Efficacy of I gE ‐targeted vs empiric six‐food elimination diets for adult eosinophilic oesophagitisстатья из журнала
Аннотация: Abstract Background Skin testing‐guided elimination diet has proved unsuccessful for adult eosinophilic oesophagitis ( E o E ), whereas empiric six‐food elimination diet ( SFED ) achieves an efficacy of 70%. Objective To compare the efficacy of food‐specific serum I g E ‐targeted elimination diet ( sIgE ‐ ED ) and SFED . Methods Prospective study in adult patients with E o E . Food‐specific serum I g E , skin prick test ( SPT ) and atopy patch test ( APT ) to foods included in SFED were performed. Those with ≥1 positive IgE test, defined by ≥0.1 kU/l, followed a 6‐week sIgE ‐ ED , whereas non‐IgE‐sensitized patients underwent a 6‐week SFED. Responders to diet (<15 eos/HPF) underwent individual reintroduction of foods followed by histological assessment. Results Forty‐three EoE patients were included (26 sIgE ‐ ED and 17 SFED ). Regarding sIgE ‐ ED , the mean number of eliminated foods per patient was significantly lower than in SFED (3.81 vs 6; P < 0.001), being wheat (85%), nuts (73%) and cow's milk (61%) the most commonly foods withdrawn. No difference in histological response was observed between sIgE ‐ ED and SFED (73% vs 53%, P = 0.17). Causative foods identified by food challenge were cow's milk (64%), wheat (28%), egg (21%) and legumes (7%), with a single food trigger in 71% of patients. sIgE exhibited the higher accuracy to predict offending foods in IgE‐sensitized patients (sensitivity 87.5%, specificity 68% ( κ = 0.43)), with k values of 1 for cow's milk. APT results were all negative. Conclusions Histological remission was accomplished in 73% of patients undergoing sIgE ‐ED, which was nonsignificantly superior to SFED . sIgE effectively identified cow's milk as a food trigger in IgE‐sensitized patients.
