Researchers found a significantly higher prevalence of coronary artery disease among patients with celiac disease compared to the control population (9.5 percent compared to 5.6 percent, respectively). Data showed a similar trend among younger patients, those under age 65, with celiac disease compared to those without celiac disease (4.5 percent compared to 2.4 percent).They have decided that this is due to "systemic inflammation". My pet peeve.

Strep bacteria cause coronary heart disease. That's a fact.
Not to mention, infection causes an immune response otherwise known as "systemic inflammation".
Update.
Inflammation Inhibitor Fails to Affect CV Outcomes
Uh huh.
