Prevalence of celiac disease in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus: a single-center cross-sectional cohort study

Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) may be associated with other autoimmune diseases. Celiac disease (CD), another autoimmune disorder that mainly affects the small intestine, is caused by intolerance to gluten ingestion. CD has a higher prevalence in patients with T1DM than in the general population. However, the prevalence of CD in patients with T1DM in Japan is unknown. This study investigated the prevalence of CD in Japanese patients with T1DM. We included 115 patients with T1DM treated at Hyogo Brain and Heart Center from December 2020 to April 2021. A questionnaire survey about dietary habits and abdominal symptoms was administered, and serum anti-tissue transglutaminase (TTG) antibody titers were determined for all participants. A CD (CDseropositive) diagnosis was based on TTG levels >10 U/ml. Fiftyeight patients (50.4%) had some abdominal symptoms (such as constipation, diarrhea, and abdominal pain). The average TTG-IgA antibody titer was 0.75 ± 0.49 U/ml and negative (< 10 U/ml) in all patients. In conclusion, the prevalence of CD among patients with T1DM at our hospital was 0%. Thus, the prevalence of CD in Japan is low compared to that in other countries, even among patients with T1DM, who are considered to have high comorbidity rates. ©2024 JCBN.
