Abstrakt:	A recent study conducted at King Abdulaziz University Hospital focused on the correlation between anti-tissue transglutaminase antibodies and the severity of villous abnormalities in celiac disease. The researchers found that high levels of anti-tTG antibodies can serve as a reliable indicator of villous damage in celiac disease, potentially eliminating the need for invasive biopsy procedures in certain cases. The study highlights the promise of more refined and non-invasive diagnostic approaches for celiac disease, although further research is needed to address the high heterogeneity observed in the studies.
