May support CV monitoring in coeliac disease; leaves open need for prospective trials.
Does coeliac disease increase the risk of cardiovascular disease?
Evidence suggests an increased cardiovascular risk in patients with coeliac disease, warranting careful cardiovascular follow-up.
Bernardi et al. (2022) conducted a review in Coeliac disease and cardiovascular disease. Coeliac disease is associated with an increased cardiovascular risk due to mechanisms of myocardial injury such as chronic malabsorption, intestinal permeability, and immune response.
