We searched PubMed for the period Jan 1, 1900 to Jan 31, 2011. Individual co-authors then examined papers deemed most relevant. Where the phrase “coeliac disease” is part of the definition, we searched PubMed for the relevant term and coeliac disease (British and American spelling). For example, “silent coeliac disease”[All Fields] OR “silent coeliac disease”[All Fields] AND (“1900/01/01”[PDAT]: “2011/01/31”[PDAT])

For these terms, our literature review was entirely based on expert consensus of the literature because it was beyond the scope of this paper to review all papers identified through PubMed (or as in the case of “paediatric classical CD” there were no hits).

§

We searched both “Coeliac disease autoimmunity” and “coeliac autoimmunity” (both British and American spelling)

A search for “gluten and antibodies” yielded 2,529 hits.

Although we discourage the use of “CD serology”, we have defined this term in the paper.
