Patients identified by serologic screening are indicated in bold-face type. BMI = body mass index (a measure of weight in kilograms divided by the square of height in meters); CD = celiac disease; EMA = endomysial antibody; HbAlc = hemoglobin Alc; tTg = tissue transglutaminase.
Biopsy positive refers to histologic features of CD observed on biopsy.
Mean value 6 months before diagnosis of CD.
Developed biopsy-confirmed dermatitis herpetiformis. Cases 8 through 11 were clinically discovered with use of small bowel biopsy as the primary means of diagnosis and are included for completeness.
