Cysteinyl leukotriene levels in esophageal mucosal biopsies of children with eosinophilic inflammation: are they all the same?
Sandeep K. Gupta,Marc Peters-Golden,Joseph F. Fitzgerald,Joseph M. Croffie,Marian D. Pfefferkorn,Jean P. Molleston,Mark R. Corkins,Joel R Lim +7 more
TL;DR: CysLT levels in AEE patients are similar to those in controls, and independent of the severity of inflammation, while this would argue against the use of CysLT antagonists in the treatment of AEE.

TL;DR: The incidence of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) in a cohort of patients with CD was increased compared with the general population, and coexistent EoE should be considered in patients withCD who have persistent esophageal symptoms.

IgE and non-IgE-mediated food allergy: treatment in 2007.
TL;DR: Although there are no specific therapeutic recommendations for many IgE- mediated and non-IgE-mediated food allergic disorders besides allergen avoidance, various novel approaches are currently being investigated and may influence treatment approaches in the future.

TL;DR: The small-caliber esophagus of IEE is characterized at barium esophagography by long-segment but variable-length narrowing of the thoracic esophageal diameters, with a mean length of 15.4 cm, a diameter of 20 mm or less, smooth contours, and tapered margins.

Esophageal Eosinophilia with Dysphagia A Distinct Clinicopathologic Syndrome
TL;DR: The presence of high concentrations of IEE in esophageal biopsies from patients with dysphagia, normal endoscopy, and normal 24-hr esophagal pH monitoring represents a distinctive clinicopathologic syndrome not previously described.
