Thanks for writing this interesting and informative practice guideline. I only have a few minor comments:
1. p.21 second bullet point – could this language be softened to note that “…comparison to prior biopsies may be helpful, if clinically indicated/requested.”
2. Figure 3 legend, last sentence – could this language be softened to note that “…villous blunting, and may compare the villous architecture in patients with existing previous biopsies of suspected or proved celiac disease, if clinically indicated/requested.”
3. Table 2 – it may be helpful to mention that IELs in tropical sprue typically more numerous in the crypts than in the surface epithelial cells
