Correlation of eosinophil-derived proteins in oesophageal string test samples with eosinophil counts in oesophageal mucosal biopsy samples. Spearman analyses correlating oesophageal string test sample eosinophil-derived protein levels with peak (panel A, 1–5) and mean (panel B, 1–5) eosinophil counts were performed. Spearman rank correlation coefficients (r) and associated p values are shown. EoE-no Rx (untreated—active disease) (solid circles), EoE-Rx (treated—in remission) (open circles), GORD (open triangles) and normal oesophagus (open squares). CLC/Gal-10, Charcot–Leyden crystal protein/galectin-10; ECP, eosinophil cationic protein; EDN, eosinophil-derived neurotoxin; EoE, eosinophilic oesophagitis; EPX, eosinophil peroxidase; GORD, gastro-oesophageal reflux disease; MBP1, major basic protein-1.
