Compliance with gluten-free diet in a selected group of celiac children in the Slovak Republic.

CONCLUSIONS: Our study confirmed important factors influencing adherence to the GF diet, which are connected to the symptoms and consequences of CD. The assessment of parents' opinions and burden on the families of children with celiac disease should be also reflected in the evaluation of patient's status. Important is also the role of parents in order to facilitate and support clinical interventions and prevention of CD. PMID: 30817868 [PubMed - in process]
