“…More recently, a large questionnaire study of 5912 Canadian celiac patients has suggested that ''extreme weakness/tiredness'' is reported by patients to improve over a prolonged period on GFD, such that of those on GFD for more than five years 72.4% reported this symptom had recovered. 95 Interpretation of these findings is made more difficult by the fact that data originate from cross-sectional studies, rather than from either randomized controlled trials of the effect of GFD, or cohort studies to permit examination of the alteration in state within individuals after establishment of a diet. It is therefore unwise to conclude too firmly that GFD either does or does not alleviate fatigue in CD from the available evidence.…”

“…In children identified via screening there is increasing evidence that growth and bone quality can be adversely affected (15,19). Because the complaints of celiac disease are so nonspecific, it often takes years before symptomatic patients are diagnosed (20). By then, symptoms and organic complications of celiac disease that has remained untreated for many years, such as pancreatic failure or atrophy of the spleen, are often no longer reversible (20)(21)(22).…”

The 0.9% prevalence of celiac disease in Germany, as determined from a combination of serological findings and clinical histories, is similar to reported prevalences elsewhere in Europe and North America. Pediatricians, primary care physicians, internists, and other specialists should be aware of the broad spectrum of clinical manifestations of this disease. Children who have symptoms suggestive of celiac disease or belong to a group at risk for it should be tested for antibodies against tissue transglutaminase, as should symptomatic adults after the exclusion of other possible causes. It is not yet clear whether asymptomatic adults from high-risk groups should be tested.

“…In this study, the total quality of life score of celiac patients who always followed a gluten-free diet were significantly higher than patients who sometimes followed the diet (Table 3). In a study evaluating the effect of time of adherence to gluten-free diet on health-related quality of life scores, individuals whose compliance to the diet was longer than 5 years have significantly higher quality of life scores than those whose compliance was less than 1 year (Pulido et al, 2013). In this study, the same time criteria had similar effects on total quality of life scores.…”

Objective: This study evaluated the effect of nutrition on health-related quality of life in adult celiac patients.Material-Methods: A total of 103 individuals (26 males and 77 females) diagnosed with celiac disease by a physician, registered in the Ankara Celiac Society, and between 20 and 50 years old were enrolled in the study. Research data was collected using the face-to-face survey method with the “Celiac Disease in Health-Related Quality of Life Survey” to evaluate participants’ quality of life. Patient nutrient intake was determined using the 24-hour dietary recall method.Results: The mean age of the patients was 37.5±8.89 years and the age at diagnosis was 31.0±11.85 years. The body mass index value was 22.7±3.57 kg/m2. When the nutritional status of the participants was evaluated, the energy received from carbohydrates and protein was less, whereas the energy received from fat was more than the general recommendations. When the total quality of life score was evaluated, the average scores of men were higher than women (146.6±17.51 vs. 123.7±24.78). In addition, the total and subscale quality of life scores varied by gender, comorbid conditions, compliance with a gluten-free diet, and the duration of the gluten-free diet.Conclusions: Celiac is a disease that requires a lifelong gluten-free diet. Most celiac patients have nutritional deficiencies and poor quality of life standards. In order to prevent these deficiencies, commercially prepared foods should be enriched, especially in vitamins and minerals. In addition, increasing awareness of celiac disease in society positively affects the quality of life of individuals.
