Prospective study assesses coeliac disease prevalence in irritable bowel syndrome patients, indicating important health implications.
Our study aims to assess the prevalence of coeliac disease (CD) among patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), a recognised high-risk group for CD, in Rajasthan. We found 9/287 consecutive adult IBS patients seropositive or with biopsy-confirmed CD. Lower haemoglobin levels were independently associated with CD.
