“…Stojanović et al highlighted importance to include both children and parents in QOL measurements. Researchers also noted similar QOL scores and the differences in the scores of SCARED questionnaire between parents and their children 25 . Although significant associations have been documented between QOL and CD in children and adolescents, the findings are still debated 26 .…”

Background. The purpose was to evaluate the quality of life scores and the adherence of gluten-free diet (GFD) in children with celiac disease (CD). The other objective was to determine the relevance of the maternal emotional status between the psychological adjustments and GFD compliance of the patients with CD. Material and methods. Children’s depression inventory (CDI), Screen for Child Anxiety and Related Disorders (SCARED), Strength and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ), KINDer Lebensqualitätsfragebogen Questionnaire, Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) and Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) were administered to both children with CD healthy controls. Furthmore, the results were compared between the CD patients ant the healthy ones. Results. A total of 47 patients with CD, 33 healthy children and their mothers were enrolled. GFD-compliance rate, which was confirmed by antibody tests, was found to be 41.7 %. The scores of CDI, SCARED, and SDQ were significantly higher in CD patients than the healthy children. Moreover, the total scores of KINDL was significantly lower in CD group. Higher scores of BDI and BAI were found in the CD patients’ mothers than the healthy group. In patients group there were positive-moderate statistically significant correlation detected between score of BDI, BAI of mothers and CDI, SCARED, SDQ scores of children. There were also negative statistically significant correlation between scores of BDI, BAI of mothers and KINDL scores of children. Conclusions. Increased prevalence of psychopathology and reduced quality of life have been clearly demonstrated in children with CD. Worse maternal psychosocial adjustment significantly associated with depressive symptoms in pediatric CD patients.

“…[14][15][16] The parents of children with chronic disease are more seriously impacted by these effects than society in general. Stojanovic et al 17 determined anxiety levels of 34.5% and 23.3%, respectively, in their study of 116 CD cases and parents. Ludvigsson et al 6 reported an 8% higher risk of anxiety and depression in the parents of CD cases compared with a control group.…”

Background Anxiety and caregiver burden increase among caregivers for individuals with chronic disease. The purpose of this study was to compare the anxiety levels and caregiver burden among caregivers for cases with pediatric celiac disease (CD) before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Materials The Zarit Burden Interview (ZBI) and the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) were applied to 29 parents caring for pediatric CD patients in January 2020, when COVID-19 cases had not yet been seen in Turkey. The study was designed prospectively. The scales were also reapplied to the same study group online during the COVID-19 pandemic (May 2020). The results were then compared. Results Parents caring for 29 cases of pediatric CD; 21 mothers (72.4%), six fathers (20.7%), and two aunts (6.9%) took part in the study. Mean ZBI scores before and during the COVID-19 pandemic were 27.51 ± 14.12 (8–73) and 38.68 ± 10.95 (21–57), respectively (p < 0.01). Mean BAI scores before and during the COVID-19 pandemic were 13.27 ± 7.65 (1–27) and 23.48 ± 12.40 (2–48), respectively (p < 0.01). Conclusion Increased anxiety and caregiver burden among caregivers of pediatric CD cases during the COVID-19 pandemic were identified for the first time in the literature in this study.

“…The main way to diagnose CD is enterobiopsy with subsequent pathohistological analysis of the small intestinal mucosa [31]. According to the latest recommendations of the European Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (ESPGHAN) defined in 2010, this procedure is not necessary only in patients with symptoms and/or signs corresponding to CD, but also with present IgA antibodies to tissue transglutaminase (AtTG) above 100 U/ml, positive anti-endomysial antibodies and "celiac HLA" (DQ2 and/or DQ8) [32,33]. Diagnosis of CD could be verified by the clinical recovery and AtTG disappearance after introducing a gluten-free diet [16].…”

“…Because CD is a lifelong disorder, the gluten-free diet is the foundation of successful treatment [1,16,33]. Some additional treatment such as supplementation of iron and folates as well as other vitamins and microelements could be required especially during the initial phase of treatment.…”

Gluten-related disorders are a heterogeneous group of clinical entities caused by intolerance of wheat, rye, and barley flour components. They occur in 3-5% of genetically predisposed persons and based on pathogenic and clinical features are classified into celiac disease, non-celiac gluten sensitivity, and wheat allergy. There are also specific entities such as dermatitis herpetiformis or gluten ataxia, which can occur either within the celiac disease or independently. This article based on the current knowledge shows the basic details of the pathogenesis, clinical expression, diagnosis, and treatment of these disorders.
