METHODS References were identified through searches of PubMed using the search terms-endoscopy time trends, peptic ulcer disease, gastroesophageal reflux disease, upper gastrointestinal cancer, gastric polyps, H. pylori, eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders, and celiac disease, from 1970 through December 2021. RESULTS The prevalence of H. pylori infection has fallen and consequently, H. pylori-positive peptic ulcer disease has become rare. Gastroesophageal reflux disease is now the commonest disorder diagnosed at EGD, and Barrett's esophagus has increased in parallel. Cancer of the distal stomach has fallen while esophageal adenocarcinoma and reflux-related cardia cancer have risen. Gastric polyps have changed from hyperplastic and adenomas to sporadic fundic gland polyps. Antimicrobial resistance has made H. pylori infection more difficult to eradicate. Eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders, particularly eosinophilic esophagitis, have emerged as important new allergic disorders. Celiac disease has changed and increased. CONCLUSIONS EGD findings appear to have changed from features suggesting a H. pylori-positive "phenotype" 40 years ago to a H. pylori-negative "phenotype" today. These changes have major implications for the management of gastrointestinal disorders.

Abstract
A large number of patients with celiac disease (CD) remain undiagnosed because they do not fulfill the criteria for entry into the conventional diagnostic workflow. This study evaluated the clinical utility of anti-tissue transglutaminase IgA antibody lateral flow immunoassays (anti-tTG-IgA LFIA) in the undiagnosed-CD-based pediatric population and the impact of a gluten-free diet (GFD) on screening-detected CD. A total of 576 volunteers were tested for anti-tTG-IgA. Gluten consumption habits, CD related symptoms, and risk factors for CD development were evaluated. Volunteers testing positive for anti-tTG-IgA were referred to the conventional CD diagnostic workflow, and the impact of the GFD on health-related quality of life (HR-QoL) was measured. Among them, 13 had a positive anti-tTG-IgA LFIA test result: 11 had confirmed CD (1.91%), one refused confirmatory tests, and another is undergoing diagnosis. Regarding the CD prevalence, no significant differences were observed among risk (1.89%) and symptomatic (2.65%) groups and the entire tested population (1.55%). Rapid anti-tTG-IgA LFIAs could be of clinical utility in primary care for the early identification of children with CD unidentified by the conventional diagnostic workflow. It could potentially reduce the costs of undiagnosed CD, avoiding unnecessary referrals to gastroenterologists, reducing diagnosis delays and long-term problems, and improving patients' HR-QoL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Small bowel disorders present a diagnostic challenge due to the limited accessibility of the small intestine. Accurate diagnosis is made with the aid of specific procedures, like capsule endoscopy or double-ballon enteroscopy, but they are not usually solicited and not widely accessible. This study aims to assess and compare the diagnostic effectiveness of enteroscopy and video capsule endoscopy (VCE) when combined with artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms for the automatic detection of small bowel diseases. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed an extensive literature search for relevant studies about AI applications capable of identifying small bowel disorders using enteroscopy and VCE, published between 2012 and 2023, employing PubMed, Cochrane Library, Google Scholar, Embase, Scopus, and ClinicalTrials.gov databases. RESULTS Our investigation discovered a total of 27 publications, out of which 21 studies assessed the application of VCE, while the remaining 6 articles analyzed the enteroscopy procedure. The included studies portrayed that both investigations, enhanced by AI, exhibited a high level of diagnostic accuracy. Enteroscopy demonstrated superior diagnostic capability, providing precise identification of small bowel pathologies with the added advantage of enabling immediate therapeutic intervention. The choice between these modalities should be guided by clinical context, patient preference, and resource availability. Studies with larger sample sizes and prospective designs are warranted to validate these results and optimize the integration of AI in small bowel diagnostics. CONCLUSIONS The current analysis demonstrates that both enteroscopy and VCE with AI augmentation exhibit comparable diagnostic performance for the automatic detection of small bowel disorders.

