Meta-Analysis and Systematic Review of HLA DQ2/DQ8 in Adults with Celiac Disease

Sara Aboulaghras et al.

Summary: Although HLA DQ2 and/or DQ8 genes increase the risk of developing celiac disease (CD), other factors such as genetics, the environment, and the immune system also play a role in the genesis of the disease. A comprehensive and meta-analytical study of adult CD patients was conducted to gain insight into the assessment and distribution of HLA class II (HLA-DQ2/DQ8) and explore screening techniques. DQ2/DQ2 homozygotes have the highest risk of developing CD, and DQ2/DQ8 typing is an effective test for differential diagnosis. The inclusion of non-HLA genes in diagnosis is limited due to their low contribution to the heritability of CD.

No-biopsy strategy for coeliac disease is applicable in adult patients: a 'real-world' Scottish experience

Aoisha Hoyle et al.

Summary: This study confirms that a no-biopsy strategy using a TGA-IgA cut-off of >=10x ULN is safe and reliable for diagnosing coeliac disease in adult patients, and no important pathology would be missed.

Multicenter study to compare the diagnostic performance of CLIA vs. FEIA transglutaminase IgA assays for the diagnosis of celiac disease

Daan A. R. Castelijn et al.

Summary: This study compared the diagnostic performance of three tTG-IgA assay methods for the diagnosis of celiac disease. The results showed that the chemiluminescence immunoassays (CLIA) were more sensitive compared to the fluorescence enzyme-linked immunoassay (FEIA). Lowering the cut-off threshold of the FEIA improved its diagnostic accuracy in adult cases. There were also differences in tTG-IgA levels between different age groups of patients.

The debate in the diagnosis of coeliac disease - time to go 'no-biopsy'?

Mohamed G. Shiha et al.

Summary: Recent studies suggest that duodenal biopsies may not be necessary for diagnosing coeliac disease in adults. However, certain patient groups still require duodenal biopsy sampling. If further guidelines adopt this approach, efforts should be made to facilitate communication between primary and secondary care for its appropriate implementation.

Is duodenal biopsy always necessary for the diagnosis of coeliac disease in adult patients with high anti-tissue transglutaminase (TTG) antibody titres?

Junaid Beig et al.

Summary: The study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of using a cut-off value of >= 10 times the upper limit of normal for anti-TTG IgA titres for CD diagnosis in adult patients. Results showed that using anti-TTG IgA titres >= 10x normal value is a reliable predictor of CD in adult patients, suggesting that duodenal biopsy may not be necessary in selected cases.

Govind K. Makharia et al.

Summary: Despite advances in testing, awareness of coeliac disease remains suboptimal. This article summarizes the current knowledge and highlights research opportunities in epidemiology, risk factors, diagnosis and follow-up of coeliac disease. Challenges in diagnosis and management suggest opportunities for future research.

No-biopsy pathway following the interim BSG guidance reliably diagnoses adult coeliac disease

Richard David Johnston et al.

Summary: Recent guidance suggests a no-biopsy protocol for adults with high tTG-IgA titres, but this approach should only be used for selected patients and not all tTG-IgA positive patients.

May Antitransglutaminase Levels Predict Severity of Duodenal Lesions in Adults with Celiac Disease?

Giuseppe Losurdo et al.

Summary: The study suggests that diagnostic criteria for celiac disease and villous atrophy based solely on serological markers are not reliable in adults. While high TGA levels are linked to villous atrophy, the sensitivity and specificity of this relationship are limited in adult patients.

Accuracy of a no-biopsy approach for the diagnosis of coeliac disease across different adult

Hugo A. Penny et al.

Summary: The study aimed to determine the predictive capacity and diagnostic yield of a 10-fold increase in serum IgA antitissue transglutaminase (tTG) antibody levels for detecting small intestinal injury diagnostic of coeliac disease (CD) in adult patients. Results showed that IgA tTG levels of >= 10xULN have a strong predictive value at identifying adults with intestinal changes diagnostic of CD, supporting the use of a no-biopsy approach for the diagnosis of adult CD.
