Latest study  published in JAMA, researchers screened 4,24,788 newborn infants for HLA (A genetic predisposition to the development of celiac disease),  Of these, 6, 757 participated,, representing 1.44% of the study population.  The results of this study indicated each additional gram of gluten consumption per day was associated with a 50% increased risk of celiac disease in genetically predisposed children at age 3.  However, because the results were based on such a small subset of the larger sample, the results may not be representative of the broader population.

The second study published in the American Journal of Gastroenterology, examined data collected from 1,875 at-risk children between 1993 and 2017. Of th4ese, 151 (8.5%) developed celiac disease autoimmunity (positive blood antibodies) and 85 (4.5% developed celiac disease (biopsy-verified or persistently high blood antibodies).  The researchers found the risk of celiac disease autoimmunity increased by 5% for each gram of gluten consumed between the ages of 1 and 2 years of age.  The risk of later developing celiac disease autoimmunity was found to be strongest for an increased gluten intake at 1 year of age. However, these results were also based on a small subset (3.3%) of the larger sample, focusing only on genetically at-risk children. Because of this, these results should not be generalized to recommendations for children irrespective of genetic risk.

 

Lastly, The AMerican Journal of Gastroenterology recently published a study examinining tyhe moBa-cohort. Unlike the previous two studies, this sstudy was population based and did not consider genetic risk  (HLA)O.  Of ccourse some 113,000 children initially enrolled.  67,608 were included in the study, 738 (1.1%) of whom were diagnosed with celiac disease. The rsearchers found that risk of celiac disease inceased by 3% with each gram of extra gluten intake per day, with gluten who were introducd to gluten at 6 months of age or older havng a significantly higher risk of celiac disease than those introduced at 4 - 6 months.

While the rsults of these three studies suggest that one extra clice of bread (about 2 grams of gluten) per daY SEEMS TO BE LINKED TO AN 20 -

Vonnie, the way this was presented was confusing to me.

"screened 4,24,788 newborn infants" There's a digit missing there somewhere between the first and second commas I believe.

"HLA" One or both genes that have been identified with celiac disease potential?

"While the rsults of these three studies suggest that one extra clice of bread (about 2 grams of gluten) per daY SEEMS TO BE LINKED TO AN 20 -" This is your last line. Looks like an incomplete thought or sentence.

Is there a summary conclusion that will tie together the findings of all three studies? Something like, if your infant has one or both celic potential genes, feeding them gluten before the age of xx increases the likelihood they will develop active celiac disease by xx%? I'm not sure what the application is here from the data.

You might want to go back and reread your post to correct typos.

      My bone structure is disintegrating and I’m having to have my teeth removed

      There’s a Cosco in Auckland in New Zealand. It’s a bit away from where I live but it’s worth the travel for me. Very appreciative of your advice.

      Celiac Maybe a Possibility?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      It seems you have proven that you cannot eat gluten.  You've done what your doctors have not been able to do in 40 years. That's your low vitamin D, a common symptom with Celiac Disease.  Zinc is also a common defiency.  Its an antiviral.  that's why zinc gluconate lozenges work against airborne viruses.  Vitamin D and the Immune System+ Toe cramps, I find 250 mg of Thiamine helps.   When I started GFD I counted 19 symptoms going back to childhood that improved with Gluten Free Diet and vitamin D. I still take 10,000 IU a day to maintain 80 ng/ml and get it tested 4 times a year. Highest was 93 ng/ml and that was at end of summer.  Any excess is stored in fat or excreted through bile.   The western diet is deficient in many nutrients including choline and iodine.  Thats why processed foods are fortified.  Celiac Disease causes malabsorption of vitamins and minerals from the small intestine damage.  GFD stops the damage, but you will still have symptoms of deficiency until you get your vitamins repleted to normal.  Try to reduce your omega 6:3 ratio.  The Standard American Diet is 14:1 or greater.  Healthy is 3:1.  Wheat flour is 22:1.  Potatoes are 3:1 while sweet potatoes are 14:1.  So those sweet potatos that everyone says is better than Russet: they are increasing your inflammation levels.

      Weird Symptoms

      My mother also has celiac disease, and one of her symptoms for many years before her diagnosis was TMJ. I believe it took her many years on a gluten-free diet before this issue went away.

      Weird Symptoms

      By Jeff Platt · Posted

      Ear pain and ringing your entire life may or may not be TMJ related but could be something else. A good TMJ exam would be helpful to rule that out as a potential cause from a dentist who treats that. I have teens as well as adults of all ages who suffer from TMJ issues so it’s not a certain age when it shows up.

      Weird Symptoms

      By cristiana · Posted

      Not sure if related to coeliac disease but my ear ringing  has stepped up a notch since diagnosis.  Even since a child silence really hurts my ears - there is always a really loud noise if there is no other noise in a quiet room - but my brain has learned to filter it out.  Since diagnosis in my forties I also get a metallic ringing in my ears, sometimes just one, sometimes both.  But it comes and goes.   My sister also suffers now, we are both in our fifties, but she is not a coeliac, so for all I know it could just be an age thing.  I do get occasional stabbing pain in my ears but that has been all my life, and I do appear to be vulnerable to outer ear infections too.  So not a particularly helpful reply here, but I suppose what I am trying to say is it might be related but then again it could just be one of those things.   I think in the UK where I live doctors like you to report if you get tinnitus in just the one ear.  I reported mine but no cause was found.  Most of the time it is nothing but sometimes it can have a cause that can be treated, so perhaps worth reporting to your GP.
