Recent Trends in Seroprevalence of Celiac Disease at a Tertiary Care Center

Abstract

It is a retrospective study and all samples received in the laboratory from symptomatic patients for estimation of Immunoglobulin A (IgA) antitissue transglutaminase (IgA anti-tTGA) antibodies are included. Seroprevalence of celiac disease was determined using indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for IgA anti-tTGA. Out of 8787 serum samples received in the laboratory over a period of four years, the seroprevalence of CD was 2.1, 1.62, 0.72, and 3.3%, respectively.
