Objective. determine if there are symptoms of depression and thus the impairment of the emotional functioning of children with celiac disease in relation to healthy children of the same age Methods. The research was conducted as a prospective, observational study. The study group consisted of N 116 subjects (children and adolescents) aged 5-18 years who were diagnosed with celiac disease. The control group consisted of the same number of healthy children who met the basic criteria of "matching" with the examined group according to age and gender. To assess emotional functioning and detect symptoms of depression Mood and Feelings Questionnaire Short - MFQ -Child was used. Results. In the gruoup of children with celiac disease there is a statistically significant greater preference for depression (p <0.001). Conclusion. In children and adolescents with a diagnosis of celiac disease, it is necessary to keep in mind the psychological dimension of the disease. A gluten-free diet can create problems in the acceptance of a child by its peers. In children and adolescents with a diagnosis of celiac disease a state of psychological stress can also occur, mainly due to the discomfort caused by a different diet compared to their peers. Accepting the disease and successfully managing a gluten-free diet requires a team approach.

Introduction: Celiac disease is an autoimmune inflammatory disorder ofsmall intestine precipitated by ingestion of gluten. Clinical and histological improvement occurs on withdrawal of glutenfrom the diet. Objectives: The present study were to identify the trace mineral deficiency in newly diagnosed celiacchildren and to assess how far these deficiencies are corrected after strict gluten free diet. The study also assessedthe nutritional status of celiac children compared to the healthy controls before and after Gluten Free Diet. Setting:Department of Pediatrics Punjab Medical College Faisalabad. Duration: January 2004 to March 2005. Study Design:Interventional case control study. Patients and Methods: 22 children aged 2 to 14 years diagnosed as Celiac diseaseon the basis of typical intestinal biopsy findings were included. 15 healthy children served as controls. Anthropometricmeasurements and serum Zinc Copper Magnesium and Iron along with albumin were done for both patients andcontrols initially and repeated after 6 months while patients were receiving strict GFD and controls receiving normaldiet. The general linear model was used for the analysis of variance using SPSS (2004). Results: Serum Zinc wasbelow the reference range in 68%. Serum copper and Magnesium in 31%, Iron in 95%and albumin in 59% of thepatients. There was a statistically significant increase in serum zinc, iron and magnesium levels (p value, < 0 05) whileserum copper and albumin did not show any significant rise after Gluten free diet. Control group did not show any significant change in their trace mineral levels .Celiac patients gained more weight (mean 4.47 versus 2.91 cm) andheight (3.34cm versus 1.022 cm) as compared to the control group. Conclusion: Celiac children receiving strict Glutenfree diet and showing good clinical response probably do not need mineral supplementation.

Food Record

The current study assesses whether the use of a gluten-free diet (GFD) is sufficient for maintaining correct iron status in children with celiac disease (CD). The study included 101 children. The celiac group (n = 68) included children with CD, with long (> 6 months) (n = 47) or recent (< 6 months) (n = 21) adherence to a GFD. The control group (n = 43) included healthy children. Dietary assessment was performed by a food frequency questionnaire and a 3-day food record. Celiac children had lower iron intake than controls, especially at the beginning of GFD (p < 0.01). The group CD-GFD >6 months showed a higher intake of cobalamin, meat derivatives and fish compared to that of CD-GFD <6 months (all, p < 0.05). The control group showed a higher consumption of folate, iron, magnesium, selenium and meat derivatives than that of children CD-GFD >6 months (all, p < 0.05). Control children also showed a higher consumption of folate and iron compared to that of children CD-GFD <6 months (both, p < 0.05). The diet of celiac children was nutritionally less balanced than that of the control. Participation of dietitians is necessary in the management of CD to guide the GFD as well as assess the inclusion of iron supplementation and other micronutrients that may be deficient.

The Impact

The primary and proven therapy, in cases of celiac disease (CD), is a rigorous gluten-free diet (GFD). However, there are reports of its negative effects in the form of nutritional deficiencies, obesity, and adverse changes in body composition. The study aimed to assess the impact of a GFD on the body composition of children with CD. In a case-controlled study (n = 41; mean age 10.81 y; SD = 3.96) children with CD, in various stages of treatment, underwent medical assessment. The control group consisted of healthy children and adolescents, strictly matched for gender and age in a 1:1 case-control manner. More than half of the examined children (n = 26) followed a GFD. CD children had significantly higher mean values of the fat free mass (FFM% = 80.68 vs. 76.66, p = 0.015), and total body water (TBW% = 65.22 vs. 60.47, p = 0.012), and lower mean values of the fat mass (FM% = 19.32 vs. 23.34, p = 0.015). Children who were on a GFD presented slightly higher, but not statistically significant, mean values of FM and FFM, than children who did not follow dietary recommendations (FM [kg] = 7.48 vs. 5.24, p = 0.064; FM% = 20.81 vs. 16.73, p = 0.087; FFM [kg] = 28.19 vs. 22.62, p = 0.110). After minimum one year of a GFD, CD children showed significantly higher values of FFM [kg] (p = 0.001), muscle mass (MM) [kg] (p < 0.001), TBW [L] (p < 0.001) and body cell mass (BCM) [kg] (p < 0.001). Furthermore, CD children who were on a GFD presented a significantly higher increase in weight (p = 0.034) and body mass index (BMI) (p = 0.021). The children adhering to a GFD demonstrate a tendency towards higher indices of selected body composition components.

