*Season- Summer and Fall
*The risk factors associated with EoE are as follows:
*History of pollen allergy and aeroallergen
*'''Age'''- EoE has a bimodal age distribution common in both children and adults.
*Environmental-air pollution or industrial exposures
*'''Sex'''- Males are more prone to EoE than the females.
*History of European ancestry
*'''Weather'''- Cold and dry climate triggers EoE.
*'''Location'''- EoE is common in people with a history of European ancestry.
*'''Season'''- Summer and fall, this is because people stay outdoors during this time and the higher levels of the pollen and the other allergens during these seasons.
*'''Family history'''- EoE runs in the family and it is more common in people with a positive family history of the EoE.
*'''History of allergies'''- EoE is very common in patient with a history of allergies such as asthma, industrial exposures, environmental allergies, chronic respiratory disease, food allergies and atopic dermatitis.

Overview

Risk Factors

The risk factors of EoE are as follows:[1][2][3]

  • The risk factors associated with EoE are as follows:
  • Age- EoE has a bimodal age distribution common in both children and adults.
  • Sex- Males are more prone to EoE than the females.
  • Weather- Cold and dry climate triggers EoE.
  • Location- EoE is common in people with a history of European ancestry.
  • Season- Summer and fall, this is because people stay outdoors during this time and the higher levels of the pollen and the other allergens during these seasons.
  • Family history- EoE runs in the family and it is more common in people with a positive family history of the EoE.
  • History of allergies- EoE is very common in patient with a history of allergies such as asthma, industrial exposures, environmental allergies, chronic respiratory disease, food allergies and atopic dermatitis.
