Objective
This project focuses on known disorders with reported permeability changes mainly in celiac disease and inflammatory bowel disease. The utilization of the simple non-invasive test before and after intervention and comparison with other markers will allow judging its value in the pediatric clinical practice. If it is confirmed this simple urine test will be useful to assess the status of the disease (relapse, remission) and dietary compliance.
