Popis: Descriptive reports of liver involvement in celiac disease (CD) are sparse, and the effect of a strict gluten-free diet (GFD) on the course of liver injury is also poorly understood. We conducted a study on 94 adult patients with CD and found that 39 of them were having chronic liver disease as well. We further followed patients of 'CD with CLD' with strict Gluten-free diet (GFD) for six months.We screened 94 patients of CD for CLD and found 39 patients to have CLD as well. We further followed these 39 patients of 'CD with CLD' for six month with strict gluten-free diet. Follow up was done in terms of Child Pugh score. We recorded their clinical as well as laboratory findings after 1 month, 3 months and 6 months and compared them with those at the time of recruitment.The liver involvement was found in 39(41.5%) out of 94 patients celiac disease. Mean Child-Pugh score on admission was 10.22±1.09 and on first follow-up mean Child-Pugh score was 7.38±1.47 was found to be statistically highly significant (p0.001) Mean Child-Pugh score on admission was 10.15±1.09 and on second follow-up 7.33±1.33 respectively and was statistically highly significant (p0.001) Mean Child-Pugh score on admission was 10.12±1.09 and on third follow-up mean Child-Pugh score was 6.31±0.93 respectively was statistically highly significant (p0.001).
