Individual semi-structured interviews were conducted in 2016-2017 with undergraduates (n=24) at a large public university. Eligible participants were 18-25 years old with self-reported physician-diagnosed celiac disease. The interview question path was based on the Health Belief Model and assessed individual and social influences on eating choices. Transcribed interviews were independently coded by three researchers (ICR=.82) then analyzed for themes using the Health Belief Model as a guiding framework. Barriers to complying with a gluten-free diet included the college meal plan, meal planning and cooking skills, negotiating social interactions around food, financial burden of purchasing gluten-free food, and intentionally eating gluten as self-confidence grew. Students often reframed non-compliance as a “cheat day,” discussing it as they would a reduced-calorie diet, which could reduce perceived threat. Providers discussed threats to health in terms of long-term outcomes but students focused on the immediate impact of eating gluten. Nutritionists, parents, and health care providers can better prepare college students for the transition to independent food choices and how to remain compliant with a gluten-free diet within the challenging college food environment.","PeriodicalId":13927,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Celiac Disease","volume":"201 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76990844","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is generally believed to be an immune-mediated small intestinal mucosal disorder that can cause diarrhea, impaired nutrient assimilation and weight loss. A key component in this process occurs at the intestinal epithelial cell surface that is closely associated with the luminal intestinal microbiome. Here, epithelial membrane glycoproteins and glycolipids are present along with adsorbed molecules that permit interaction with the intestinal microbiome. In recent years, use of specific sugar residue seeking proteins, lectins, that can be found in the diet have been employed topographically to map the small intestinal cell surface and goblet cell secretory mucins to further elucidate the structure and function of this tissue. Evidence has accumulated to indicate that this microenvironment may be critically important in further understanding the etiology and pathogenesis of celiac disease and other sprue-like intestinal disorders.","PeriodicalId":13927,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Celiac Disease","volume":"73 5 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91554949","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They are in clinical use for almost the last two decades. In the first decade they were preferentially used in early childhood, in face of IgA deficiency and occasionally recommended as the prime serological marker, outperforming the anti-tissue transglutaminase autoantibody. Notably, they were recommended in combination with the tissue transglutaminase as enhancer of the diagnostic performances. No more, the circle turned over. In the second decade (2012-2019), most of the studies limited and criticized their past published advantages. They suggested that deamidated gliadin peptides antibodies do not have any advantage over anti-tissue transglutaminase autoantibodies in terms of early childhood, IgA deficiency, diagnostic performances and when both antibodies are combined. It seems that the deamidated gliadin peptide are losing their place in the celiac disease algorithmic diagnostic flow chart.","PeriodicalId":13927,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Celiac Disease","volume":"1 1","pages":"42-45"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90330686","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Initially the disease was reported in few of the countries specifically in predominant Caucasian populations, but now a day it is being reported from almost all parts of the world. Simplification of the diagnostic criteria and widespread use of serologic tests have made it possible to estimate the prevalence of CD in the general population. But the exact global prevalence of the celiac disease is quite ambiguous due to the fact that when the disease is diagnosed with tTG test it is generally not confirmed with the biopsy examinations whereas, diagnosis should be based on the combination of both as per current guidelines on diagnosis of CD. The seropositive based (anti-tissue transglutaminase and/or anti-endomysial antibodies) data shows a high global prevalence of 1.4% whereas biopsy-confirmation based data shows a global prevalence of only 0.7%. Although prevalence of celiac disease varies with respect to sex, age, and location etc. but its accurate prevalence is not being reported due to various reasons. At the same time, a classified data of prevalence of the celiac disease based on multiple factors does not exist. This manuscript intends to highlight various underlying reasons responsible for generating vague prevalence data worldwide along with an awareness note regarding practical implications of diagnostic modalities.","PeriodicalId":13927,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Celiac Disease","volume":"17 1","pages":"33-41"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74239477","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
