Acceptability of screening for celiac disease at Youth Health Care Centers in The Netherlands.
Article in European journal of pediatrics, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
A novel evaluation of the acceptability of screening and mass screening for celiac disease (CD) in young children at the Preventive Youth Health Care Centres (YHCCs) in the Netherlands. Children aged 1-4 years attending the YHCC Kennemerland region were screened for CD-related symptoms. Symptomatic children were offered a point-of-care (POC) test for CD antibodies. Parents of both symptomatic and asymptomatic children received tailored questionnaires assessing opinions on case finding and mass screening and about distress and anxiety. Parents of POC-positive children received follow-up questionnaires during diagnosis. Questionnaires were completed for 1070 asymptomatic children, 1095 symptomatic participants, and 653 symptomatic non-participants. Sixty-one children tested POC-positive; 39 follow-up questionnaires were returned. Reported distress and anxiety were mild, mainly after a positive POC result. Among parents who refused testing, 32% (80/248) cited practical obstacles. Of those who accepted, 88% would participate again in the future. Overall, 87% considered mass screening a good idea, but only 68% (2125/3111) would allow participation of their asymptomatic child.Conclusion: Active case finding and mass screening for CD is well accepted in the Dutch population, with limited distress for parents and children. Reducing practical barriers is essential for successful implementation.
