Health-Related Quality of Life and Costs Associated With Eosinophilic Esophagitis: A Systematic Review
Vincent A. Mukkada,Gary W. Falk,Christian S. Eichinger,Denise King,Lora Todorova,Nicholas J. Shaheen +5 more
TL;DR: The included studies showed that EoE is associated with a significant impact on HRQoL, resulting in disruption to and restrictions on daily life for patients, their caregivers, and, in some instances, their families.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determinant factors of quality of life in adult patients with eosinophilic esophagitis
TL;DR: Recurrent food impaction, a higher educational level, dietary interventions and symptom duration were all independent determinant factors significantly impairing HRQoL in adult EoE patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Systematic review: health-related quality of life in children and adults with eosinophilic oesophagitis—instruments for measurement and determinant factors
TL;DR: Several measures have been used to assess the health‐related quality of life (HRQoL) of patients with eosinophilic oesophagitis (EoE).

Impact on Health-Related Quality of Life in Adults with Eosinophilic Gastritis and Gastroenteritis: A Qualitative Assessment
Alyse Bedell,Tiffany Noel Taft,Meredith Craven,Livia Guadagnoli,Ikuo Hirano,Nirmala Gonsalves +5 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that patients with EG/EGE experience impacts toHRQOL, some of which differ from HRQOL of other eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases, and these results support the development of a disease-specific measure, or adaptation of an existing measure, to assess HRQ OL in EG/ EGE.
Journal ArticleDOI
The role of endoscopy in eosinophilic esophagitis: from diagnosis to therapy.
TL;DR: Endoscopic dilation should be considered in patients with esophageal narrowing and dysphagia/food impaction unresponsive to diet or drugs-based anti-inflammatory treatment, thus impairing symptoms and needs dilation.

TL;DR: A new conceptual definition is proposed highlighting that EoE represents a chronic, immune/antigen-mediated disease characterized clinically by symptoms related to esophageal dysfunction and histologically by eosinophil-predominant inflammation.

TL;DR: A multidisciplinary task force of 31 physicians assembled with the goal of determining diagnostic criteria and making recommendations for evaluation and treatment of children and adults with suspected eosinophilic esophagitis (EE) provided current recommendations for care of affected patients.

The Swedish SF-36 Health Survey: I. Evaluation of data quality, scaling assumptions, reliability and construct validity across general populations in Sweden.
TL;DR: Empirical evidence is yielded supporting the feasibility of a non-English language reproduction of the SF-36 Health Survey in Sweden and tests of scaling assumptions including hypothesized item groupings were consistently favorable across subgroups, although lower rates were noted in the oldest age group.

TL;DR: Eosinophilic esophagitis, a primary and chronic disease restricted to the esophagus, leads to persistent dysphagia and structural esophageal alterations but does not impact the nutritional state.
