RESUMEN

Contact dermatitis (allergic and irritant) occurs when the skin encounters haptens that elicit a T cell-mediated hypersensitivity reaction (allergic) or a nonimmunologic, toxic reaction (irritant). Patch testing is the reference standard for diagnosing allergic contact dermatitis (ACD), although positive results are not always relevant. Therefore, the definitive diagnosis of ACD requires an astute clinician able to connect the results of patch testing appropriately with the clinical history and the cutaneous examination findings. Comorbid conditions such as atopic dermatitis can confound the accurate diagnosis of ACD because of the similarities in clinical presentation. Furthermore, both extremes of age can further challenge the diagnostic specificity of ACD owing to the maturing immune system and the space limitations present when the very young are patch tested. The goal of this Continuing Medical Education article is to discuss the challenges of diagnosing ACD in patients with unique comorbidities such as atopic dermatitis, given the morphologic similarities, and when to patch test these patients. Diagnosis of ACD will also be discussed in very young patients with a focus on patch test allergen selection despite the limited geographic space. The most common allergens reported in very young and old patients will also be discussed.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Association of early pregnancy body mass index (BMI) and maternal gestational weight gain (GWG), and asthma and allergic disease in children is unclear. METHODS: We analyzed data from 3176 mother-child pairs in a prospective birth cohort study. Maternal anthropometric measurements in the first and last antenatal clinic visits were obtained through post-delivery questionnaires to calculate early pregnancy BMI and maternal GWG. Asthma and allergic diseases in children by the age of 5 years was assessed using a validated questionnaire. Furthermore, serum samples were analyzed for IgE antibodies to eight allergens. We applied Cox proportional hazards and logistic regression analyses to estimate the association of early pregnancy BMI and maternal GWG (as continuous variables and categorized into quarters), and asthma, atopic eczema, atopic sensitization, and allergic rhinitis in children. RESULTS: Neither early pregnancy BMI nor maternal GWG was associated with asthma and allergic disease in children when analyzed as continuous variables. However, compared to the first quarter of GWG (a rate <0.32 kg/week), mothers in the third quarter (rate 0.42-0.52 kg/week) had children with significantly higher odds of developing atopic eczema (adjusted OR 1.49, 95% CI [1.13-1.96]) by 5 years of age. CONCLUSION: Association of early pregnancy BMI and maternal GWG, and asthma and allergic disease in children, is inconsistent. High maternal GWG may be associated with increased odds of atopic eczema.

RESUMEN

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is the most common chronic inflammatory dermatitis in developed countries, and has a major impact on those affected. Little is known about AD in elderly patients. This prospective multicentre observational study described the clinical characteristics and burden of AD in elderly subjects ≥ 65 years, as well as the therapeutic options chosen for this population in routine care, and compared findings with those in young adults with AD < 30 years. Cohort data from adult patients with moderate-to-severe AD enrolled in a French national prospective registry (December 2020 to May 2023) were analysed. Patients ≥ 65 years made up 12.5% of the total adult cohort and presented less head-and-neck and extremity involvement, and were less affected by generalized forms than young adult patients. Elderly patients predominantly had late-onset AD and had similar disease severity to younger adults. Although the overall impact of AD appeared to be lower in elderly patients and treatment was initially less used in this age group, the substantial impact on sleep and psychiatric comorbidities was similar in older and younger adult patients. Better understanding of AD in elderly patients and the establishment of age-specific treatment guidelines may help dermatologists manage the disease in older people.

RESUMEN

Purpose: Although many studies have indicated that atopic dermatitis (AD) could contribute to the risk of keratoconus (KC), the causality between AD and KC remains controversial. This study aimed to explore the potential causal associations between AD and KC. Methods: Instrumental variables for both exposures and outcomes were obtained from large-scale genome-wide association study summary statistics from previous meta-analyses. Mendelian randomization (MR) was applied to infer causal associations between AD and KC. Our main analyses were conducted by inverse-variance weighted (IVW) method multiplicative random effect model, complemented with additional five models and sensitivity analyses. Reverse MR analysis was applied to determine the direction of the causal association between AD and KC. Results: Both IVW and weighted median methods revealed a causal effect of AD on KC (IVW odds ratio [OR], 1.475; P = 4.16 × 10-4; weighted median OR, 1.351; P = 7.65 × 10-3). The weighted mode, simple mode, and MR Egger methods demonstrated consistent direction of causality. Evidence from all sensitivity analyses further supported these associations. Reverse MR analyses did not suggest causal effects of KC on AD. Conclusions: This study supported a significant causal effect of AD on KC, and reverse MR analysis proved that the causal association was unilateral. Translational Relevance: This study provides valid evidence that regular ophthalmic examinations are recommended for patients with AD to detect and prevent KC at an early stage.

