A systematic review and meta‐analysis of the prevalence and odds of eating disorders in patients with celiac disease and vice‐versa

Abstract

Objectives

In the present systematic review and meta-analysis study, we aimed to review studies that assessed the prevalence and risk of eating disorders (EDs) in patients with celiac disease (CD) and vice-versa.

Method

We conducted a systematic search in PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science for studies that assessed the prevalence and risk of AN in patients with CD and vice-versa. Joanna Briggs Institute tools were used for critical appraisal. The STATA software was used for the meta-analysis of the random-effect model.

Results

In this study, 23 observational studies were included. The results of the meta-analysis indicated that the pooled prevalence of EDs and bulimia nervosa in patients with CD was 8.88% [95% CI: 6.4, 11.7] and 7.26% [95% CI: 0.23, 21.57], respectively. Moreover, the risk of anorexia nervosa in patients with CD was significantly higher than in the healthy population (relative risk [RR]: 1.48 [95% CI: 1.32, 1.64]). The rates of CD in patients with AN and EDs were 0.96% [95% CI: 0.15, 2.31] and 0.90% [95% CI: 0.56, 1.31], respectively. Moreover, the overall risk of CD in patients with AN was significantly higher compared with healthy adults (RR: 2.35 [95% CI: 1.27–3.44]).

Discussion

The result of the present meta-analysis showed the high prevalence of EDs in patients with CD. Moreover, there was a significant bidirectional association between CD and EDs.

Resumen

Objetivos

En el presente estudio de revisión sistemática y metanálisis, nuestro objetivo fue revisar los estudios que evaluaron la prevalencia y el riesgo de trastornos alimentarios (TCA) en pacientes con enfermedad celíaca (EC) y viceversa.

Métodos

Realizamos una búsqueda sistemática en PubMed, Embase, Scopus y Web of Science de estudios que evaluaran la prevalencia y el riesgo de AN en pacientes con EC y viceversa. Se utilizaron herramientas del Instituto Joanna Briggs (JBI) para la evaluación crítica. Se utilizó el software STATA para el metanálisis del modelo de efectos aleatorios.

Resultados

En este estudio se incluyeron veintitrés estudios observacionales. Los resultados del metanálisis indicaron que la prevalencia combinada de TCA y bulimia nerviosa (BN) en pacientes con EC fue del 8,88% [IC del 95%: 6,4; 11,7] y 7,26% [IC del 95%: 0,23; 21,57] respectivamente. Además, el riesgo de anorexia nerviosa (AN) en pacientes con EC fue significativamente mayor que en la población sana (RR: 1,48 [IC 95%: 1,32, 1,64]). Las tasas de EC en pacientes con AN y DE fueron 0,96% [IC del 95%: 0,15, 2,31] y 0,90% [IC del 95%: 0,56, 1,31] respectivamente. Además, el riesgo global de EC en pacientes con AN fue significativamente mayor en comparación con adultos sanos (RR: 2,35 [IC 95%: 1,27-3,44]).

Discusión

El resultado del presente metaanálisis mostró la alta prevalencia de TCA en pacientes con EC. Además, hubo una asociación bidireccional significativa entre la enfermedad celíaca y los trastornos alimentarios.
