Abstract:BackgroundPoint‐of‐care tests (POCTs) may have a role in detecting undiagnosed cases of Celiac disease (CD). We assessed the diagnostic accuracy of a novel POCT, compared with the conventional serological methods, for simultaneous anti‐transglutaminase (tTG) IgA and anti‐deamidated gliadin (DGP) IgG antibody detection. Furthermore, we evaluated the effect of different biological matrices (whole blood and serum) on test performance.MethodsSerum and whole blood from celiac or suspected celiac patients who underw… Show more
