Health‐related quality of life in Spanish children with coeliac disease
Abstract
Objectives The aim of the study was to assess health-related quality of life (HRQOL) using the Coeliac Disease Dutch Questionnaire (CDDUX) in Spanish children with coeliac disease. Methods The CDDUX was cross-culturally adapted according to international consensus guidelines. HRQOL was assessed in coeliac members of the Madrid Coeliac Association ages 8 to 18 years using the adapted CDDUX. Cronbach α coefficient was determined as a measure of intraquestionnaire reliability and intraclass correlation coefficients as a measure of reliability between scores awarded by children and parents. Demographic and clinical variables associated with HRQOL were also assessed. Results A total of 1602 children of 3122 registered Madrid Coeliac Association members ages 8 to 18 years were invited to participate. The questionnaire was completed by 480 families (30%): 214 only by parents, 214 by parents and their children, and 52 only by children. Cronbach α coefficient for the total score for parents was 0.90, and for children 0.88 (0.75-0.90 by scales). Mean total (standard deviation [SD]) HRQOL scores in children and parents were 55.5 (SD 12.7) and 53.89 (SD 12.19), respectively, with no differences detected in paired comparisons between the 2 groups. Significantly worse HRQOL scores were recorded in children showing a nonclassical clinical presentation, in those not adhering to treatment and in those reporting difficulties in following the diet. Conclusions The CDDUX questionnaire emerged as…

Nine studies found similar health-related quality of life in children with celiac disease as in control children.
“Nine of these studies found similar HRQOL in children with CD as in control children (4, 82, 95, 96, 99, 100, 102, 103, 106).”

Five of six studies using celiac disease-specific health-related quality of life questionnaires found that the health-related quality of life of children and adolescents with celiac disease was poor or neutral.
“However, five of the six studies using CD-specific HRQOL questionnaires (CDDUX, CDQL, CDQOL Scale-KINDL, CDPQOL) found that the HRQOL of children and adolescents with CD was poor or neutral (82, 96, 100, 105, 109).”

Parents gave lower health-related quality of life scores compared to their children.
“Parents gave lower HRQOL scores as compared to their children (96, 97).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
