Abstract:
Celiac disease(CD) is a chronic intestinal malabsorption syndrome by ingestion of wheat bran material in a susceptible population which is immune-mediated.At present,the incidence of CD in North America and Europe has reached about 1%-3%,the disease is considered to be very rare in China,but now some studies have confirmed the existence of the disease.Children suffering from CD can lead to failure in growth and development,and patients can be significantly improved by gluten-free diet.Therefore,early diagnosis and timely treatment is great significance.
