Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Celiac disease leads to malnutrition and secondary conditions including osteoporosis. The dietary habits of adults with untreated, undiagnosed celiac disease has not yet been observed, but presents a critical piece in understanding the effects of the disease on bone health. Objective was to evaluate differences in nutritional intake of calcium, vitamin D, and phosphorus; serologic indices of these nutrients; and bone health among adults with and without celiac disease. Cross-sectional data from What We Eat in America (WWEIA) and the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2009-14 was analyzed.

Detailed Description

Celiac disease leads to malnutrition and secondary conditions including osteoporosis. The dietary habits of adults with untreated, undiagnosed celiac disease has not yet been observed, but presents a critical piece in understanding the effects of the disease on bone health. Objective was to evaluate differences in nutritional intake of calcium, vitamin D, and phosphorus; serologic indices of these nutrients; and bone health among adults with and without celiac disease.

Cross-sectional data from What We Eat in America (WWEIA) and the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2009-14 was analyzed, including self-reported dietary and supplement intake from one day of 24-hour recalls, serologic indicators, and dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans were analyzed in adults (n=49) testing positive for celiac disease to the tissue transglutaminase endomysial antibody assay (tTG-EMA). Statistical analysis included multiple linear regression modelling controlled for age, sex, race/ethnicity, energy intake, and poverty income ratio.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

Adults aged 18+ years with a complete 24-hour recall in WWEIA and a completed celiac disease serologic test. Two groups were used in the analysis. The control group consisted of a normal adult population without celiac disease, as indicated by a negative serologic test for celiac disease and no self-reported celiac disease. The serologically positive group were considered to have undiagnosed, untreated celiac disease based on a positive serologic test for celiac disease (EMA+), no self-reported celiac disease, and no adherence to a gluten-free diet. NHANES employs two steps of serologic tests for selected participants to screen for celiac disease antibodies that develop as a T-cell-mediated response to gluten.

Exclusion Criteria

* Adults were excluded if they were pregnant or breastfeeding at the time of the study, or if they reported any history of celiac disease.
