Celiac disease can develop at any time and canbe diagnosed at any age. It is important to note that, atpresent, celiac disease is most frequently diagnosed in thefourth to fifth decade of life 8 .
Celiac disease is an autoimmune disease that means people who have it and eat gluten will damage their small intestine. And when people eat things like wheat, rye, or barley, their body reacts, and that reaction is harmful to their small intestine. Millions of people are impacted by celiac disease.
The only treatment for celiac disease is a very strict gluten-free diet. People with celiac disease can develop symptoms from even the tiniest amount of gluten in their diet, such as using cooking utensils that were also used for cooking food with gluten on them.
Individuals with celiac disease have different needs at different times in their life. Because of these special needs, celiac disease is considered a disability under the Americans with Disabilities Act. This designation is particularly relevant in certain public establishments, like educational institutions, from pre-school to college.

Note: If Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) Antibody (IgA) is Detected (≥15.0 U/mL), then Endomysial Antibody (IgA) Screen will be performed at an additional charge (CPT code: 86231).
tTG-IgA and tTG-IgG tests The tTG-IgA test is the preferred celiac disease serologic test for most patients. Research suggests that the tTG-IgA test has a sensitivity of 78% to 100% and a specificity of 90% to 100%.
Celiac disease, sometimes called celiac sprue or gluten-sensitive enteropathy, is an immune reaction to eating gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley and rye. If you have celiac disease, eating gluten triggers an immune response in your small intestine.

Screening is the testing for disease or disease precursors in asymptomatic individuals so that early detection and treatment can be provided for those who test positive for the disease. Type 1 Excludes. encounter for diagnostic examination-code to sign or symptom. Encounter for screening for other diseases and disorders.
As a preliminary diagnostic test for persons with symptoms suggestive of celiac disease; or. To monitor response to a gluten-free diet; or. To screen first-degree relatives of individuals with celiac disease; or. To screen persons with type 1 diabetes for celiac disease.
Serological testing can be used to identify symptomatic individuals that need a confirmatory biopsy, to screen at-risk populations or to monitor diet compliance in patients previously diagnosed with CD. Thus, interpretation of serological testing requires consideration of the full clinical scenario.
CD is characterized by an abnormal proximal small intestinal mucosa, and it is associated with a permanent intolerance to gluten. Removal of gluten from the diet leads to a full clinical remission and restoration of the small intestinal mucosa to normality.
Accepted guidelines indicate that small intestinal biopsy is still mandatory. Treatment of CD consists of excluding wheat, rye, barley, and oats from the diet for life. In the short-term, clinical studies have shown that this will permit normal growth, with achievement of the child's full growth potential.
The toxic effects of gluten most likely result from an immunologic mechanism. Circulating antibodies to wheat fractions and other dietary proteins have been detected in the sera of patients with CD. Increased density of the intraepithelial lymphocytes in the small intestinal mucosa is a hallmark of the disease.
It is a lifelong disorder and affects both children and adults. It may present for the first time in either childhood or adult life. Gluten, which is the protein responsible for CD, is found in the grain of wheat, rye, oats, and barley. The toxic effects of gluten most likely result from an immunologic mechanism.
Antibodies directed against native gliadin are not recommended for the primary detection of CD. AGA guidelines state that, combining several tests for CD in lieu of TTG IgA alone may marginally increase the sensitivity for CD but reduces specificity and therefore are not recommended in low-risk populations.
