Abstract
The integrity of the esophageal mucosa is impaired in patients with EoE and PPI-REE, allowing transepithelial transport of small molecules. PPI therapy partially restores mucosal integrity in patients with PPI-REE, but not in those with EoE. Acid reflux might contribute to transepithelial allergen flux in patients with PPI-REE. Trialregister.nl number: NTR3480.
