Refractory Celiac Disease and EATL Patients Show Severe Malnutrition and Malabsorption at Diagnosis
Celiac.com 06/17/2015 - Refractory celiac disease type II (RCDII) and EATL (Enteropathy Associated T-cell Lymphoma) are pre-malignant complications of celiac disease. However, there is scant medical literature and data what role malnutrition and intestinal absorption may play in these conditions.
With this in mind, a team of researchers set out to conduct a comprehensive assessment of nutritional status and intestinal absorption capacity of patients with RCDII and EATL, and to compare that with data of newly diagnosed celiac disease patients. The research team included N.J. Wierdsma, P. Nijeboer, M.A. de van der Schueren, M. Berkenpas, A.A. van Bodegraven, and C.J. Mulder.
They are affiliated with the Department of Nutrition and Dietetics, the Department of Gastroenterology, the Celiac...

Enteropathy-Associated T-Cell Lymphoma Type I Strongly Expresses CD30
Celiac.com 10/25/2016 - Some potentially big news for people who suffer from enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma (EATL), an intestinal tumor that targets intraepithelial T lymphocytes. EATL may be preceded by refractory celiac disease (RCD), which resists treatment with gluten-free diet. In almost all cases, a range of the tumor cells express CD30.
RCD occurs in two types based on the absence (type I) or presence (type II) of abnormal intraepithelial lymphocytes (IEL) showing down-regulation of CD8 and often TCR gamma genes rearrangement. RCD II is now considered as a small cell intraepithelial T-cell lymphoma that could be an intermediate stage between celiac disease and EATL.
A team of researchers recently set out to establish the pattern of CD30 expression in EATL, which help...

What Can We Learn from T-cell Repertoires in Refractory Celiac Disease?
$What Can We Learn from T-cell Repertoires in Refractory Celiac Disease?$

Celiac.com 07/03/2017 - Refractory celiac disease (RCD) is a serious complication of celiac disease. There are two types, RCD I, and RCD II. Unlike RCD type I, RCD type II often leads to enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma (EATL), which is associated with clonally expanding T-cells that are also found in the sequentially developing EATL.
Using high-throughput sequencing (HTS), a team of researchers recently set out to establish the small-intestinal T-cell repertoire (TCR) in celiac disease and RCD to unravel the role of distinct T-cell clonotypes in RCD pathogenesis.
The research team included J Ritter, K Zimmermann, K Jöhrens, S Mende, A Seegebarth, B Siegmund, S Hennig, K Todorova, A Rosenwald, S Daum, M Hummel, and M Schumann.
They are variously affiliated with the Institute ...

Older Adults Diagnosed with Celiac Disease Face Higher T-cell Lymphoma Risk
Celiac.com 05/22/2019 - What are the risks for lymphoma and gastrointestinal cancer in patients 55 years and older with newly diagnosed adult-onset celiac disease?
Researchers and clinicians have reported connections between celiac disease and the development of certain lymphoid and gastrointestinal (GI) cancers, but there just isn't much good data. Without good data, it's impossible to develop effective evidence-based follow-up protocols.
In an effort to develop better information on the subject, a team of researchers recently set out to determine relative (RR) and absolute risks of lymphoma and GI carcinoma for newly diagnosed adult celiac patients.
The research team included Tom van Gils, Petula Nijeboer, Lucy IH Overbeek, Michael Hauptmann, Daan AR Castelijn, Gerd...

  Welcome to the forum, @Kiwifruit! Were you on a reduced gluten diet when those blood tests or the biopsies were done?

  Hi everyone. I have a history of GI issues (gas, diarrhoea, pain, fatigue). In 2018 I had a a blood test that returned “weak positive” for Celiac (I don’t have access to this result) and in early 2018 I had an endoscopy. The dr said by appearance he believed it would be Celiac but biopsy said no. 2022 I had another blood test with results: ...

Losing out on peanut butter sandwiches does suck though. In all, these three sensitivies...

  Is this safe for someone with celiac disease?
  
  I agree with @RMJ and unfortunately different celiacs have different trigger levels for gluten, and some celiacs have little or no symptoms at all when exposed to gluten.
