Proton Pump Inhibitor (PPI) Responsive Eosinophilic Esophagitis EoE: Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) or Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE)?
- Conditions
- Erosive Esophagitis
- Interventions
- Radiation: Esophageal Barium Xray
- Registration Number
- NCT01865825
- Lead Sponsor
- Mayo Clinic
- Brief Summary
The investigators would like to determine if there are patients with PPI responsive Eosinophilic Esophagitis Infiltration that have significant loss of esophageal distensibility suggestive of esophageal fibrosis typical of classic Eosniophilic Esophagitis.
If this group of patients exists, the investigators would like to determine if they have the typical endoscopic features of EoE rather than those of GERD.

Group Intervention Description Esophageal barium xray Esophageal Barium Xray We will recruit 20 patients with GERD without dysphagia for an esophageal barium xray for esophageal diameter measurements. The 20 Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) patients will complete the Mayo Dysphagia Questionnaire 30-day and the Eosinophilic Esophagitis Actitivy Index (EEsAI) questionnaires
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Abnormal esophageal distensibility in patients with PPI responsive Eosinophilic Infiltrates to patients with Eosionophilic esophagitis and Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease. 1 year We will evaluate endoscopic features of Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease(GERD) by reviewing endoscopic reports and images. The presence of esophageal narrowing, furrows, rings, fragility, and white spots will be noted form the endoscopic reports prior to the initiation of the Provation report system. We will review the endoscopic reports and the endoscopic photographs on those patients evaluated after the Provation report system was initiated. All images will be reviewed by one investigator unaware of the subjects clinical data and name
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The relationship of abnormal esophageal distensibility to other endoscopic findings of EoE (furrows, rings, fragility, stricture) 1 year After reviewing endoscopic features of GERD by reviewing endoscopic reports and images. The presence of esophageal narrowing, furrows, rings, fragility, and white spots will be noted form the endoscopic reports prior to the initiation of the Provation report system. We will determine the relationship of abnormal esophagus distensibility to the endoscopic findings
