Trial summary

Celiac disease leads to malnutrition and secondary conditions including osteoporosis. The dietary habits of adults with untreated, undiagnosed celiac disease has not yet been observed, but presents a critical piece in understanding the effects of the disease on bone health.

Study population: Adults aged 18+ years with a complete 24-hour recall in WWEIA and a completed celiac disease serologic test. Two groups were used in the analysis. The control group consisted of a normal adult population without celiac disease, as indicated by a negative serologic test for celiac disease and no self-reported celiac disease. The serologically positive group were considered to have undiagnosed, untreated celiac disease based on a positive serologic test for celiac disease (EMA+), no self-reported celiac disease, and no adherence to a gluten-free diet. NHANES employs two steps of serologic tests for selected participants to screen for celiac disease antibodies that develop as a T-cell-mediated response to gluten.

Who cannot join

  • Adults were excluded if they were pregnant or breastfeeding at the time of the study, or if they reported any history of celiac disease.

About this study

Official title: Nutritional Intake and Bone Health Among Adults With Undiagnosed, Untreated Celiac Disease

Celiac disease leads to malnutrition and secondary conditions including osteoporosis. The dietary habits of adults with untreated, undiagnosed celiac disease has not yet been observed, but presents a critical piece in understanding the effects of the disease on bone health. Objective was to evaluate differences in nutritional intake of calcium, vitamin D, and phosphorus; serologic indices of these nutrients; and bone health among adults with and without celiac disease. Cross-sectional data from What We Eat in America (WWEIA) and the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2009-14 was analyzed.

Celiac disease leads to malnutrition and secondary conditions including osteoporosis. The dietary habits of adults with untreated, undiagnosed celiac disease has not yet been observed, but presents a critical piece in understanding the effects of the disease on bone health. Objective was to evaluate differences in nutritional intake of calcium, vitamin D, and phosphorus; serologic indices of these nutrients; and bone health among adults with and without celiac disease.

Cross-sectional data from What We Eat in America (WWEIA) and the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2009-14 was analyzed, including self-reported dietary and supplement intake from one day of 24-hour recalls, serologic indicators, and dual x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans were analyzed in adults (n=49) testing positive for celiac disease to the tissue transglutaminase endomysial antibody assay (tTG-EMA). Statistical analysis included multiple linear regression modelling controlled for age, sex, race/ethnicity, energy intake, and poverty income ratio.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Celiac Disease, run by George Mason University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Dec 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Dietary Intake (time frame: 24 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Dec 2017.
