Nevertheless, in some cases, a gluten challenge with a subsequent biopsy may be useful to support the diagnosis, for example in people with a high suspicion for coeliac disease, without a biopsy confirmation, who have negative blood antibodies and are already on a gluten-free diet. [2] Gluten challenge is discouraged before the age of 5 years ...
This condition is known as refractory coeliac disease (RCD), defined as malabsorption due to gluten-related enteropathy (villous atrophy or elevated intraepitheal lymphocytes) after initial or subsequent failure of a strict gluten-free diet (usually 1 year) and after exclusion of any disorder mimicking coeliac disease. [106] [107]
Refractory coeliac disease should not be confused with the persistence of symptoms despite gluten withdrawal [114] caused by transient conditions derived from the intestinal damage, [111] [112] [115] which generally revert or improve several months after starting a gluten-free diet, [116] [117] such as small intestinal bacterial overgrowth ...
Some protocols recommend eating a maximum of 10 g of gluten per day for six weeks. Nevertheless, recent studies have shown that a two-week challenge of 3 g of gluten per day may induce histological and serological abnormalities in most adults with proven celiac disease. [7] [39] This new proposed protocol has shown higher tolerability and ...
The degree of gluten cross contamination tolerated by people with non-celiac gluten sensitivity is not clear but there is some evidence that they can present with symptoms even after consumption of small amounts. [37] Sporadic accidental contaminations with gluten can reactivate movement disorders associated with non-celiac gluten sensitivity. [72]

[1] [2] It is directed against the alpha/beta and gamma (α,β,γ) gliadins. [3] It is also found in a number of patients who are not enteropathic. Some of these patients may have neuropathies that respond favorably to a gluten elimination diet. This is referred to as gluten-sensitive idiopathic neuropathy. [4]
