Non-celiac gluten sensitivity not yet universally adopted. For people on a gluten-free diet who are unable to perform an oral gluten challenge, an alternative to identify possible celiac disease is an in vitro gliadin challenge of small bowel biopsies; this test is only available at selected specialized tertiary-care centers.

This may occur within days to weeks of starting a GFD, but improvement may also be due to a non-specific, placebo
