A Gap in Care Leads to Progression of Fibrosis in Eosinophilic Esophagitis Patients

Nicole C. Chang et al.

Summary: This study aimed to assess disease progression in patients with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) after diagnosis. The results showed that a long gap in regular care for EoE can lead to disease worsening and progression to fibrosis.

Older patients with eosinophilic esophagitis have high treatment response to topical steroids

Corey J. Ketchem et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the treatment response of patients with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), specifically focusing on the older population (≥65 years) receiving topical corticosteroids (tCS). The findings revealed that older EoE patients had a higher likelihood of responding to tCS therapy, suggesting the importance of studying this population more closely in future trials.

Obesity reduces the requirement for subsequent esophageal stricture dilation in adults with eosinophilic esophagitis

David Miller et al.

Summary: In this study, it was found that obese EoE patients require fewer esophageal dilations compared to non-obese patients. However, non-obese patients with fibrostenotic EoE should be monitored more closely as they are at higher risk for recurrent strictures.
