AI Article Synopsis

  • The study aimed to explore the relationship between celiac disease (CD) and another unspecified condition by comparing how common it was in patients with CD versus those without.
  • Fifteen out of 31 patients with CD were male, with an average age of 33.1 years, while the control group had a higher average age of 44.4 years, and overall prevalence rates were similar between the two groups.
  • Although there was a lower prevalence of the unspecified condition in celiac patients compared to controls, the difference wasn't statistically significant, indicating no clear correlation, but the authors suggest more research is needed.

Article Abstract

Objective: It was aimed to determine if there was a correlation between celiac disease (CD) and by comparing the prevalence of in patients with and without CD.

Materials And Methods: The patients who were diagnosed with CD and tested for and the patients who presented for gastroscopy and tested for were evaluated retrospectively and the prevalence of was compared.

Results: Fifteen (48%) of 31 patients who were diagnosed with CD and tested for were males and had a mean age of 33.1 ± 12.7 years (17-72). In the CD group, was positive in 15 patients (48%), and 592 antrum biopsy that was performed were included as the control group. Of these patients, 299 (50.5%) were males and had a mean age of 44.4 ± 17.05 years (16-96). were positive in 316 patients (53.4%). prevalence was similar in the groups with and without CD (p > 0.5).

Conclusion: Although the prevalence of was lower in celiac patients compared to the control group, the difference was not statistically significant. Although no findings suggesting a correlation between CD and was found, further studies should be conducted.

Following a gluten-free diet (GFD) is known as the main effective therapy available for celiac disease (CD) patients, which in some cases is not enough to heal all patients presentations completely. Accordingly, emerging researchers have focused on finding novel therapeutic/preventive strategies for this disorder. Moreover, previous studies have shown that celiac patients, especially untreated subjects, are at increased risk of developing viral and bacterial infections, which can become a challenge for the clinician.

Identifying which patients should undergo serologic screening for celiac disease (CD) may help diagnose patients who otherwise often experience diagnostic delays or remain undiagnosed. Using anonymized outpatient data from the electronic medical records of Maccabi Healthcare Services, we developed and evaluated five machine learning models to classify patients as at-risk for CD autoimmunity prior to first documented diagnosis or positive serum tissue transglutaminase (tTG-IgA). A train set of highly seropositive (tTG-IgA > 10X ULN) cases (n = 677) with likely CD and controls (n = 176,293) with no evidence of CD autoimmunity was used for model development.

Introduction: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) are used to treat various malignancies. They block the inhibitory signals of tumor cells and enhance the inflammatory cascade, which results in tumor killing. However, this can lead to unchecked inflammation throughout the body, leading to various adverse effects.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in Jordanian children with celiac disease, focusing on factors like gender, dietary adherence, and growth issues.
  • A total of 126 out of 400 registered children participated, revealing that males generally reported poorer HRQoL, especially those with chronic diseases, while females faced specific challenges related to growth issues and dietary non-adherence.
  • The findings underscore the need for improved educational efforts and support for gluten-free diets, indicating that further research is necessary to enhance community-level interventions for affected children.
