pubmed:abstractText |
Intestinal biopsy is required for a diagnosis of celiac disease (CD). The aim of this study was to assess diagnostic accuracy of transglutaminase antibodies (TGA) in comparison and in association with that of antiemdomysial antibodies (AEA), calculating the post-test odds of having the disease, to verify whether some patients might avoid undergoing intestinal biopsy for a diagnosis of CD.
