Viral esophagitis in non-human immunodeficiency virus patients: a case-control study.

The study's findings contribute to a better understanding of the clinical characteristics and risk factors associated with VE in non-HIV patients. The identification of immunosuppression and specific risk factors can aid in early detection, appropriate management, and targeted interventions for VE. Further research is warranted to explore the rising incidence of VE in immunocompetent individuals and to optimize preventive strategies and treatment approaches for this condition.
