“…The project aims to create a comprehensive repository of fatwās for scholars, policymakers, and individuals interested in Islamic perspectives on the pandemic. By August 2020, the project had gathered over 100 fatwās from nearly 30 countries/regions, spanning various languages including Arabic, Urdu, Farsi, English, Turkish, and Indonesian (Bahasa) (Zulfiqar 2020).…”

The rapid escalation of the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 into a global pandemic, culminating in the World Health Organization’s declaration on March 11, 2020, marked a historic milestone. The far-reaching impact of the COVID-19 pandemic necessitates an interdisciplinary approach to address its myriad ethical challenges. This article categorizes the key ethical questions explored from an Islamic perspective into two groups: “Historical Issues” and “Modern Issues.” The former revisits questions examined in pre-modern discussions on historical pandemics, while the latter delves into ethical challenges relatively unique to the contemporary context of COVID-19. Each group’s exploration is complemented by a section on “Related Sources,” offering insight into pertinent primary works. The article concludes with reflections on the evolving trajectory of research in this field. Serving its introductory purpose, the article includes two appendices: Appendix 1, “Overview of Key Ethical Issues," provides a condensed summary in table form, while Appendix 2, “An Extended Bibliography on Islam, Pandemics, COVID-19, and Morality,” offers a comprehensive list of primary and secondary sources for researchers interested in further readings.

“…Anti-tTG IgA titers are an initial screening test for CD due to high sensitivity and specificity (5), correlated with intestinal mucosal damage (4), making duodenal mucosal viability the gold standard method, confirmed by laboratory studies (6). Anti-tTG IgA titers are also correlated with histological changes in the duodenum (7) and can be used to monitor response to a gluten-free diet (GFD) (8). The best and most successful treatment for CD is GFD with complete adherence (9).…”

Background: Celiac disease is a hereditary digestive disease in children associated with an autoimmune disorder of the small intestine. This study aimed to study aortic stiffness in children with celiac disease compared with controls and assess the effects of a gluten-free diet on aortic stiffness parameters. Methods: This case-control study was conducted on 114 children with celiac disease and 57 healthy volunteers. Children with celiac disease comprised three groups: Gluten-free diet (GFD)-responsive, GFD-nonresponsive, and newly diagnosed. Systolic and diastolic diameters of the ascending aorta were recorded by M-mode echocardiography. Data were analyzed using SPSS 20. Study data had free distribution and nonparametric tests were applied for the analysis. The tests were Mann-Whitney U and Kruskal-Wallis with P value < 0.05as the significance level. Results: Aortic strain (11.15 ± 7.47 vs. 13.78 ± 6.95, P = 0.002) and aortic distensibility (6.98 ± 5.03 vs. 8.33 ± 5.13, P = 0.037) were lower in celiac disease (CD) while pressure strain elastic modulus (410.60 ± 247.45 vs. 330.71 ± 216.94, P = 0.012) and aortic strain β index (1.79 ± 0.62 vs. 1.44 ± 0.51, P < 0.001) were higher. The aortic strain significantly differed between control and response to GFD (P = 0.026), control and new diagnosis (P < 0.001), response to GFD and new diagnosis (P = 0.003), and no response to GFD and new diagnosis (P < 0.001) groups. The aortic strain β index differed significantly between control and response to GFD (P ≤ 0.001), control and new diagnosis (P < 0.001), response to GFD and no response to GFD (P = 0.035), response to GFD and new diagnosis (P = 0.002), and no response to GFD and new diagnosis (P < 0.001) groups. Aortic distensibility significantly differed between control and new diagnosis (P < 0.001), response to GFD and new diagnosis (P = 0.037), and no response to GFD and new diagnosis (P = 0.021) groups. Pressure strain elastic modulus significantly differed between control and new diagnosis (P < 0.001), response to GFD and new diagnosis (P = 0.037), and no response to GFD and new diagnosis (P = 0.021) groups. Conclusions: The present study concluded that the elasticity parameters will change due to celiac disease. Gluten-free diet had no significant effect on aortic stiffing measures except the ASβ index.
