Less than one-third of these patients had evidence of celiac serology results in the medical record, and even in patients with pre-biopsy testing the majority were serologically negative (Table 1).
Given the high sensitivity and specificity of serologic testing, one would expect to find a fairly high diagnostic yield in duodenal biopsies for celiac disease. In a population with a disease ...
The highest sensitivity (95.2%) of celiac disease detection in DM1 children was found in the case of serologic test detecting anti-tTG (IgA tTG), whereas the lowest sensitivity characterized test ...
Background. A 62-year-old postmenopausal woman with a family history of breast cancer, mild gastroesophageal reflux disease, iron-deficient anemia and declining BMD was seen in a specialist center ...
The gold standard for definitive diagnosis of celiac disease is positive serology for IgA anti-tissue transglutaminase (tTG) and IgA endomysial antibodies in the duodenal plan. Untreated celiac ...
(reference e5 in our article), after evidence-based evaluation of 2510 studies of the diagnostic potential of celiac serology testing. Current (prospective) studies are investigating this ...
