Mass Screening for the Early Detection of Patients With Celiac Disease.
The use of a home rapid test for the detection of both gluten immunogenic peptides (GIP) in urine and immunoglobulin A (IgA) anti tissue transglutaminase (anti-tTG) antibodies in blood may contribute to the early detection of volunteers who suffer celiac disease (CD), a highly under-diagnosed disorder. Patients with positive results could inform their doctors in order to accelerate the diagnosis, contribute to symptoms control and improve their quality of life. This observational, cross-sectional study with no interventions applied in subjects consists on a single group of volunteers between 2 and 18 years old. They will be given...

Omega-3 Fatty Acid Supplementation and Tear Film Quality in Celiac Patients
The study aims to determine the effectiveness on the tear film quality and symptoms related with dry eye disease in patients with celiac disease.

Pathogenic Study of Adult Immune Enteropathies
The study focuses the mechanisms underlying the loss of intestinal homeostasis in celiac disease, refractory celiac disease and other immune diseases such as monogenic enteropathy, inflammatory bowel diseases or drug induced intestinal diseases. Mechanisms of transformation of lymphocytes leading to onset of lymphomatous complications of immune enteropathies will be investigated. Mechanisms of loss of hepatic lymphocytic homeostasis will also be assessed in liver associated diseases.

Pilot Study for the Evaluation of Food Choices in Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (MICI2021)
This project is a pilot study exploring the effects of dietary choices and quantitative digestion of gluten ingested by individuals with IBD compared to a control population. The aim of the study is to evaluate for the first time in an Italian population of subjects with IBD the presence of a diet based on GFD (gluten free diet).

Prevention av Autoimmunitet Med Laktobaciller
The incidence of autoimmune diseases (celiac disease, type 1 diabetes, thyroid disease) have increased over the past 30 years. Although most autoimmune diseases have a strong link to different risk genes, the rapid increase is thought to be due to changes in environmental factors. There is currently no cure for autoimmune diseases, but the treatment is lifelong and either involves suppressing the inflammation and / or substituting the organs that are affected to maintain vital functions. Being able to predict who is affected and identifying factors that trigger autoimmunity is necessary for developing new treatment methods that ...

Prevention of Celiac Disease in Skåne
This study aims to investigate the impact on being on a gluten free diet the first three years of life compared to a daily intake of a probiotic supplementation or placebo on the risk of developing celiac disease autoimmunity or celiac disease in genetically susceptible children. Study participants will be randomly allocated to one of the three study groups before the age of 4 months and will remain in that group with the corresponding intervention during the three first years of life. Regular visits to a study nurse and contact with study dietician will be scheduled. The dietician will support the families in keeping the...

Probiotic Blend for Celiac Disease
The objective of the study is to develop a probiotic product (B. longum CCT 1934; B. lactis CCT 7858; L. rhamnosus CCT 7863; S. thermophilus ATCC 19258) to reduce the symptoms caused by celiac disease and concomitantly improve the quality of life of patients. To achieve the objective, 118 volunteers of both sexes will be included, randomly distributed into two groups: Test group (n=59): Volunteers supplemented with the probiotic product (Bifidobacterium longum CCT 1934; Bifidobacterium lactis CCT 7858; Lactobacillus rhamnosus CCT 7863 ; Streptococcus thermophilus ATCC 19258) Final concentration: 1 x 1010 CFU/ day) and Placebo group...

Rapid Technique for the Detection of Intestinal Anti-transglutaminase Antibodies
Intestinal Celiac Disease (CD)-antibodies have been described as the best marker to reveal progression toward villous atrophy and could become the diagnostic marker to make prompt diagnosis in the wide clinical spectrum of CD reducing the delay in diagnosis and treatment. The introduction of either anti-endomysial antibodies (EMA) assay or rapid anti-Transglutaminase 2 (TG2) test on supernatant of mechanically lysed biopsy samples in the clinical practice would improve the diagnosis of CD, especially in clinically challenging scenarios. The availability of an accurate test for identifying intestinal CD-antibodies that do not need the...