Anthropometric Parameters

This review compiled anthropometric data from 29 original articles, published between 1995 and 2015, corresponding to a total sample of 6368 celiac disease subjects. Body mass index was the main parameter for measuring anthropometry (82.1%), followed by body mass (78.6%), body fat (51.7%), bone mineral density and bone mineral content (46.4%), and fat-free mass (44.8%). The main evaluation method was dual x-ray absorptiometry (83.3%), followed by bioimpedance (16.6%), skinfold thickness (16.6%), and isotope dilution (5.5%). This compilation suggests that celiac disease patients without a gluten-free diet (WGFD) and celiac disease patients with a gluten-free diet (GFD) show a lower body mass than the control group, with inconclusive data about WGFD versus GFD. Body mass index is lower in WGFD and GFD compared to control group, and is lower in WGFD compared to GFD. We observed lower values of FM and FFM in WGFD and GFD versus the control group. No difference was found between WGFD versus GFD. BMD and BMC are lower in WGFD versus GFD and GFD versus the control group, with inconclusive data about WGFD versus GFD. The findings of this review suggest that celiac disease patients must be periodically evaluated through anthropometric parameters, since the pathology has the potential to modulate such values even in a gluten-free diet, with these variables reflecting their healthy status. In parallel, the screening of different anthropometric assessment methodologies can provide support for more accurate evaluations by scientists and clinical professionals who work with celiac disease patients.

Objectives: Probiotics are alive organisms which confer health benefit whentaken at an appropriate dosage. This study was done to determine the efficacy of probiotics indecreasing the frequency of diarrhea in children with celiac disease. Study Design: Randomizedcontrolled trial. Setting: Department of Pediatrics/DHQ Allied Hospital, Faisalabad. Period:November 2011 to October 2012. Methods: Newly diagnosed patients with CD having diarrheawere included by consecutive non-probability sampling. Patients were randomized in twogroups using computer generated numbers. One group was given probiotic along with glutenfree diet while other was only prescribed gluten free diet. Reduction in frequency of diarrhea intwo groups was compared after a period of 28 days. Results: A total of 116 cases (58 in eachgroup) were enrolled. Mean age was 9.11 years. The groups were similar in age and gender ofpatients. Comparison of efficacy of probiotics in children with CD was done with control groupwhich revealed reduction in stools frequency to less than half in 86.21% (n=50) in probioticgroup but only 62.07% (n=36) in control group. P-value was 0.00015 which shows a highlysignificant difference in both groups. Conclusion: Probiotics in addition to gluten free diet arehighly effective in reducing the frequency of diarrhea in newly diagnosed patients with CD, incomparison with gluten free diet alone.

The purpose of the study: analysis of medical and social problems and factors affecting the availability and compliance of a gluten-free diet, based on a survey of parents of children with celiac disease living in southern Russia. Purpose of the Study: Analysis of the medical and social problems and factors affecting the availability and adherence to the gluten-free diet based on the results of the questioning survey of the parents of children with celiac disease that are residents of the south of Russia. Children Characteristics and Study Methods. The study include 200 families that bring up the children with the celiac disease at the ages from 10 months to 18 years. The patients included 116 (58%) girls and 84 (42%) boys. The medical and social issues were studied using the developed questionnaire consisting of the open questions and intended as self-administered by the patient parents. Results. 87% of the families noted the significant difficulties in adhering to the diet, 75% were forced to refuse to travel with children, 56% of the surveyed were unable to visit the public spaces, restaurants, and 90% indicated the impossibility and difficulties in purchase of the gluten-free products. The strict adherence to the diet at school age is much worse. The main reasons for the deliberate non- adherence to the gluten-free diet are the high cost of food, lack of funds to purchase it. The patient families spend RUB 8,000– 9,000 per month in average to purchase the gluten-free products. There is a great demand of patients for the imported products with the relevant quality marks. The psychological symptoms were noted in the patients with celiac disease in response to the introduction of the gluten-free diet, manifested by the depression, aggression, irritability, high level of the anxiety. Conclusion. The main difficulties faced by the families that bring up the children and adolescents with the celiac disease include the social and psychological maladjustment of the patients, reduced finances, search and purchase of the high-quality gluten-free products and the necessity to adapt the child and family members to the dietary habits.
