UNIVERSITY RESEARCHERS SEEK PARTICIPANTS WITH CELIAC DISEASE

Individuals that have been diagnosed with Celiac Disease are being sought for a study to identify factors associated with the development of Celiac Disease.  The goal of the study is to find genes that may predispose individuals and their relatives to develop the condition.  The study has been funded by a grant from the National Institutes of Health. 

Individuals eligible to participate in this study must have been diagnosed with celiac sprue through a small intestinal biopsy AND either a positive transglutaminase (tTG) antibody test or a positive endomysial (EMA) antibody test. Spouses may also be eligible to participate. 

Participants will be asked to provide a blood sample and some medical, diet, and family history information. There is no cost to participate.  Necessary materials to have the blood drawn by the individual's doctor, clinic, or lab will be sent.  We will pay for the cost of the blood draw, as well as over-night shipping to our lab. Participants will receive a free antibody test for screening of celiac disease.

For further information, please contact Maryam Mousavi, Study Manager, University of California, Irvine at (949) 824-5603 or toll-free at (866) 356-9962, or e-mail: mmousavi@uci.edu.

A recent post on a celiac list serv regarding a question about Celiac Awareness Month:

In response to the question about May as Celiac Awareness month -- the overwhelming majority of celiac organizations and all of the Celiac Research Centers in the United States recognize May as National Celiac Disease Awareness Month.

Internationally, the Association of European Coeliac Societies recognizes Celiac Disease in May and celiac events are held throughout the world to raise awareness.  (The association represents 26 countries of the EU - including Andorra, Austria,Belgium, Croatia, CzechRepublic, Denmark,Finland, France, Germany,Greece, Hungary, Ireland,Italy, Luxembourg, Malta,Netherlands, Norway, Portugal,Romania, Russia, Slovakia,Slovenia, Spain, Sweden,Switzerland, and UK). 

The May observance in the United States was chosen to coincide with our international colleagues.  It was also done in recognition of the many other medical conditions related to celiac disease that are observed in May.  Celiac disease is still relatively unknown and being able to draw connections between these medical conditions and celiac disease helps to elevate its importance and enhance awareness.  Some of the other May health observances include:

Digestive Diseases Awareness Month
Digestive Diseases Week
Food Allergy Awareness Month
Food Allergy Week
National Arthritis Month
National Osteoporosis Awareness and Prevention Month Women's Health Week and Women's Health Check-up day

Organizations, Research Centers, and Companies supporting the May observance:

Celiac Disease Foundation
Gluten Intolerance Group
Westchester Celiac Sprue Support Group
American Celiac Disease Alliance

National Foundation for Celiac Awareness University of Maryland Center for Celiac Research University of Chicago Celiac Disease Program Celiac Disease Center at Columbia University Wm. K. Warren Celiac Disease Research Center UC San Diego Bob & Ruth's Gluten-Free Dining & Travel Club Ener-G Foods, Inc.

Enjoy Life Brands

It’s worth noting that October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.  It is extremely difficult for any condition, to compete for attention at that time.  And since recognition and attention are key to raising awareness, May is a better fit.

Congresswoman Nita Lowey (NY) introduced legislation in 2004, 2006, and again, this year (H.Con.Res. 70) which emphasizes the designation of May as National Celiac Disease Awareness Month. That legislation now has 29 cosponsors and more are expected once Congress returns later this month.

I hope this helps clarify why May is supported and endorsed as National Celiac Disease Awareness Month.

I have some exciting results from the efforts to include more GF options on campus at Texas A&M University, College Station. As it turns out, Chef Arthur is very excited about catering more to the GF population. He has informed us of a great new project he is personally starting in Sbisa Dining Hall. From November 12th to December 24th 2007, there will be a new program called ”Fall Crop” in Sbisa which will have GF entrees as well as vegan and vegetarian options. Chef Arthur will personally be cooking lunch and dinner. We really want to get the word out about this program. If we can get a large response, it will help fuel the fire for more GF entrees in the future.

If you know anyone at A&M tell them to go to Sbisa starting Monday and try out the new "Fall Crop." Also - lets all thank Mr. Gary Arthur for his efforts. His email address is cheffer1@tamu.edu.
