Article Synopsis
- This study aimed to summarize data on celiac disease (CD) in high-risk populations in Guangdong Province, China, and to conduct a meta-analysis of its prevalence in both general and high-risk groups.
- A serological survey of 1,390 individuals revealed that only 0.94% tested positive for CD antibodies, while a meta-analysis showed a seroprevalence of 0.27% in the general population and 8.34% in high-risk populations.
- The findings suggest there is a geographic variation in CD prevalence, and the authors recommend early serological screening for high-risk individuals, especially in northern China, to improve diagnosis.
