Filter by:This study examined the impact of a gluten-free diet on nutritional status and inflammation markers in adult celiac patients compared to a control group. Twenty-six celiac patients and 26 healthy individuals participated. Interviews, dietary records, anthropometric measurements, and blood samples were collected. After six weeks, celiac patients showed improved adherence to the gluten-free diet and increased quality of life scores. While initial micronutrient intake was lower in celiac patients, it improved over the study period. However, there were no significant changes in inflammation markers.
One of the factors affecting human health is nutrition. The effects of foods on blood glucose are still under investigation. The Glycemic Index (GI), which is associated with many diseases today, is a value that measures the rate at which carbohydrate-containing foods raise blood glucose. It is thought that the loaves of bread produced will be a product with low GI value and can be consumed by celiacs and diabetics. It is aimed to investigate the effect of adding different amounts of hazelnut flour to bread recipes using gluten-free corn flour on blood glucose.
A retrospective monocentric observational no-profit study with the aim of evaluating the entity and potential variables influencing the catch-up growth of childhood gluten-free diet patients with celiac disease during a 10-year follow-up. The only extrapolation of the data collected in anonymized form from the medical records of patients who match the necessary study criteria will be planned in order to achieve this aim. A 900-patient sample size will be planned.
Randomized controlled trial will be conducted after getting informed consent form from each study participant meeting inclusion criteria (n=70, 35 control group +35 intervention group, 3-8years of age). After consumer acceptance against various attributes of aglutenic cupcake, the product will be provided in polyethylene bags containing 28 cupcakes (35gm by weight/cupcake, 2 cupcakes for each day) providing approximately 20% daily value (DV) of energy. Cupcakes of equal weight and size made with rice flour (mostly used recipe) will be provided to the control group. Further product will be provided on follow-up visits. The compliance to a gluten free diet GFD and supplemented product will be confirmed by a Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ).
We propose the Gluten Free Nutrition Optimization through Ultra-processed food Reduction and Improved Strategies for Health (GF-NOURISH) study to demonstrate the feasibility and success of a nutritional education program focused on naturally occurring gluten-free foods and minimizing ultra-processed gluten-free foods. We hypothesize that nutritional educational (GF-NOURISH) intervention will have multiple health benefits
First in human study to understand the potential side effects of MTX-101, how long MTX-101 lasts in the human body, and how MTX-101 affects specific human immune cells.
Celiac disease (CD) is a common auto-immune disorder induced by gluten ingestion in genetically susceptible individuals (HLA-DQ2/DQ8). Gluten induces small-bowel villous atrophy and a specific immune response characterized by the production of CD-autoantibodies against transglutaminase 2 (anti-TG2) and endomysium (EMA). In symptomatic patients with positive-serum antibodies and villous atrophy, the diagnosis of CD is clearcut. However, 10-30% of patients evaluated for suspected CD show only mild histopathologic changes and fluctuating serologic markers, a condition identified as potential CD. In such cases the diagnosis may remain uncertain. CD-autoantibodies are produced by intestinal B-cells in the early phases of the disease, before their appearance in the serum and when the duodenal mucosa is still normal. Intestinal CD-antibodies (I-CD-abs) are a marker of CD, have a high sensitivity and specificity for CD and identify those patients with potential CD who are at risk of progression to villous atrophy. I-CD-abs can be detected by double immunofluorescence staining on frozen duodenal sections or by using an endomysial antibody assay in the culture medium of duodenal biopsies (EMAbiopsy). The diagnostic accuracy of these techniques is comparable as they both have high sensitivity and specificity. However, their implementation in clinical practice is limited because they require both experienced operators and well-equipped laboratories. There is an unmet need: the development of a new simple and effective diagnostic tool that any gastroenterology unit can use in routine diagnostics to ensure a prompt diagnosis in suspected CD patients, who may benefit from a therapy based on gluten-free diet, and to reduce both unnecessary medical investigations and diagnostic delays. In order to simplify and shorten times for the detection of these intestinal antibodies, the study aims to substitute the EMAbiopsy assay with a supernatant obtained quickly after mechanical lysis of fresh intestinal biopsy specimen. The obtained samples will be tested with rapid (about 15 minutes) immune-chromatographic anti-TG2 assay (Rapid Intestinal anti-TG2 Assay).
GLU001 is a first-in-human clinical trial to assess the safety and tolerability of VTP-1000 for adults with celiac disease. This trial will assess VTP-1000 at various dose levels compared to placebo in a single ascending dose (SAD) and multiple ascending dose (MAD) format. Participants will be followed for a short period of time to assess the impact of VTP-1000 on their immune system (Adverse events, reactions in the blood, and physical exam differences). Participants enrolled in the MAD portion of the trial will undergo a gluten challenge to assess the impact exposure to gluten has on participants after administration of VTP-1000.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of the consumption of cookies produced by adding the unripe part of carob fruit, which has high insoluble fiber, polyphenol and antioxidant content, on the oxidative parameters (TAS and MDA), intestinal permeability (zonulin, GIP) and microbiota of celiac patients and to develop new products containing unripe carob fruit for celiac patients in this direction.
This study aims to screen and diagnose coeliac disease in patients with type 2 diabetes and monitor the effect of gluten-free diet on the metabolic status
