A Dedicated Celiac Disease Program Improves Celiac Quality Care Metrics and Short-Term Outcomes in Real Life.

Background And Aims: Dedicated multidisciplinary programs in gastroenterology are emerging with the goal to improve care. There is little information about the effects of a celiac disease program on disease-related quality care metrics and outcomes. We aimed to compare quality care metrics, symptom resolution, and serological response among patients diagnosed and treated in a celiac disease program with a standard of care cohort.

Peri-Operative Optimization of Patients with Crohn's Disease.

Purpose Of Review: The management of patients with Crohn's disease (CD) undergoing surgery is complex and optimization of modifiable factors perioperatively can improve outcomes. This review focuses on the perioperative management of CD patients undergoing surgery, emphasizing the need for a multi-disciplinary approach.

Recent Findings: Research highlights the benefits of a comprehensive strategy, involving nutritional optimization, psychological assessment, and addressing septic complications before surgery.

Relationship between gluten availability and celiac disease prevalence: A geo-epidemiologic systematic review.

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.
