    Scott Adams

    Scott Adams was diagnosed with celiac disease in 1994, and, due to the nearly total lack of information available at that time, was forced to become an expert on the disease in order to recover. In 1995 he launched the site that later became Celiac.com to help as many people as possible with celiac disease get diagnosed so they can begin to live happy, healthy gluten-free lives.  He is co-author of the book Cereal Killers, and founder and publisher of the (formerly paper) newsletter Journal of Gluten Sensitivity. In 1998 he founded The Gluten-Free Mall which he sold in 2014. Celiac.com does not sell any products, and is 100% advertiser supported.

    Major Cohort Study Assesses Cancer Risk in Celiac Disease
    Celiac.com 09/20/2021 - People with celiac disease face an increased risk of death, in part due to cancer. Most studies investigating this cancer risk involved patients diagnosed before widespread increases in celiac disease diagnosis rates and access to gluten-free food. A team of researchers recently conducted a population-based study to assess the risk of cancer for people with celiac disease.
    For their study, the team used the Epidemiology Strengthened by histoPathology Reports in a Swedish cohort to gather data from all celiac disease patients in Sweden, with celiac disease defined as duodenal/jejunal villus atrophy. 
    They then matched each patient by age, sex, and county to five or fewer control subjects. Then, following patients from diagnosis until first cancer, o...

    Higher Cancer Risk for People with Immune-Mediated Diseases
    Celiac.com 02/28/2022 - Immune regulation is important for carcinogenesis; however, the cancer risk profiles associated with immune-mediated diseases, like celiac disease, are not well understood.
    A team of researchers recently set out to assess the profiles of cancer risk associated with 48 immune-mediated diseases with the risk of total and individual cancers. They also assessed the prospective association of organ-specific immune-mediated diseases with the risk of local and extra-local cancers.
    The research team included Ming-ming He, MD; Chun-Han Lo, MD, MPH; Kai Wang, MD, PhD; Georgios Polychronidis, MD; Liang Wang, MD; Rong Zhong, PhD; Markus D. Knudsen, PhD; Zhe Fang, MD; and Mingyang Song, MD, ScD.
    For their prospective cohort study, the team used data from...

    Celiac Disease Brings a Higher Risk of Colorectal Cancer
    Celiac.com 04/10/2023 - The association between celiac disease and the development of small bowel lymphoproliferative disorders and esophageal adenocarcinoma is well-established, but there is limited evidence of an increased risk of colorectal cancer in these patients. 
    Cross-sectional Population-based Study
    To evaluate the risk of developing colorectal cancer in patients with celiac disease a team of researchers recently conducted a cross-sectional population-based study using a commercial database that contains the electronic health records from 26 major integrated US healthcare systems. 
    The team included patients aged 18-65 years of age, and excluded those with inflammatory bowel disease. They used multivariate analysis to calculate the risk of developing colorectal can...

    Rise in Fatal Celiac-Related Cancer Alarms Researchers
    Celiac.com 02/19/2024 - A recent study presented at the 2023 annual meeting of the American College of Gastroenterology has raised concerns about the increasing incidence of enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma (EATL) – a rare and aggressive form of T-cell, non-Hodgkin lymphoma. This alarming trend has prompted researchers to explore the possible connection between EATL and celiac disease, shedding light on the risks faced by individuals with this autoimmune condition.
    Lead investigator Dr. Isabel Hujoel, Clinic Director of the Celiac Disease Center at UW Medical Center, Seattle, highlighted the strong association between EATL and celiac disease. While EATL is rare, most cases are observed in patients with celiac disease, suggesting a potential link between the two conditions. ...
