Diagnostic Accuracy of a Point-of-Care Test for Celiac Disease Antibody Screening among Infertile Patients.

The sensitivity of the POC test was low; however, the specificity was moderately good. The POC test had a high negative predictive value in this low prevalent population but missed 1 patient with biopsy-confirmed celiac disease. However, because of many false-positive tests, it cannot be recommended as replacement for standard laboratory tests but rather as a triage test to decide if the standard serology tests should be performed.
