Brief Summary

950 / 5.000 Çeviri sonuçları Celiac disease is an autoimmune proximal small bowel disease that develops as a persistent intolerance to gluten-like gluten in cereals, mainly wheat gluten and other cereal proteins such as barley, rye, and oats in genetically susceptible individuals. Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) is a chronic musculoskeletal disease characterized by chronic widespread body pain, fatigue, morning stiffness, subjective swelling, sleep disturbance, intestinal problems, multiple somatic and cognitive problems, especially in the back, neck, shoulders and hips. In terms of intestinal symptoms, very similar findings can be observed between celiac disease and fibromyalgia. For this reason, the presence of celiac disease in FMS patients has been investigated in many studies and its frequency has been found to be high. However, the frequency of FMS in patients with celiac disease is not clear, and an overlooked diagnosis of fibromyalgia may leave many symptoms untreated.
