Celiac Disease and Sensitization to Wheat, Rye, and Barley: Should We Be Concerned?

Conclusion: In conclusion, the frequency of sensitization to wheat, rye, barley, and malt in CD patients was 4, 10.8, 5.4, and 2.7%, respectively. Therefore, to ensure that cutaneous and respiratory contact with wheat is safe, we advise patients with CD to investigate their sensitivity to wheat, rye, and barley because not all patients with CD are allergic to these cereals.Int Arch Allergy Immunol
