Over 50% of non-celiac wheat sensitivity (NCWS) patients are HLA DQ2/DQ8 positive and often have a Celiac Disease (CD) family history. Studies have identified a subgroup of NCWS patients whose clinical and immunological features are closer to CD than to irritable bowel syndrome/functional dyspepsia (IBS/FD) ('inflammatory subgroup'). The investigators hypothesized that among CD patient's relatives, there might be a high number of NCWS subjects, who hypothetically belong to the 'inflammatory subgroup'. Therefore, the aim of this multi-step project is to identify the prevalence of both self-reported NCWS and IBS/FD not related to wheat ingestion among CD patient's relatives (parents, grandparents, siblings and sons).

Identification of patients with self-reported NCWS or IBS/FD not related to wheat intake among relatives of CD patients: Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale (GSRS)
CD patient's relatives included in the study will refill out the following online questionnaire at the end of the 6-week long strict WFD (T2): - Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale (GSRS) (range from 15 to 105) Patients reporting a reduction ≥30% in the questionnaire after WFD will be identified as patients with self-reported NCWS. Patients not reporting a reduction ≥30% in at least one questionnaire after WFD will be identified as patients with IBS/FD not related to wheat intake.
From baseline to 6-week
Identification of patients with self-reported NCWS or IBS/FD not related to wheat intake among relatives of CD patients: Bristol Stool Scale
From baseline to 6-week
CD patient's first-degree relatives with IBS/FD-like and extraintestinal (EI) symptoms
Patients, identified at T1, will undergo a 6-week long strict WFD (preliminary dietician consul will be granted to all subjects), at the end of which (T2) they will fill-out an online form including a WFD adherence questionnaire (i.e. modified 'Biagi' score) and the questionnaires reported in WP1. Patients reporting a reduction ≥30% in at least one questionnaire after WFD will be identified as self-reported NCWS, all the others will be identified as IBS/FD not related to wheat intake.
