ITAMA - Citizen Questionnaire
Coeliac Disease is a condition which occurs when people become allergic to a protein called gluten in their diet. Gluten damages the lining of their small intestine causing problems with the absorption of nutrients and vitamins. The treatment for this condition, is to remove all sources of gluten from the diet. It is estimated that the disease affects about 1 in 100 individuals; however, in most cases, it is misdiagnosed.

ITAMA (https://www.itamaproject.eu/) is a multidisciplinary project, aiming to verify the effectiveness of less invasive testing methods to diagnose CD especially in children of paediatric age. For this reason, one of the main activities of the project was to screen around 20,000 children in primary and middle schools of Malta.

Now that the testing phase is almost finished, ITAMA would like to know the public opinion about the project and the diagnosis method used during the study. We would like to invite all people (parents, educators, students, adults, young adults, youths) to take part in this short survey to help us decide a way forward.
