Anaphylaxis after wheat ingestion in a patient with coeliac disease: Two kinds of reactions and the same culprit food
In recent years, the role of atopic dermatitis epidermal skin barrier defects in inducing a transcutaneous allergic sensitization is highly debated, possibly explaining why some children with eczema are sensitized to foods they have never eaten. In our specific situation, the association between coeliac disease and wheat allergy might be particularly harmful owing to unavoidable strict food avoidance.
Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, mediterranean diet, and bone health in coeliac disease patients: a pilot Study
Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has been proposed as a bone loss index in postmenopausal women and as a marker of
inflammation in coeliac patients. The aims of this work were to evaluate the effect of gluten-free diet (GFD) on NLR
retrospectively and study the relationship between NLR and Mediterranean diet adherence and selected food groups (fruits,
vegetables, red meat, potatoes, and unrefined and refined cereals). Adult individuals (n = 50), who had been on a strict GFD by
Gluten-free diet impact on dynamics of pancreatic islet-specific autoimmunity detected at celiac disease diagnosis
Objective: Almost 6% of celiac disease (CD) patients at diagnosis are positive for at least one of the main pancreatic islet autoantibodies that characterize type 1 diabetes (T1D). Few information, dated back to almost two decades ago, exist as to whether a gluten-free diet (GFD) could reduce the islet-specific autoimmunity detected in patients at CD diagnosis. Aim of the study was to evaluate the impact of GFD on 31 patients who presented islet-specific autoimmunity at CD diagnosis.
