Impact of Gluten-free Camp on Quality of Life of Children and Adolescents with Celiac Disease

CONCLUSIONS: Children who had CD and attended a week-long gluten-free camp demonstrated improvement in well-being, self-perception, and emotional outlook. The positive effects of camp were more apparent among campers who had been on a GFD for <4 years compared with those who had been on a GFD for ≥4 years, suggesting an adaptation to CD with time. A gluten-free camp that provides an environment of unrestricted foods can at least temporarily alleviate stress and anxiety around food and social interactions. Durability of these observations on return to daily life requires additional study. (Source: PEDIATRICS)

Intestinal dysbiosis and reduced immunoglobulin-coated bacteria associated with coeliac disease in children

Background: Coeliac disease is a chronic intestinal inflammatory disorder caused by an aberrant immune response to dietary gluten proteins in genetically predisposed individuals. Mucosal immune response through IgA secretion constitutes a first line of defence responsible for neutralizing noxious antigens and pathogens. The aim of this study was the characterization of the relationships between immunoglobulin-coated bacteria and bacterial composition in faeces of coeliac disease (CD) patients, untreated and treated with a gluten-free diet (GFD) and healthy controls. Results: IgA-coated faecal bacterial levels were significantly lower in both untreated and treated CD patients than in healthy controls. IgG and IgM-coated bacterial levels were also significantly lower in treated CD patients t...
