Absolute risk of malignancies until the age of 80 years by current age or age at time of celiac disease (CD) diagnosis. The risks present the risk for developing the malignancy of interest, i.e. T-cell lymphoma ((a) and (b)), small bowel adenocarcinoma ((c) and (d)) and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) (2(e) and (f)), by age 80 years for patients cancer free and diagnosed with CD at age 50, 55, etc. years. As reference, we added the risk for colorectal carcinoma at current age in the general population. Example: The risk of being diagnosed with a T-cell lymphoma from CD diagnosis until the age of 80 years (including synchronous diagnosis) for a male when CD is diagnosed at the age of 60 is 3.6% (95% confidence interval 2.4%–5.3%). The risk for a male without CD developing a T-cell lymphoma between ages 60 and 80 years is 0.1%. The risk for a male from the general population developing colorectal adenocarcinoma between the age of 60 to 80 years is 5.1%.
