A group of international researchers has come up with a five-point scoring system for those with celiac disease to determine the risk of having persistent intestinal damage.
Results of research funded by Beyond Celiac point to a more precise way that gluten sets off damage to the intestine in those who have celiac disease and could help in the development of innovative approaches to finding a treatment.
Even celiac disease patients who were following a gluten-free diet and felt well were still unintentionally consuming some amount of gluten that was detected in stool tests, according to preliminary results of a study recently presented as a poster at Digestive Disease Week (DDW).
Two separate studies related to race and potential healthcare disparities in celiac disease were presented recently as posters at Digestive Disease Week (DDW). One investigated celiac disease associated genes and the other the frequency of celiac disease testing in Black people.
