Detailed Description

Coeliac Disease (CD) is a chronic disease with long-term consequences if untreated . CD has been traditionally associated with autoimmune disorders as type 1 Diabetes . However, recent data suggest association with insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes . In a recent study comparing prevalence of autoimmune markers in type 1 diabetes versus type 2, coeliac disease serologic markers were 5% versus 8.7% respectively . In a study published at Nature communication, a genetic link between Ig A levels, type 2 diabetes, and coeliac disease was found . Gluten, among other factors, is thought to play a proinflammatory role exaggerating the damage to β-cells in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes . Presentation of coeliac disease is very variable, ranging from asymptomatic, gastrointestinal symptoms, atypical symptoms, to malabsorption syndrome. Our interest of the very wide atypical presentations is poorly controlled type 2 diabetes . Moreover, it has been recently suggested that gluten-free diet improves glucose metabolism . Screening and diagnosing coeliac disease remain a highly controversial topic, especially in individuals with atypical or no symptoms. A lifelong gluten avoidance can be only justified by a solid diagnosis, achieved by histopathological diagnosis. Intestinal biopsy is invasive test with not that-accurate results. The new guidelines confirmed the accuracy of the no-biopsy approach, only in case of high-titre positive two antibody tests, as published by the European Society Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (ESPGHN) . However, guidelines intended for adults still insist on biopsy for confirming final diagnosis . The only exception is the interim guidance during Corona Virus -19 ( COVID-19 ) allowing non-biopsy diagnosis with two separate serology tests . However, recent retrospective study confirmed that high titre tTG had more than 95% diagnostic rate, and duodenal biopsy was not needed . For screening, many approaches have been studied, with measuring total immunoglobulin A (IgA) and IgA tissue transglutaminase (tTG) is the obvious first choice. However, for resource-deficient economies, rapid easy cheap point-of-care tests for deamidated gliadin antibodies (DGP) have been suggested .

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Estimated)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
March 15, 2024

Primary Completion (Estimated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
