These studies suggest that celiac disease is diagnosed through a combination of symptoms, antibodies, HLA genotypes, enteropathy, and response to a gluten-free diet, with a strict lifelong gluten-free diet being the primary treatment, while also indicating that new diagnostic tools, nondietary therapies, and updated guidelines are improving the management of the disease.
Celiac disease (CD) is an autoimmune disorder triggered by dietary gluten in genetically predisposed individuals, affecting the small intestine and presenting with a range of symptoms. The diagnosis and treatment of CD have evolved with advances in medical understanding and technology.
Key Insights on Diagnosis and Treatment of Celiac Disease:
Conclusion:
The diagnosis of celiac disease relies on a combination of serological tests and intestinal biopsies, with consideration of genetic predisposition. Treatment is primarily through a gluten-free diet, although this approach can be difficult for patients to maintain and is not always completely effective. There is an ongoing need for improved diagnostic methods and alternative treatments to address the challenges faced by patients with celiac disease.