Abstract
Celiac disease (CeD) is an autoimmune disorder affecting the small intestine with gluten as disease trigger. Infections including Influenza A, increase the CeD risk. While gluten-specific CD4+ T-cells, recognizing HLA-DQ2/DQ8 presented gluten-peptides, initiate and sustain the celiac immune response, CD8+ α/β intraepithelial T-cells elicit mucosal damage. Here, we subjected TCRs from a cohort of 56 CeD patients and 22 controls to an analysis employing 749 published CeD-related TCRβ-rearrangements derived from gluten-specific CD4+ T-cells and gluten-triggered peripheral blood CD8+ T-cells. We show, that in addition to TCRs from gluten-specific CD4+ T-cells, TCRs of gluten-triggered CD8+ T-cells are significantly enriched in CeD duodenal tissue samples. TCRβ-rearrangements of gluten-triggered CD8+ T-cells were even more expanded in patients than TCRs from gluten-specific CD4+ T-cells (p < 0.0002) and highest in refractory CeD. Sequence alignments with TCR-antigen databases suggest that a subgroup of these most likely indirectly gluten-triggered TCRs recognize microbial, viral, and autoantigens.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) is defined as a medical condition with chronic widespread musculoskeletal pain accompanied by mood disorders, fatigue and sleep disturbances. Treatment of this condition can often be challenging. As nutrition in general and nutritional interventions in the context of illness management become more and more important, current research also focuses on the relevance of diets for FMS, including gluten as field of interest. To date, there is no clear evidence that a gluten-free diet or other nutritional interventions are significantly important for the reduction of pain in the context of FMS. Only a very few studies show that FMS patients respond to a gluten-free diet and that cytokine production (also in FMS) can be reduced through the change. However, these studies have not investigated whether and to what extent cognitive factors, such as the expectation of symptom reduction triggered by diet, play a role. Recent research shows that treatment expectation plays an important role in the course of the disease and in the effectiveness of treatment approaches. For example, there are promising pain treatment options using open-label placebos (OLPs), which show that expectation alone, rather than the pharmacological substance of medication, can reduce pain experience. In our study protocol, we hypothesise that treatment expectation can be positively influenced by the given information regarding the placebos, resulting in improved treatment outcomes for pain and indigestions. METHODS AND ANALYSIS In this trial, patients with FMS will undergo a food challenge and take an OLP (patients will be informed about the placebo), followed by a 3-week OLP treatment. The subjects will be randomised into four groups: (a) gluten-free porridge+neutral OLP instructions; (b) gluten-free porridge+positive OLP instructions; (c) gluten-containing porridge+neutral OLP instructions and (d) gluten-containing porridge+positive OLP instructions. Patients will be recruited via different institutions and support groups in Hamburg. The inclusion criteria are (a) diagnosed FMS, (b) absence of wheat allergy, coeliac disease or pain-related red flags and (c) being a minimum age of 18 years. The study requires 100 subjects to assess the primary outcomes: pain intensity and occurence of indigestion. Secondary outcomes are functional capacity, treatment expectation, and different pain-related and inflammation-related blood parameters. The measure time points will be before and after the food challenge and before and after the 3-week OLP treatment. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION Ethical approval was obtained in October 2021 from the Hamburg Medical Ethics Council. The results of the study will be disseminated through publications, presentations and conference meetings. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER German Clinical Trials Register (DRKS; DRKS00027130).

Abstract
Celiac disease is a frequent auto-immune disease characterized by villous atrophy related to gluten intake in patients with genetic susceptiblity. Patients do not present symptoms in the majority of cases. Presence of the disease must be investigated in case of digestive symptoms or presence of auto-immune disease. Diagnosis is based on anti-transglutaminase antibody and dudodenal biospies. The only available treatment is gluten-free diet. Associated auto-immune diseases must be investigated, especially thyroiditis. Complications related to nutritional deficiency must be accounted for also.

