I was intrigued to speak with Dr. Herbert Brill of William Osler Health System regarding the study he did with other health care professionals on the efficacy of the DGP blood test with children referred for further consultation in screening for celiac disease. The study focussed on children with a negative TTG test and a positive DGP test. The study concluded the test was not useful in screening children for celiac disease in the general population. You can find an article about the study on the William Osler Health System website or at the following link –
This study was brought to my attention by a post from Ellen Bayens of The Celiac Scene. You can subscribe to her newsletter at www.theceliacscene.com. Thanks Ellen!
