Official Title: Choosing a Preferred Serology Kit for Screening and Diagnosis of Celiac Disease

Brief Summary: The investigators will perform prospective observational multicenter study which includes children with suspicion of CD who referred to gastroscopy and intestinal biopsies (study group) and children without suspicion of CD who underwent gastroscopy for other reasons. The investigators will compare sensitivity, specificity and predictive values of several serological kits of TG2 (tissue transglutaminase) (Bioplex 2200, Bioflash, Phadia 250, Liason-XL, Orgentec Alergia and Eurospital) compared with definitive diagnosis of CD according to histological findings.