Abstract
Celiac disease is a global disease requiring genetic susceptibility and gluten exposure to trigger immune-mediated enteropathy. The effect of the degree of gluten-containing grain availability on celiac disease prevalence is unknown. Our objective was to compare country-based gluten availability to celiac prevalence using a systematic literature review. We searched MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane, and Scopus until May 2021. We included population-based serum screening with confirmatory testing (second serological study or small intestine biopsy) and excluded specific, high-risk, or referral populations. We determined country-specific gluten availability using the United Nations food balance for wheat, barley, and rye. Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) frequencies were obtained from allelefrequencies.net. The primary outcome was association between gluten-containing grain availability and celiac disease prevalence. Generalized linear mixed models method with Poisson's link was used for analysis. We identified 5641 articles and included 120 studies on 427 146 subjects from 41 countries. Celiac disease prevalence was 0-3.1%, median 0.75% (interquartile range 0.35, 1.22). Median wheat supply was 246 g/capita/day (interquartile range 214.8, 360.7). The risk ratio (RR) for wheat availability on celiac disease was 1.002 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.0001, 1.004, P = 0.036). A protective association was seen with barley, RR 0.973 (95% CI: 0.956, 0.99, P = 0.003), and rye, RR 0.989 (95% CI: 0.982, 0.997, P = 0.006). The RR for gross domestic product on celiac disease prevalence was 1.009 (95% CI: 1.005, 1.014, P < 0.001). The RR for HLA-DQ2 was 0.982 (95% CI: 0.979, 0.986, P < 0.001), and that for HLA-DQ8 was 0.957 (95% CI: 0.950, 0.964, P < 0.001). In this geo-epidemiologic study, gluten-containing grain availability showed mixed associations with celiac disease prevalence.

Abstract
GOALS We aim to describe the weight loss outcomes of patients with celiac disease (CeD) taking antiobesity medications (AOMs) and compare it with the weight loss outcomes of patients without CeD taking AOMs. BACKGROUND Increasing rates of obesity and obesity-associated comorbidities have been previously reported in patients with CeD on a gluten-free diet. The effectiveness of AOMs in this population has not been previously described. METHODS In our retrospective cohort study, we matched 39 patients with treated CeD to 78 patients without CeD based on sex and AOM. We assessed the weight loss outcomes at 3, 6, and 12 months after starting the AOM in both cohorts and analyzed if there was a differential response when comparing by type of AOM [injectable glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists vs. oral non-GLP-1 AOMs]. RESULTS Both cohorts had similar baseline demographic and anthropometric characteristics. At 12 months, the CeD cohort had a nonsignificantly inferior total body weight loss percentage compared with the cohort without CeD (6.5% vs. 9.5%, P=0.13). The CeD cohort had a similar proportion of patients achieving a total body weight loss percentage of ≥5% than the cohort without CeD (72.7% vs. 72.1%, P=1.00). No significant difference was observed when comparing the weight loss outcomes of injectables (GLP-1 receptor agonists) to oral AOMs. The proportion of patients reporting side effects was similar for both groups, regardless of the type of AOM. CONCLUSION Patients with CeD taking AOMs had similar weight loss outcomes to patients without CeD. Hence, AOMs can be a safe and effective therapy for weight management in patients with CeD.

