Autoantibodies to tissue transglutaminase as predictors of celiac disease  Walburga Dieterich, Eberhardt Laag, Heike Schöpper, Umberto Volta, Anne Ferguson, Helen Gillett, Ernst Otto Riecken, Detlef Schuppan  Gastroenterology  Volume 115, Issue 6, Pages (December 1998) DOI: /S (98) Copyright © 1998 American Gastroenterological Association Terms and Conditions

2 Fig. 1 Semilogarithmic plot of the correlation between IgA anti-tTG and EMA scores of 106 patients with biopsy-proven celiac disease consuming a normal diet, 43 celiac patients after a gluten-free diet, and 114 controls. The median (25/75 percentiles) of IgA anti-tTG relative to EMA were as follows: EMA (0), 4 (2/7); EMA (1), 18 (17/23); EMA (2), 105 (43/210); EMA (3), 180 (117/363); EMA (4), 557 (191/762); and EMA (5), 637 (244/1193). r = 0.862; P < Gastroenterology  , DOI: ( /S (98) ) Copyright © 1998 American Gastroenterological Association Terms and Conditions

3 Fig. 2 Semilogarithmic plot of IgA anti-tTG titers of 106 celiac patients on a normal diet (cd), 43 celiac patients after a gluten-free diet (gfd), and of 114 controls (ctr), with the following medians (25/75 percentiles): cd, 199 (118/671); cd/gfd, 18 (5/48); and ctr, 4 (2/7). Differences between groups were significant (P < 0.001). Gastroenterology  , DOI: ( /S (98) ) Copyright © 1998 American Gastroenterological Association Terms and Conditions
