Abstract

1 min read

We found a high prevalence of co-existing EoE in pediatric severe asthmatics. Severe asthmatics with EoE were more likely to have other allergic conditions and higher blood AEC levels. Future studies should evaluate if AEC can be used to screen for EoE among children with severe asthma.