Abstract
The range of gluten-free food products available to consumers is steadily expanding. In recent years, recalls of food products have highlighted the importance of accurate labeling of food products for the presence of wheat, other gluten-containing cereals, or gluten itself as refined ingredient. The purpose of this study was to gain more insights into recent food recalls related to undeclared gluten/wheat contamination and consumer experiences with these recalls. Recalls of products triggered by gluten contamination are relatively scarce and are not often triggered by a consumer complaint. The impact of these recalls on consumer trust was evaluated through an online survey that was distributed among supporters of Celiac Canada (CCA) and covered (i) strategies to adhere to a gluten-free diet, (ii) experiences with gluten-free recalls and their impact on consumer trust, and (iii) demographic information. Consumer concern regarding gluten-free product recalls is significant, but the concern regarding recalls is not heightened after experiencing a recall. Companies pursuing transparency in the process, identification of the source of contamination, and mitigation strategies going forward are likely to retain consumer trust in their product and brand. Based on the survey results, further efforts focusing on consumer education regarding interpreting nutrient labels, identifying sources of information on product recalls, and understanding procedures to follow upon suspected gluten contamination of a gluten-free product are recommended.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Data on COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness among patients with coeliac disease are currently lacking because patients with immune conditions were excluded from clinical trials. We used our coeliac disease autoimmunity (CDA) cohort to explore the effectiveness of the BNT162b2 mRNA COVID-19 vaccine in preventing SARS-CoV-2 infection among patients with CDA. METHODS This retrospective cohort study included patients with positive autoantibodies against tissue transglutaminase (tTG-IgA). In the primary analysis, the cohort included CDA patients who received two vaccine doses against COVID-19 and matched patients in a 1:3 ratio. Patients were divided into subgroups based on their positive tTG-IgA level at diagnosis and their current serology status. RESULTS The cohort included 5381 vaccinated patients with CDA and 14,939 matched vaccinated patients. The risk for breakthrough SARS-CoV-2 infection evaluated with Kaplan-Meier survival analysis via log-rank tests was similar between groups (p = 0.71). In a Cox regression survival analysis, the hazard ratio for breakthrough infection among patients with CDA compared to matched patients was 0.91 (95% confidence interval = 0.77-1.09). CONCLUSIONS COVID-19 vaccination is effective in patients with coeliac disease autoimmunity. Vaccine effectiveness was comparable to the reference population.

Abstract
Background and Objectives. Coeliac disease is an autoimmune disorder provoked by a dietary group of proteins called gluten in genetically predisposed individuals. Over the past several decades, the prevalence of coeliac disease has been steadily growing and it is now recognized to be occurring worldwide. The prevalence varies greatly between ethnic, racial groups and regionally. Such variability makes local epidemiological studies important for spreading awareness and setting a threshold for suspicion of coeliac disease. We explored the potential application of a quick point-of-care test for the purpose of detecting a presence of IgA class TG2 antibodies for coeliac disease and screening in a Lithuanian pediatric population. Previously, there were no data regarding coeliac disease prevalence in Lithuania. Materials and Methods. Overall, we included 1458 children 11-13 years of age from several Lithuanian schools selected randomly in this study. Utilizing one point-of-care test using a single blood sample taken from a fingertip, we identified the existence of IgA class TG2 antibodies. Only children whose parents gave consent were enrolled in the study. Those with positive IgA class TG2-ab were directed to a tertiary hospital for additional clinical assessment and confirmation of suspected coeliac disease. Results. A total of two (0.14%) of the 1458 enrolled children were detected with the presence of TG2 antibodies and the coeliac disease diagnosis was further confirmed with histological examination of duodenal biopsy samples. Additionally, we checked that patients had not previously reported any clinical symptoms and signs that could suggest coeliac disease or any other disease of the gastrointestinal tract. Conclusions. The detected prevalence of coeliac disease in the Lithuanian pediatric population is 1:729. The rapid finger prick test for the presence of IgA class TG2 antibodies is a reasonable and accurate method to screen for celiac disease in children.

Abstract
BACKGROUND While there is higher prevalence of autoimmune, cholestatic and fatty liver disease in celiac disease (CeD), most data is from small-scale studies. We evaluated the prevalence and risk factors of the same using large cohort data. METHODS A population-based cross-sectional study was conducted using Explorys, a multi-institutional database. Prevalence and risk factors of autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in CeD were assessed. RESULTS Out of 70 352 325 subjects, 136 735 had CeD (0.19%). The prevalence of AIH (0.32%), PBC (0.15%), PSC (0.004%) and NAFLD (0.7%) were high in CeD. After adjusting for age, gender, Caucasian race and anti-tissue transglutaminase antibody (anti-TTG), CeD subjects had higher odds of AIH [adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 7.06, 95% confidence interval (CI) 6.32-7.89] and PBC (aOR 4.16, 95% CI 3.46-5.0). Even after adjusting for CeD, anti-TTG positivity concurred with higher odds of AIH (aOR 4.79, 95% CI 3.88-5.92) and PBC (aOR 9.22, 95% CI 7.03-12.1). After adjusting for age, gender, Caucasian race, diabetes mellitus (DM), obesity, hypothyroidism and metabolic syndrome, there was higher prevalence of NAFLD in CeD, with the aOR in the presence of DM type 1 being 2.1 (95% CI 1.96-2.25), and in the presence of DM type 2 being 2.92 (95% CI 2.72-3.14). CONCLUSION Subjects with CeD are more likely to have AIH, PBC, PSC and NAFLD. AIH and PBC have higher odds in the presence of anti-TTG. The odds of NAFLD in CeD are high regardless of type of DM.

