DOI: 10.1007/s00431-018-3129-7
Abstract: Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a unique form of non-IgE-mediated food allergy characterized by esophageal eosinophilic infiltration that commonly causes dysphagia and food impaction in children and adolescents. Assessing the efficacy of dietary restrictions or drug… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00455-018-9925-4
Abstract: Current eosinophilic esophagitis care requires monitoring with repeat endoscopy and biopsy, which has significant cost, risk, and inconvenience for patients. Fractionated exhaled nitric oxide testing (FeNO) is a standardized non-invasive test with proven utility in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00535-018-1498-3
Abstract: Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a food allergen-induced inflammatory disorder. EoE is increasingly recognized as a cause of swallowing dysfunction, food impaction and esophageal stricture. Inflammation of the esophageal mucosa involves immune cell infiltrate, reactive epithelial… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00535-019-01604-7
Abstract: This report explores two hypotheses regarding eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE): (1) that the use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) might contribute to the pathogenesis of EoE by preventing peptic digestion of food allergens, by increasing gastric… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10388-020-00791-0
Abstract: Background Although several endoscopic findings of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), such as the EoE endoscopic reference score (EREFS), have been reported thus far, these endoscopic findings exhibit low specificity. Furthermore, most of these endoscopic findings were… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10620-020-06230-5
Abstract: Background Diagnosis of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) requires manual quantification of tissue eosinophils. Eosinophil peroxidase (EPX) is an eosinophil-specific, cytoplasmic granule protein released during degranulation. Aims The objective of this study was to evaluate image analysis… read more here.
