Abstract
Recent reports suggest severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infections may increase the risk of celiac disease autoimmunity. This study aims to evaluate potential associations between coronavirus disease 2019 infection and tissue transglutaminase autoantibodies (TGA) immunoglobulin A. From 2020 to 2021, cross-sectional screening for SARS-CoV-2 antibodies and TGA was offered to 4,717 children in Colorado through the Autoimmunity Screening for Kids study. Multivariable logistic regression assessed association between previous SARS-CoV-2 infection and TGA positivity. Previous SARS-CoV-2 infection was not associated with TGA positivity (odds ratio 1.02, 95% confidence interval 0.63-1.59; P = 0.95). In this large-scale analysis, previous SARS-CoV-2 infection was not associated with celiac disease autoimmunity in Colorado children.
