Gluten sensitivity is an emerging entity that is becoming increasingly common; however, little is known about its pathogenesis. Here, Umberto Volta and Roberto De Giorgio discuss the current knowledge of gluten sensitivity and define its pathogenetic, clinical and diagnostic criteria. They aim to provide a practical appraisal of gluten sensitivity that is useful for doctors and researchers in the diagnosis and appropriate management of patients with gluten sensitivity.
