Living Systematic Review in Eosinophilic Esophagitis

Abstract

Eosinophilic Esophagitis is a chronic immune-mediated condition where eosinophils infiltrate the esophagus leading to inflammation which causes dysphagia, food impaction, pain and heartburn, lowering quality of life. Once considered rare, it has become increasingly prevalent over the past decade, now affecting 1 in 1,000 people worldwide, This rise has made EoE a major focus of clinical research. The rapid growth of research makes it essential that clinicians have access to clear. compiled evidence to guide decision making.

The Cochrane 2023 review was the most comprehensive synthesis of EoE treatments to date. Moving to a Living Systematic Review keeps evidence current as new studies emerge, supporting clinicians with up-to-date guidance, improving patient access to effective therapies, and strengthening the foundation for future research.
