Incidence and presentation of reported coeliac disease in Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan

Abstract: The incidence of CD in children and adults has markedly increased. One of the most striking features of our data in adult CD is the increasing frequency of abdominal pain and bloating in the female cohort. Incorporation of antibody testing into clinical guidelines is likely to result in a wider spectrum of individuals with nonspecific gastrointestinal symptoms being investigated and diagnosed with CD in the future.

“…Generally, our results are in accordance with reports from other Western countries reporting doubling rates in the United States, tripling rates in certain age groups in Scandinavia and quadrupling rates in the United Kingdom [21][22][23]. The explanation of the rising incidence is probably caused by a combination of factors.…”

“…4 A recent audit of children (,16 years; n = 69) diagnosed in Wales revealed a rising trend in pediatric CD incidence from a mean of 2.08/100 000 per year from 1981 to 1985 to 6.89/100 000 per year from 2001 to 2005. 5 Similar trends have been observed in Europe and North America over comparable time periods. [6][7][8][9][10] A number of articles also report that a greater proportion of children in more recent years are diagnosed through targeted screening and experience fewer GI symptoms.…”

“…In contrast, there was a marked fall in the incidence of paediatric CD from the 1970s to the 1990s in England, Scotland and Ireland, although not Wales, attributed to changing infant feeding practices. On the other hand, four British studies, two of them consecutive in the same population, showed an increase in the incidence of adult CD from the 1960s to the 2000s . However, there was no change in Denmark from 1976 to 1991 .…”

“…Significant inter‐country differences are apparent. Considering various time periods together, incidence rates for both sexes combined ranged from 0.9 to 12.9/100 000/year for all ages combined, 0–3.7/1000 live births for children and 1.27–39/100 000/year for adults . Again considering various time periods together, prevalence rates for both sexes ranged from 8.1 to 204/100 000 for all ages, 4.7–250/100 000 for children and 45.9–550/100 000 for adults …”
