Abstract
Coeliac disease was first reported in India in the 1960s. Over the last decade, coeliac disease
has been increasingly recognized and is considered to have a significant presence
in the country. The Authors report from an on-going study where in a series of 231 children
with chronic diarrhoea, abdominal distension, and growth failure the rapid test (Biocard
POC) was performed. The results were compared to anti-endomisium (EMA) antibodies and
duodenal biopsy. The preliminary analysis of the study so far shows that the Biocard POC
test has good specificity but it has a high false negative rate. However, it does appear that POC-testing is a useful adjunct to formal diagnostic testing, although it must be used in a setting that has access to specialized facilities where the diagnosis can be confirmed
