NCT ID NCT07157137

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This study looks at 140 children with celiac disease, ages 2 to 18, who have been on a gluten-free diet for at least 6 months. Researchers will compare a questionnaire and rapid urine/stool tests to standard blood tests to see which methods best measure diet adherence. The goal is to find easier ways to monitor gluten exposure and improve nutritional health in these children.
