Figure 1. Flow chart of the present study. Eu-tTG = IgA-class tissue transglutaminase antibody (Eu-tTG® umana IgA); Celikey tTG = IgA-class tissue transglutaminase antibody (Celikey® Tissue Transglutaminase IgA Antibody Assay); EMA = immunoglobulin A (IgA)-class endomysial antibody; a = Not including non-participants in the primary study (n=783) or participants with no sera available for the purposes of the current study in 2001 (n=227); b = Cases with previous coeliac disease or dermatitis herpetiformis diagnosis (n=3).
