Prevalence and Clinical Profile of Celiac Disease in Yemeni Children: A Five-Year Retrospective Study at Al-Sabeen Hospital

CD prevalence in Yemeni children exceeds the global average, with malnutrition being a major comorbidity linked to socioeconomic and environmental factors. Targeted screening, biopsy-confirmed diagnosis for ambiguous cases, and nutritional interventions are critical in conflict-affected settings such as Yemen. Future multicenter studies with genetic testing are recommended to enhance our understanding and management.

Abstract

CD prevalence in Yemeni children exceeds the global average, with malnutrition being a major comorbidity linked to socioeconomic and environmental factors. Targeted screening, biopsy-confirmed diagnosis for ambiguous cases, and nutritional interventions are critical in conflict-affected settings such as Yemen. Future multicenter studies with genetic testing are recommended to enhance our understanding and management.
