Little is known about the relationship between EREFSs and histologic markers of disease activity in children with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). We aimed to determine whether the EREFS can be used to identify children with EoE and how it changes with treatment.Wechsler, Joshua B.Bolton, Scott ...
Endoscopic reflux scoreBarium esophagramEosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) was first described by Landis in 1978. The disease is characterized by esophageal symptoms, primarily dysphagia in adult patients, and esophageal eosinophilic infiltration. The disease is associated with characteristic endoscopic findings, ...
Coordinated cell interactions within the esophagus maintain homeostasis, and disruption can lead to eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), a chronic inflammatory disease with poorly understood pathogenesis. We profile 421,312 individual cells from the esophageal mucosa of 7 healthy and 15 EoE participants, reveal...

Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a chronic allergic inflammatory disease with a complex underlying genetic etiology. Herein, we conduct whole-exome sequencing of a multigeneration EoE pedigree (discovery set) and 61 additional multiplex families with EoE (replication set). A series of rare, heterozyg...

Aims Eosinophilic esophagitis(EoE) is a chronic, T-helper type 2 immune-mediated esophageal disease, that often arises with food impaction(FI). Dysphagia and gastroesophageal reflux-like(GER-like) symptoms are other frequent causes of EoE diagnosis, as well. Clinical presentation and endoscopic-...
Adequacy of transnasal esophageal biopsies for the evaluation of eosinophilic esophagitis histologic scoring system (EoEHSS) has not yet been evaluated. We compared procedure times, endoscopic findings, and EoEHSS scoring for EoE patients undergoing TNE versus standard EGD. Sixty-six TNE patients and ...
eosinophilic esophagitisfood impactionendoscopycomplicationBackground and aims: In children with eosinophilic oesophagitis (EoE), the relationship among Endoscopic Reference Score (EREFS), Histology Scoring System (EoEHSS), and peak eosinophil count (PEC) is incompletely described. Our aim was to ...
Endoscopic findings such as esophageal rings, strictures, narrow-caliber esophagus, linear furrows, white plaques, and pallor or decreased vasculature might indicate the presence of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). We aimed to determine the prevalence and diagnostic utility of endoscopic features of EoE....
