Abstract:
ABSTRACTObjectivesChildren occasionally have dysphagia in the absence of an apparent primary cause. Esophageal eosinophilia is sometimes seen in these patients at the time of upper endoscopy but its significance is not clear. Although eosinophilia is regarded by some as a histologic hallmark of childhood reflux esophagitis, it may in fact signal a primary eosinophilic esophagitis in children with dysphagia. Our aim was to evaluate esophagitis, acid reflux determined by pH probe, and esophageal eosinophilia in children with the primary complaint of dysphagia.MethodsA retrospective study was per

Abstract:
Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is defined by symptoms related to esophageal dysfunction, persistent esophageal eosinophilia, and exclusion of other etiologies that may be contributing to the condition. EoE is different from erosive esophagitis. In children, symptoms vary by age groups, such as feeding disorders in 2 year olds; vomiting in 8 year olds; and abdominal pain, dysphagia, and/or food impaction in adolescents. Most adults present with dysphagia, food impaction, heartburn, or chest pain. Common endoscopic features in adults with EoE include linear furrows (creases that orient longitudi

Abstract:
Approximately half of patients with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) respond clinically and histologically to proton pump inhibitor (PPI) therapy. Although recent guidelines suggest that PPI-responders and non-responders were included in EoE, it is important to investigate the predictive factors of PPI- responsiveness. This study aimed to determine the rate of PPI- responders and compare the characteristics of PPI-responders and non-responders. Fifty-nine patients with esophageal eosinophilia received PPI therapy for eight weeks, and its efficacy was assessed. PPI- responsiveness was diagnosed b

Abstract:
Background: Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is a disease of real interest for researchers due to its heterogenicity and complex pathophysiological mechanisms. Identification of the factors that ensure success after treatment represents one of the main challenges in CRSwNP research. No consensus in this direction has been reached so far. Biomarkers for poor outcomes have been noted, but nonetheless, their prognostic value has not been extensively investigated, and needs to be sought.

Background/Objectives: In recent years, there has been an increase in the prevalence of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), in which dysphagia is one of the main symptoms.

Intense infiltration of gastrointestinal and colonic mucosa with eosinophils or acidophilic gastroenteritis (EG) is a relatively uncommon picture for a pathologist endoscopist especially outside the pediatric age group and is highly suggestive of an ongoing chronic inflammatory process.

Association with malabsorption, protein losing enteropathy, and refractory ulcers with gastrointestinal bleeding makes the clinical presentation more complicated. We present a unique case of dia

Abstract Background Oral immunotherapy (OIT) is increasingly practiced outside of research settings with reasonable success (Soller 2019). With OIT, a patient eats their food allergen daily, gradually increasing the dose, with the goal to prevent or reduce the severity of an anaphylactic reaction. One of the described adverse events of OIT is a risk of developing Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE), with cited frequency of 2.7% (Lucendo 2014). In addition, OIT is typically contraindicated in patients with known EoE but patients are not routinely screened for EoE prior to initiation of OIT. Aims To

Eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases (EGIDs) are an emerging group of pathological entities characterized by an eosinophil-predominant infiltration of different tracts of the gut in the absence of secondary causes of eosinophilia. According to the specific tract of the gut involved, EGIDs can be classified into eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), eosinophilic gastritis (EoG), eosinophilic enteritis (EoN), and eosinophilic colitis (EoC). The epidemiology of EGIDs is evolving rapidly. EoE, once considered a rare disease, now has an incidence and prevalence of 7.7 new cases per 100,000 inhabitants
