Core Tip |
This meta-analysis seeks to perform a focused review on swallowed topical corticosteroid maintenance therapy for eosinophilic esophagitis. The results showed that the steroid group compared to placebo had significantly lower odds of disease recurrence histologically and lower odds of requiring repeat esophageal dilation. Our sensitivity analysis suggests that newer formulations of swallowed topical corticosteroids have favorable symptom outcomes. The groups were similar in candidal infectious outcomes. Thus, the existing literature shows that swallowed topical corticosteroids are safe and effective as maintenance therapy for eosinophilic esophagitis. |
