"This study suggests that having repeated infectious episodes early in life
increases the risk for later celiac disease," Dr. Myléus and colleagues
conclude. "In addition, we found a synergistic effect between early
infections and daily amount of gluten intake, more pronounced among infants
when breastfeeding had been discontinued prior to gluten introduction," they
add.

Furthermore, a synergistic association was observed if large quantities of
dietary gluten were introduced to infants' diet after stopping
breast-feeding (OR, 5.6; 95% CI, 3.1 - 10; P < .001 for larger vs lesser
quantities of gluten).
