Perceived food intolerance in subjects with irritable bowel syndrome-- etiology, prevalence and consequences.
TL;DR: Perceived food intolerance is a common problem with significant nutritional consequences in a population with IBS, and the uselessness of current antibody tests and tests for malabsorption and the lack of correlation to psychiatric co-morbidity make the etiology obscure.

Epidemiology of celiac disease: What are the prevalence, incidence, and progression of celiac disease?
TL;DR: A new definition of CD is proposed, based on the presence of serum IgA autoantibodies to tissue transglutaminase (IgA TG) and HLA-DQB1*0201 or *0302 alelles, but their true sensitivity and specificity are debatable.
