| 1 | Cardiovascular disease risk factor profiles in children with celiac disease on gluten-free diets显示文摘AIM:To describe the cardiovascular disease(CVD)risk factors in a population of children with celiac disease(CD)on a gluten-free diet(GFD).METHODS:This cross-sectional multicenter study was performed at Schneider Children’s Medical Center of Israel(Petach Tiqva,Israel),and San Paolo Hospital(Milan,Italy).We enrolled 114 CD children in serologic remission,who were on a GFD for at least one year.At enrollment,anthropometric measurements,blood lipids and glucose were assessed,and compared to values at diagnosis.The homeostasis model assessment-estimated insulin resistance was calculated as a measure of insulin resistance.RESULTS:Three or more concomitant CVD risk factors[body mass index,waist circumference,low density lipoprotein(LDL)cholesterol,triglycerides,blood pressure and insulin resistance]were identified in 14%of CD subjects on a GFD.The most common CVD risk factors were high fasting triglycerides(34.8%),elevated blood pressure(29.4%),and high concentrations of calculated LDL cholesterol(24.1%).On a GFD,four children(3.5%)had insulin resistance.Fasting insulin and HOMA-IR were significantly higher in the Italian cohort compared to the Israeli cohort(P<0.001).Children on a GFD had an increased prevalence of borderline LDL cholesterol(24%)when compared to values(10%)at diagnosis(P=0.090).Trends towards increases in overweight(from 8.8%to 11.5%)and obesity(from 5.3%to 8.8%)were seen on a GFD.CONCLUSION:This report of insulin resistance and CVD risk factors in celiac children highlights the importance of CVD screening,and the need for dietary counseling targeting CVD prevention. | Lorenzo Norsa Raanan Shamir Noam Zevit Elvira Verduci Corina Hartman Diana Ghisleni Enrica Riva Marcello Giovannini | 2013 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2013，19，34： | 3 |
