This is an observational study that follows children with celiac disease to look for early signs of type 1 diabetes. Researchers will test your child's blood for specific markers that can show whether diabetes might develop in the future, even before any symptoms appear.
Celiac disease and type 1 diabetes often occur together in the same person because they share similar genetic risk factors. By identifying early warning signs in children with celiac disease, doctors hope to catch diabetes risk sooner and potentially offer preventive treatments before the disease develops.

Your child will have blood samples taken to screen for diabetes-related autoantibodies (special proteins that signal diabetes risk). The study involves ongoing monitoring and testing over time to track whether these warning signs appear. All visits and procedures take place at the Pediatric Department of the University of Bari in Italy.
