The CDF Clinical Trial Finder will make it easier for patients with celiac disease and non-celiac gluten/wheat sensitivity to enroll in clinical trials, enabling patients to better engage with medical research and accelerate development of drugs and treatments.

A very commonly and hotly discussed topic in the celiac disease community is the determination of whom to screen for the disease and when. It is widely understood that celiac disease is under-diagnosed, especially since some individuals remain without symptoms for a long period of time. Blanket screening, however, seems inefficient; so where is the sweet spot for testing?

For decades, Celiac Disease Foundation (CDF) has advocated for more widespread diagnostic testing for symptomatic celiac disease patients and their first-degree family members (parent, child, sibling) to ease much of the needless suffering caused by the disease.

This month, Celiac Disease Foundation launched the Pediatric and Adult Celiac Disease Follow-up Checklists. Based upon recommendations from the world’s leading medical experts, the Follow-Up Checklists specify best practices in post-diagnosis celiac disease management to assure optimal patient care.

The considerable overlap between celiac disease and type 1 diabetes (T1D) is well known; the same can be said of celiac disease and autoimmune thyroid disease (ATD). The question remains, do individuals (notably, children) with celiac disease need to be routinely screened for development of these other conditions?

A team of pediatric medical experts convened at the Children’s National Health Center in Washington, D.C. in January 2013 with a single, ambitious goal – to cull from over 40 years of publications and studies relating to celiac disease in children, a list of best practices for the diagnosis, treatment, and management of this potentially devastating disease.
