Celiac disease was diagnosed in four donors with positive tissue transglutaminase antibodies, establishing a prevalence of 1.68% (95% confidence interval 1.15\u20132.3) for celiac disease autoimmunity and 0.21% for celiac disease (95% confidence interval 0.07\u20130.5%).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>The prevalence of celiac disease in blood donors in Israel did not rise in the last 15 years, suggesting that the increased prevalence of diagnosed celiac disease is mainly due to increased awareness.

antibodies result upon re\u2010testing, repeated tissue transglutaminase antibodies testing is required when screening asymptomatic populations for celiac
