Abstract

Background/aims: The aim of this study was to compare the fecal calprotectin concentration in children with newly diagnosed celiac disease, children with celiac disease strictly adhering to a gluten-free diet and healthy controls. We also tried to correlate the fecal calprotectin concentration with the clinical presentation, degree of neutrophilic infiltration and the severity of histopathological injury (Marsh grade) in the small bowel mucosa. Material and Methods: The study included three groups: children with untreated celiac disease, children with treated celiac disease, and healthy controls. Moreover, we obtained a second fecal sample from nine newly diagnosed children when their endomysial antibody became negative after gluten-free diet. Results: Fecal calprotectin concentrations were significantly higher in newly diagnosed celiac patients (n=31) compared to patients on gluten-free diet (n=33) and healthy controls (n=34) (117.2 &#956;g/g (3.2-306) vs. 3.7 &#956;g/g (0.5-58.2) and 9.6 &#956;g/g (1-70), respectively, p<0.001). Patients presenting with gastrointestinal symptoms had higher fecal calprotectin concentration compared to the patients presenting with nongastrointestinal symptoms [142.8 (12.2-306) vs. 79.7 (3.2-243.2) respectively, p=0.04]. Nine newly diagnosed patients gave a second fecal sample after starting gluten-free diet when endomysial antibody became negative. Their fecal calprotectin concentration had decreased from 113.7 &#956;g/g (8.7-295.2) to 4.2 &#956;g/g (0.5-20.7) (p<0.01). Conclusions: Increased fecal calprotectin concentration can be used as a non-invasive marker that might aid in the diagnosis of celiac disease, especially in patients with gastrointestinal presentation. Fecal calprotectin concentration returns to normal on a strict gluten-free diet. Fecal calprotectin may be used as a marker of diet adherence and improvement in gastrointestinal inflammation in children with celiac disease. Additionally, it may be used for the differentiation of celiac disease from functional disorders of the gastrointestinal system.

Özet

Amaç: Bu calışmanın amacı yeni tanı ve diet altındaki colyak hastaları ile sa.lıklı cocuklardaki fekal kalprotektin miktarını karşı laştırmaktır. Ayrıca histopatolojik evre (Marsh evresi) ve notrofilik infiltrasyon derecesi ile de fekal kalprotektin oranı karşılaştı- rıldı. Gereç ve Yöntem: Calışma, yeni tanı, glutensiz diet altındaki hastalar ve sa.lıklı kontrol grubu olmak uzeri 3 grubu icermektedir. Ayrıca calışma boyunca glutensiz diet ile serolojisi negatişeşen 9 hastada fekal kalprotektin miktarı tekrar calışıldı. Bulgular: Fekal kalprotektin oranı yeni tanı colyak hastalarında (n=31), diet altındaki hastalara (n=33) ve sa.lıklı kontrol grubuna (n=34) gore yuksek saptandı (sırasıyla 117,2 μg/g (3.2-306), 3.7 μg/g (0.5-58.2) ve 9.6 μg/g (1-70), p<0.001). Gastrointestinal semptomu olan hastalarda di.er gastrointestinal semptomu olmayan hastalara gore yuksek saptandı [142.8 (12.2-306) ve 79.7 (3.2- 243.2), p=0.04]. Diet ile serolojisi negatişeşen 9 hastada fekal kalprotektin konsantrasyonun azalmış oldu.u saptandı; 113.7 μg/g (8.7-295.2)'den 4.2 μg/g (0.5-20.7)'ye (p<0.01). Sonuç: Artmış dışkı fekal kalprotektin miktarı colyak hastalı.ında non-invazif yardı mcı tanı yontemi olarak kullanılabilir. Glutensiz diyet tedavisi ile fekal kalprotektin duzeyinin normale dondu.u gorulmektedir. Fekal kalprotektin bir belirtec olarak colyak hastalarının diyete uyumunun ve bunun gostergesi olan gastrointestinal inşamasyonun azalmasını gostermede yararlıdır. Ek olarak; colyak hastalı.ını gastrointestinal sistemin fonksiyonel hastalıklarından ayırmada da kullanılabilir.
