Table 4. Comparing demographic, T1DM, and Marsh stage 1 between TTG IgA positive and negative in normal histology patients*.
Variable | Positive (n=42) | 95% CI | Negative (n=269) | 95% CI | p-value |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Age (yr) | 8.8±4.7 | 7.3–10.2 | 10.0±5.2 | 9.3–10.7 | 0.167 |
Sex (male) | 12 (2.6) | 0.29–1.01 | 121 (45.0) | 1.00–1.19 | 0.046 |
T1DM | 15 (35.7) | 3.70–9.91 | 11 (4.1) | 0.30–0.73 | <0.001 |
Marsh stage 1 | 19 (45.2) | 1.75–5.18 | 48 (17.8) | 0.68–0.93 | <0.001 |
Values are presented as mean±standard deviation or number (%).
T1DM: type 1 diabetes mellitus, TTG: tissue transglutaminase, CI: confidence interval.
*Total n=311 TTG IgA tests were performed with normal biopsy.
