Is eosinophilic esophagitis a member of the atopic march?

The Atopic March refers to the natural history of allergic diseases as they develop over the course of infancy and childhood. As we detail in our accompanying review (see page XXX in this issue), "the March" classically begins with atopic dermatitis (AD), and progresses to immunoglobulin E (IgE)–mediated food allergy (FA), asthma, and allergic rhinitis (AR). In addition to its characteristic progression, members of the March have been shown to predispose to the development of subsequent allergic conditions.
