NIH Guide: PREVALENCE AND DIAGNOSIS OF CELIAC DISEASE

[Guest guest]

Celiac disease is commonly diagnosed in Western

Europe, but is rarely identified in the United States, even among persons

descended from European immigrants. The possible reasons for this

difference

in clinical recognition include: U.S. physicians may often fail to detect

typical celiac disease; celiac disease may be common but causes atypical or

mild symptoms; or the disease may actually be uncommon due to the influence

of

unknown environmental factors.

Thank you for reading my mind, a! It's so much easier for me to sit back and

read what you find, LOL.

Muchas gracias, partner.
