Paediatric coeliac disease; more cases, more symptoms and fewer biopsies than before
- Lydia ChapmanCardiff University
Lydia Chapman, Cardiff University, discusses her work in investigating the number of paediatric patients diagnosed with coeliac disease via biopsy and non-biopsy pathways and comparing this to their IgA-TTG results. The main findings showed that there are more diagnoses occurring via non-biopsy approach. The team also identified that all patients diagnosed with an IgA-TTG greater than 5x ULN were diagnosed with coeliac disease and thus they question the possibility of lowering the non-biopsy diagnosis threshold. This interview took place at the RCPCH conference 2024 in Birmingham, UK.
