Abstract
Summary of the research findings
Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE), a chronic allergic inflammatory disease, is linked to multiple genetic risk factors, but studies have focused on populations of European ancestry. Few studies have assessed Black or African American (AA) populations for loci involved in EoE susceptibility.
137 African American cases, 1,465 African American controls
