TI  - Guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of celiac disease in children: 
      recommendations of the North American Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, 
      Hepatology and Nutrition.

AB  - Celiac disease is an immune-mediated enteropathy caused by a permanent 
      sensitivity to gluten in genetically susceptible individuals. It occurs in 
      children and adolescents with gastrointestinal symptoms, dermatitis 
      herpetiformis, dental enamel defects, osteoporosis, short stature, delayed 
      puberty and persistent iron deficiency anemia and in asymptomatic individuals 
      with type 1 diabetes, Down syndrome, Turner syndrome, Williams syndrome, 
      selective immunoglobulin (Ig)A deficiency and first degree relatives of 
      individuals with celiac disease. The Celiac Disease Guideline Committee of the 
      North American Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition 
      has formulated a clinical practice guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of 
      pediatric celiac disease based on an integration of a systematic review of the 
      medical literature combined with expert opinion. The Committee examined the 
      indications for testing, the value of serological tests, human leukocyte antigen 
      (HLA) typing and histopathology and the treatment and monitoring of children with 
      celiac disease. It is recommended that children and adolescents with symptoms of 
      celiac disease or an increased risk for celiac disease have a blood test for 
      antibody to tissue transglutaminase (TTG), that those with an elevated TTG be 
      referred to a pediatric gastroenterologist for an intestinal biopsy and that 
      those with the characteristics of celiac disease on intestinal histopathology be 
      treated with a strict gluten-free diet. This document represents the official 
      recommendations of the North American Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, 
      Hepatology and Nutrition on the diagnosis and treatment of celiac disease in 
      children and adolescents.
