Abstract:
Functional dyspepsia( FD)is a group of clinical syndromes presented as upper abdominal pain,epigastric burning sensation,postprandial fullness,satiety and other symptoms,but lack of organic disease causing these symptoms. Eosinophils( EOS)in gastrointestinal tract play an important role in preventing pathogen invasion and maintaining intestinal epithelial homeostasis. In recent years,many studies have shown a significant increase of duodenal EOS in patients with FD. This article reviewed the expression and significance of duodenal EOS in patients with FD.
