Celiac disease and bowel blockage in children
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at how celiac disease and intussusception (a bowel blockage) are related in children. It wants to see if having celiac disease affects how intussusception occurs or is treated, which could help improve care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child must be between 6 months and 18 years old.
- Your child must have celiac disease, confirmed by a blood test and a small bowel biopsy.
- Your child must have had intussusception (a bowel blockage) confirmed by imaging such as ultrasound or CT.
- Your child must not have other gastrointestinal abnormalities or a history of abdominal surgery.
- Your child must not be on immunosuppressive therapy (medications that weaken the immune system).

This trial tests a keyhole (laparoscopic) surgery to fix a bowel condition called intussusception in children when gentler treatments like enemas haven't worked. The goal is to safely reduce the bowel fold with minimal incisions, which may lead to faster recovery and less pain.
This study looks at how well children with coeliac disease stick to a gluten-free diet and checks their nutrition. It aims to see if their diet is healthy and if they get the right nutrients.
This trial looks at how people with celiac disease transition from childhood into adulthood, using questionnaires. It also includes people without celiac disease for comparison, to help researchers understand similarities and differences during these teen years.
This study looks at adults with intussusception, a condition where part of the intestine slides into another part, causing a blockage. It aims to compare benign (non-cancerous) and malignant (cancerous) causes to improve diagnosis and treatment.
This study collects information from people being checked for celiac disease to better understand the condition and improve diagnosis and treatment.
This study looks at better ways to diagnose celiac disease, a condition where eating gluten damages your small intestine. If you've recently had an endoscopy and a celiac blood test, your information could help improve how doctors diagnose this condition.
