RESUMEN
La enfermedad por coronavirus (COVID-19) es altamente contagiosa y las medidas de confinamiento dinámico han demostrado que reducen significativamente el número de contagios, sin embargo, pueden alterar la disponibilidad de alimentos afectando la adherencia a la dieta libre de gluten (DLG) y la calidad de vida (CV) en la enfermedad celiaca (EC). El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar los factores que limitan, la adherencia a la dieta libre de gluten y la calidad de vida en personas con enfermedad celiaca en periodo de pandemia por COVID-19. Métodos Se aplicaron encuestas on-line respecto a adherencia a la DLG, CV y acerca de los factores que han generado dificultad para llevar una DLG en este escenario. Resultados Se analizaron 216 encuestas de enfermos celiacos, mayores de 15 años, de los cuales un 91% eran mujeres con un promedio de edad de 36 + 10,7 años y con 5,8 + 6,0 años de enfermedad. El 56,48% tenía una excelente adherencia a la DLG y un 43,52% una buena CV. El costo elevado de los alimentos sin gluten fue la pregunta con mayor porcentaje de respuesta, asociándose con regular y mala adherencia a la DLG (valor p=0,001) y con pobre CV (valor p=0,023). Conclusión En periodo de pandemia por COVID-19, el costo de los alimentos se asocia con adherencia regular y mala a la DLG y con pobre CV(AU)
ABSTRACT
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is highly contagious and dynamic confinement measures have shown to significantly reduce the number of infections, however, they can alter the availability of food, affecting adherence to a gluten-free diet (GFD) and quality of life (QoL) in celiac disease (CD). The objective of this study was to evaluate the limiting factors, adherence to a gluten-free diet and quality of life in people with celiac disease in a COVID-19 pandemic period. Methods. On-line surveys were applied regarding adherence to the GFD, CV, and factors that have generated difficulty in carrying out a GFD in this setting. Results. 216 surveys of celiac patients over 15 years of age were analyzed, of which 91% were women with an average age of 36 + 10.7 years and with 5.8 + 6.0 years of the disease. 56.48% had excellent adherence to the GFD and 43.52% had a good QoL. The high cost of gluten-free foods was the question with the highest response percentage, associated with regular and poor adherence to the GFD (p-value = 0.001) and with poor QoL (p-value = 0.023). Conclusion. In a COVID-19 pandemic period, the cost of food is associated with regular and poor adherence to the GFD and with poor QoL(AU)
