“…All of the children in this study responded to a gluten-free diet, and control of diabetes also improved. In Finland, two studies using antireticulin and antigliadin antibodies showed a prevalance of celiac disease of 2.3 and 3.5%, respectively, among 215 and 201 children with type 1 diabetes (17,18). These children had symptoms that could be attributed to celiac disease but none had diarrhea or symptoms of malabsorbtion.…”

“…It is mandatory for accurate analysis that children with additional pathology are excluded. Both the frequency of coeliac disease [27] as well as of hypothyroidism [31] are increased in type-1 diabetes. As mild forms of both disorders are common, a regular screening of all patients with type-1 diabetes is required.…”

“…From these historical reports it remains unclear whether undiagnosed coeliac disease might have been present in some of the patients included, since the association between type-1 diabetes and coeliac disease has only been recognized about 15 years ago [27]. For studies on the growth rate in children with diabetes, a regular screening for anti-gliadin antibodies and exclusion of patients with suspected or proven coeliac disease is therefore mandatory.…”

“…Children with this disease are at increased risk of celiac disease (2,4), with a prevalence of biopsyconfirmed celiac disease ranging from 1 to 11% (2) (Swedish studies: 3-5% [5,6]). This constitutes a 5-to 10-fold risk increase for celiac disease (7) and may partly be explained by shared HLA in celiac disease and type 1 diabetes (8).…”
