Coeliac disease in children and adults is considered to be a variety of the same disorder. This gains epidemiological support in the present study, which reports on the observed prevalence of coeliac disease in an area of Sweden (population, 140 500). On 1 July 1981, the prevalence rate was found to be 104/100 000 (1:960) among children, and the same figure, 106/00 000 (1:950), was found for coeliac disease unaccompanied by dermatitis herpetiformis in the middle-aged population. The figures were obtained in patients seeking medical are and thus represent minimum rates, and it is likely that the actual prevalence of coeliac disease in Sweden will prove still higher.
儿童和成人的乳糜泻被认为是同一种疾病的不同类型。本研究为这一观点提供了流行病学支持，该研究报告了瑞典某地区（人口140,500）乳糜泻的观察患病率。1981年7月1日，儿童中的患病率为104/100,000（1:960），中年人群中无疱疹样皮炎的乳糜泻患病率相同，为106/100,000（1:950）。这些数据是在寻求医疗帮助的患者中获得的，因此代表的是最低患病率，瑞典乳糜泻的实际患病率可能会更高。
