Food‐specific IgA levels in esophageal biopsies are not sufficiently high to predict food triggers in eosinophilic esophagitis

Food‐specific IgA levels in esophageal biopsies are not sufficiently high to predict food triggers in eosinophilic esophagitis

Abstract Background Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is an immune‐mediated disease, characterized by Th2‐type inflammation linked to specific foods. No currently available allergy tests reliably identify food triggers in EoE, leading to empiric dietary elimination strategies. Recently, milk‐ and wheat...
