Abstract
A review on the association between celiac disease and cardiovascular events using multiple databases and random effects models is of interest. The overall prevalence of cardiovascular events in celiac patients was 9.3%. However, there was no significant increase in overall cardiovascular risk or myocardial infarction compared to the general population. Known data shows that celiac disease was linked to a higher risk of atrial fibrillation, stroke, congestive heart failure and cardiomyopathy. Thus, there is a need to monitor cardiovascular health in celiac patients to mitigate potential risks.
