Various environmental and genetic factors have been identify as inducing factors for celiac disease. Most of the patients has one of the HLA DQ forms. Although the prevalence of these genes are variable in different areas of the world, we do not have a comprehensive information about this issue in our region. Thus the aim of present study is to investigate the prevalence of HLA DQ typing of patients who visited Emam Reza Gastroenterology clinic of Shiraz(IRAN). METHODS: In this case-control study all under 18 years old children who were diagnosed with celiac disease and have visited Emam Reza gastroenterology clinic were investigated. The diagnosis of celiac disease was made by history, physical exam, serologic test, and histopathology of duodenal biopsy. Blood sample was taken and HLA typing performed using PCR method at Motahari clinic cytology laboratory. Also those people who neither them self nor their first degree relatives were not case of celiac disease and underwent HLA typing for other reason were identified as control group. The statistical analysis was done using SPSS 18 software. The p value &lt; 0.05 was identified as statistically significant. RESULTS: A total of 139 patients with celiac disease and 146 normal children were studied. The mean age of the patient with celiac disease were 9.1\u00a0years old with standard deviation of 3.4\u00a0years old. 64% of the celiac patients were girls and 36% were boys. While this proportion was 54.4% for boy and 48.6% for girls in control group. The most common HLA in celiac patients group were HLA DQ2 and 8 but the most common ones in control group were HLA DQ 8 and 5. Failure to Thrive were the most common signs of the celiac patients with a prevalence of 60 children. Total IgA titer were normal in 98.6% of the patients and TTG IgA titer were positive in 93.5% of the patients. The most common co existing disease with the celiac disease were diabetes with a prevalence of 30 children (66.7%). CONCLUSION: present study reveals that the prevalence of the HLA DQ2 and 8 among patients with celiac disease is 72.6% and 53% in our normal population.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3233\/hab-200437","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,1,26]],"date-time":"2021-01-26T12:42:59Z","timestamp":1611664979000},"page":"123-128","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Prevalence of HLA DQ 2, 8 in children with celiac disease"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"29","author":[{"given":"Seyed Mohsen","family":"Dehghani","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Gastroenterohepatology Research Center, Shiraz, Iran"},{"name":"Shiraz Transplant Research Center, Nemazee Teaching Hospital, School of Medicine, Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Shiraz, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Naqi","family":"Dara","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Pediatric Gastroenterology Department, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Behrooz","family":"Gharesifar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Immunology, School of Medicine, Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Shiraz, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Iraj","family":"Shahramian","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Pediatric Gastroenterology and Hepatology Research Center, Zabol University of Medical Sciences, Zabol, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Fatemeh","family":"Dalili","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Gastroenterohepatology Research Center, Shiraz, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Morteza","family":"Salarzaei","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Immunology, School of Medicine, Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Shiraz, Iran"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","reference":[{"issue":"17","key":"10.3233\/HAB-200437_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1731","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMra071600","article-title":"Celiac disease","volume":"357","author":"Green","year":"2007","journal-title":"New England Journal of Medicine"},{"issue":"2","key":"10.3233\/HAB-200437_ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"122","DOI":"10.5152\/tjg.2015.150191","article-title":"Prevalence of celiac disease among the Iranian population: A systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies","volume":"27","author":"Ahadi","year":"2016","journal-title":"Turk J Gastroenterol"},{"issue":"3","key":"10.3233\/HAB-200437_ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"351","DOI":"10.1016\/j.bpg.2005.01.004","article-title":"Coeliac disease in developing countries: middle East, India and North Africa","volume":"19","author":"Malekzadeh","year":"2005","journal-title":"Best Practice & Research Clinical Gastroenterology"},{"issue":"3","key":"10.3233\/HAB-200437_ref4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"351","DOI":"10.1016\/j.bpg.2005.01.004","article-title":"Coeliac disease in developing countries: Middle East, India and North Africa","volume":"19","author":"Marsh","year":"2005","journal-title":"Best Practice & Research Clinical Gastroenterology"},{"key":"10.3233\/HAB-200437_ref5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"S.
