  • Title: [Clinical courses of celiac disease].
    Author: Parfenov AI, Sabel'nikova EA, Krums LM.
    Journal: Eksp Klin Gastroenterol; 2006; (6):108-14, 139. PubMed ID: 17612104.
    Abstract:
    The article describes the clinical picture of different options of celiac disease. The disease has mostly a subdued and oligosymptomatic form and is associated with different autoimmune diseases. The screening celiac disease diagnostics (detection of gliadin, endomysium and tissue transglutaminase anti-antibodies) is used to detect the celiac disease in patients belonging to the risk group. The morphologic study of the small intestine mucous membrane is the most reliable diagnostics method. A strict life-term gluten-free diet is the key method for celiac disease treatment. In case of severe malabsorption syndrome, metabolic disorders are corrected.
