Personalized Approach to Celiac Disease Diagnosis
Conditions: Celiac Disease
Sex: All
Ages: 18 Years – N/A
Healthy volunteers: No
Enrollment: 15500
Sponsor: The Cleveland Clinic
Summary
The goal of this observational study is to learn about an adult's chance of having celiac disease based on blood testing and symptoms. The main question it aims to answer is:
Can a blood test and symptom information separate patients into 3 groups of low, intermediate, and high risk for celiac disease?
Participants already being evaluated for celiac disease as part of regular medical care will answer online survey questions about symptoms and have laboratory data collected from charts.
The investigators hypothesize that a clinical prediction model integrating clinical data with TTG-IgA antibody levels can accurately identify patients with celiac disease offering a personalized approach. The investigators anticipate this prediction model would classify patients into 3 risk groups for celiac disease: 1) Low likelihood (no further testing required), 2) Intermediate likelihood (biopsy required for confirmation), and 3) High likelihood (biopsy can be avoided based on the model's accuracy) thereby reserving endoscopy and biopsies for cases of intermediate probability to improve diagnosis, reduce invasive testing, increase patient focus, and decrease costs.
Eligibility Criteria
For Aim 1:
Inclusion Criteria:
* Patients ≥18 who underwent duodenal biopsy during upper endoscopy and had a TTG-IgA antibody test 3 months before or 1 month after biopsy
Exclusion Criteria:
* Patients with a prior diagnosis of celiac disease undergoing biopsy and TTG-IgA antibody testing for follow-up care
* Children and vulnerable populations (e.g. pregnant women or prisoners)
* Patients with IgA deficiency
* Patients already following a gluten-free diet
For Aim 2:
Inclusion Criteria:
* Physicians (primary care or subspeciality) who test or evaluate patients for celiac disease
* Patients already diagnosed with celiac disease or undergoing evaluation for celiac disease
Exclusion Criteria:
\- Children and vulnerable populations (e.g. pregnant women or prisoners)
For Aim 3:
Inclusion Criteria:
* Patients ≥18 with a standard-of-care celiac disease evaluation (both TTG-IgA antibody and upper endoscopy with duodenal biopsy)
* Willing to participate and able to provide informed consent
Exclusion Criteria:
\- Children and vulnerable populations (e.g. pregnant women or prisoners)
