| Core Tip |
Celiac disease (CD) is an autoimmune disease caused by the ingestion of gluten in genetically susceptible individuals. The global prevalence of CD is approximately 1.4%. An increase in celiac-specific autoantibody levels can lead to varying degrees of damage to the small intestinal mucosa and consequently to various gastrointestinal and systemic symptoms. This study reports the epidemiological, clinical, and pathological characteristics of CD and its association with Helicobacter pylori infection and aims to provide useful information for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of CD. |
