Endoscopic Features of Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Diseases. [PDF]
Endoscopic evaluation with biopsies is a mainstay of the diagnosis of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) and non-EoE eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases (EGIDs). Increasing knowledge has resulted in the development of 2 standardized scoring systems: the Endoscopic REFerence Score (EREFS) for EoE and the EG-REFS for eosinophilic gastritis, although the ...

Eosinophils, Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Diseases, and Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A Critical Review. [PDF]
Background/Objectives: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases (EGIDs) are complex, multifactorial chronic inflammatory disorders affecting the gastrointestinal tract. Their epidemiology, particularly for eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), is increasing worldwide, with a rise in the co-diagnosis of IBD and EGIDs.

Emerging Therapies for Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Diseases [PDF]
Besides eosinophilic esophagitis, other eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases (EGIDs), such as eosinophilic gastritis, eosinophilic gastroenteritis, and eosinophilic colitis, are increasingly diagnosed over the last decade. Whereas diagnosis and therapy of eosinophilic esophagitis have been standardized, the diagnosis and therapy of other EGIDs are ...

Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Diseases: Review and Update [PDF]
Eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders (EGIDs) are a progressively more frequent diverse group of intestinal diseases. The intention of this paper is to present the newest developments in the care of patients with EGIDs and to sum up a rising literature defining the clinical features and mechanistic elements of eosinophils and their intricate ...

[Eosinophilic oesophagitis and eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases].
Eosinophilic oesophagitis (EoE) was first described as an orphan disease in the 1990s, but its incidence and prevalence has increased dramatically in the last 20 years. EoE is now the most common cause of dysphagia in young adulthood. EoE is diagnosed endoscopically (with biopsies taken from the oesophagus).

Primary Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Diseases Beyond Eosinophilic Esophagitis in Children
ABSTRACTObjectives:There are many unknowns about primary eosinophilic gastrointestinal disease (EGID) in childhood. The aim of this study is to provide data about the frequency, management, control level, and prognosis of well documented primary EGID in childhood.Methods:This study was conducted in children who underwent endoscopy and/or colonoscopy at

Biologics in eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases. [PDF]
Eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases are a constellation of conditions categorized by the location of eosinophilic infiltration in the gastrointestinal tract. Symptoms vary based on location of eosinophils and age of the patient. There are no approved medications at the current time with individuals using off-label steroids or dietary therapy ...

Analysis of volatile marker compounds in body fluid samples from patients with gastrointestinal disease [PDF]
Causes of gastrointestinal diseases such as ulcerative colitis (UC) Crohn’s disease (CD) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) are not yet completely understood and clinical investigation for diagnosis is invasive, costly and time consuming.
