Sensory Processing Difficulties in Children With Eosinophilic Esophagitis.
Article in Brain and behavior, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundEosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a chronic inflammatory esophageal disease associated with dysphagia, food impaction, feeding difficulties, vomiting, and failure to thrive in children. These symptoms result from dysregulated neural control and inflammation-induced tissue remodeling and may extend beyond esophageal dysfunction to impact sensory processing. This study aimed to evaluate the sensory processing difficulties in children with EoE.
methodsThis prospective case-control study included children with EoE and age-matched healthy controls. Sociodemographic data and medical histories were collected. Sensory processing abilities were evaluated using the sensory profile, which evaluates sensory performance across multiple domains.
resultsA total of 69 children aged 3-10 years participated in the study, including 22 diagnosed with EoE and 47 healthy controls. No significant demographic differences were found between groups (p > 0.05). Children with EoE exhibited significantly greater sensory processing difficulties in oral sensory processing, vestibular processing, and oral sensory sensitivity compared to healthy controls (p < 0.001).
conclusionsSensory processing difficulties in children with EoE extend beyond feeding challenges, affecting oral sensory and vestibular processing functions. Incorporating sensory processing assessments into clinical evaluations may improve the understanding of sensory-related challenges in this population. A multidisciplinary approach could help refine clinical management strategies.
