Table 5:
6 months | 12 months | 24 months | |
---|---|---|---|
Celiac Symptom Index (CSI)1 | −0.35* | −0.15 | −0.006 |
Celiac Diet Adherence Test (CDAT)2,3 | −0.26* | −0.25* | −0.17 |
TTG IgA level (MULN) | 0.002 | 0.04 | −0.005 |
P< 0.01.
CSI scores > 45 are associated with poorer adherence and lower quality of life (possible score range 16 to 80);
Persons not restricting gluten were considered non-adherent and CDAT scores were not calculated;
CDAT scores ≤ 13 are associated with adequate adherence (possible score range 7 to 35). tTG tissue transglutaminase antibody, MULN multiples upper limit of normal.
