AI Article Synopsis

  • The incidence of celiac disease, including silent forms, is increasing globally, prompting a review of recent research in the field.
  • New proteomic techniques and an advanced animal model are helping to identify key gliadin epitopes responsible for celiac disease development.
  • Despite progress, many gliadin components are still linked to the disease, and small bowel biopsies continue to be the primary method for diagnosis and treatment monitoring.

Article Abstract

Purpose Of Review: The number of diagnoses of celiac disease, especially "silent" forms continues to rise world-wide. This review aims to summarize critically recent research in celiac disease.

Recent Findings: New proteomic approaches with the development of a possible powerful animal model have potentially furthered the isolation of the epitopes within gliadin, and other related proteins, that are critical for the development of celiac disease.

Summary: The number of potential disease-triggering gliadin components remains large. Small bowel biopsies remain the gold-standard for both diagnosis and monitoring of treatment.

Introduction: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) has been linked to pancreatic diseases, but evidence from population-based studies with liver histology is lacking.

Aims And Methods: In this population-based cohort including all Swedish adults (n = 8563) with biopsy-proven MASLD, we aimed to investigate incidences of pancreatic diseases compared with matched reference individuals from the general population (n = 38,858) and full siblings (n = 6696). Using Cox proportional hazard models, we calculated multivariable adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs) and confidence intervals (CIs).

Background: Celiac disease (CD) is a systemic disorder characterized by an enteropathy of highly variable clinical expression, in which the relationship with oral pathology has not yet been fully elucidated. We aimed to update the current knowledge on oral manifestations in CD, to identify evidence gaps and to point out future research lines.

Material And Methods: PRISMA-ScR guidelines were followed.