Abstract
The treatment for celiac disease (CD) involves a strict gluten-free diet, which can be challenging and lead to questions for patients. Pinpointing these uncertainties can enable the creation of efficient educational resources. In this study, a questionnaire was specifically designed to gain insights into the knowledge, concerns, and needs of individuals with CD and their supporters. The questionnaire was distributed through the Instagram social network and received adequate responses from 300 participants, 258 (86%) being female and 152 (50.7%) falling in the age range of 25-44 years. The concerns of individuals with celiac disease and celiac supporters were rated on a 1-4 scale, with a mean score of 3.5 indicating significant concern. A total of 255 (85%) of all participants expressed that their principal concern was the social limitations they faced, such as difficulties in eating out and sharing food with others. Every participant evaluated their overall disease knowledge, averaging at 2.92 out of 4, indicating a reasonable level of awareness. When asked if they believed that improving general knowledge about CD in the general population would enhance their quality of life, the vast majority responded affirmatively. This finding underscores the importance of not only educating individuals with CD but also reaching out to the wider population, especially those who have a direct impact on the daily lives of individuals with CD, such as family members, friends, and food service providers.

Abstract
Diet is an important determinant of health and consequently is often implicated in the development of disease, particularly gastrointestinal (GI) diseases, given the high prevalence of meal-related symptoms. The mechanisms underlying diet-driven pathophysiology are not well understood, but recent studies suggest that gut microbiota may mediate the effect of diet on GI physiology. In this review, we focus primarily on two distinct GI diseases where the role of diet has been best studied: irritable bowel syndrome and inflammatory bowel disease. We discuss how the concurrent and sequential utilization of dietary nutrients by the host and gut microbiota determines the eventual bioactive metabolite profiles in the gut and the biological effect of these metabolites on GI physiology. We highlight several concepts that can be gleaned from these findings, such as how distinct effects of an individual metabolite can influence diverse GI diseases, the effect of similar dietary interventions on multiple disease states, and the need for extensive phenotyping and data collection to help make personalized diet recommendations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS Celiac disease (CD) is a T-cell-mediated gluten sensitivity that results in villous atrophy in the small intestine, leading to chronic malabsorption. Patients with celiac disease are prone to malnutrition. We assessed the impact of malnutrition on in-hospital outcomes in patients with CD. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with a primary discharge diagnosis of CD between January 2016 and December 2019 were included in the National Inpatient Sample Database. Data were collected on patient demographics, hospital characteristics, the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), and concomitant comorbidities. The association between malnutrition and outcomes, including mortality, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), sepsis, acute kidney injury (AKI), length of stay (LOS), and total hospitalization charges (THC), was analyzed using the multivariate regression model. RESULTS A total of 187310 patients with CD were included in the analysis. Patients with CD and malnutrition had a higher risk of mortality (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 2.08; p<0.001), AKI (aOR=1.18, p=0.003), and DVT (aOR=1.53; p<0.001) compared to patients with CD without malnutrition. No significant difference was noted in the rates of sepsis and PE. Patients with malnutrition also had a prolonged LOS (2.89 days; p<0.001) and higher THC ($22252.18; p<0.001) compared to patients without malnutrition. DISCUSSION Patients with CD and malnutrition are at high risk of worse outcomes. Early identification of malnutrition in CD can help prevent morbidity and mortality. Even strict adherence to a gluten-free diet has been associated with malnutrition. Further studies identifying factors associated with malnutrition in CD and the impact of interventions to prevent and treat malnutrition are encouraged.