RESUMEN

Atopic Dermatitis (AD) is a common, pruritic inflammatory skin disease associated with marked disease burden and substantial health care costs. AD does not discriminate between populations; prevalence estimates vary widely with most studies focusing on general or pediatric populations and a limited number of studies in adult populations solely. The costs of treating AD are staggering. Studies that examine differences in prevalence may be difficult to compare due to differences in study designs. However, understanding the prevalence of AD across populations is critical if we are to improve the lives of patients and caregivers living with this disease.

RESUMEN

Patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) are at increased risk of atopic and non-atopic comorbidities. In fact, the Hanifin and Rajka criteria include allergic and infectious comorbidities as a minor criterion. Despite the well-recognized list of comorbidities, the past 15 years greatly expanded the list of recognized comorbidities of AD. This narrative review focuses on comorbidities of AD using a mnemonic, VINDICATE-P: vascular/cardiovascular, infectious, neoplastic and neurologic, degenerative, iatrogenic, congenital, atopic and autoimmune, traumatic, endocrine/metabolic, and psychiatric. The comorbidities of AD vary by age. More research is needed into the mechanisms of comorbidities and optimal screening strategies in AD patients.

RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION: In an effort to define the characteristics of populations affected by melasma, we utilized a large global health research network database from 108 health care organizations (TriNetx) to quantify the associations between race, ethnicity, and comorbidities. METHODS: We identified the cohort of all patients with melasma from the TriNetx database, and subsequently generated a control cohort. ICD-10 codes were used to identify the prevalence of various comorbidities associated with melasma. RESULTS: A total of 41,283 patients with melasma (93% female, mean [SD] age 48.8 [12.6] year) were identified. The most frequently associated risk factors included hypertension (25% of the melasma cohort) and hormonal contraception (24%). Rosacea (OR=5.1), atopic dermatitis (OR=3.3), lupus (OR=2.5), history of skin cancer (OR=2.5), history of internal malignancy (OR=2.1), and hormonal contraception use (OR=2.1) possessed the highest odds ratios for development of melasma (all P< 0.01). A statistically significant association was identified for melasma in Asian or Other/Unknown races (OR=2.0 and OR=1.7, P< 0.01), as well as Hispanic ethnicity (OR=1.3, P< 0.01). White, Black/African American, and Not Hispanic groups all revealed slightly lower odds (all 0.8, P< 0.01). CONCLUSION: This latest global update on the etiopathology of melasma further supports findings from prior epidemiologic study reporting preference in melanized phenotypes (Fitzpatrick skin type III-V), but less so in extreme skin types (I, II, VI). Increased associations with rosacea, atopic dermatitis, and history of cancer may emphasize the importance of treating concurrent inflammatory environments and the consideration of more frequent malignancy surveillance.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: Oxidative stress is strongly associated with atopic dermatitis (AD), and increased antioxidant intake could potentially reduce the risk of or alleviate its symptoms. However, the argument is disputed. Therefore, we conducted a Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to explore the causal relationship between dietary antioxidant vitamin intake and AD. METHODS: We applied MR analysis to examine the causative association between dietary antioxidant vitamin intake (vitamin C, vitamin E, carotene, and retinol) and AD. The genome-wide association study (GWAS) summary data for antioxidant vitamins intake and AD were obtained from the IEU OpenGWAS database and the UK biobank. Our study consisted of two major parts, MR analysis to detect the causal relationship between exposure and outcome, and sensitivity analysis as supplemental evidence to verify the robustness of the results. RESULT: The results revealed a suggestive causal relationship between vitamin E intake and AD (p = 0.038, OR 95% CI = 0.745-0.992). However, there was no causal relationship between the other three vitamins (vitamin C, carotene, and retinol) and AD (p = 0.507, OR 95% CI = 0.826-1.099) (p = 0.890, OR 95% CI = 0.864-1.184) (p = 0.492, OR 95% CI = 0.893-1.264). None of the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were detected as heterogeneous and pleiotropy in the sensitivity analysis (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION: The analysis suggested that dietary intake of vitamin E may potentially lower the risk of AD. Conversely, intake of vitamin C, retinol, and carotene is not causally related to AD. Although vitamin E intake could be protective against AD, intake of dietary antioxidant vitamins to prevent or treat AD is not necessary.

RESUMEN

Eyelid dermatitis (ED) affects a cosmetically significant area and leads to patients' distress. Despite ongoing and recent research efforts, ED remains a multidisciplinary problem that needs further characterization. We aimed to evaluate the atopic eyelid dermatitis (AED) frequency in ED patients and to perform their clinical profiling. PubMed databases were searched from 01.01.1980 till 01.02.2024 to PRISMA guidelines using a search strategy: (eyelid OR periorbital OR periocular) AND (dermatitis or eczema). Studies with patch-tested ED patients were included. Proportional meta-analysis was performed using JBI SUMARI software. We included 65 studies across Europe, North America, Asia and Australia, with a total of 21,793 patch-tested ED patients. AED was reported in 27.5% (95% CI 0.177, 0.384) of patch-tested ED patients. Isolated ED was noted in 51.6% (95% CI 0.408, 0.623) of 8453 ED patients with reported lesion distribution, including 430 patients with isolated AED. Our meta-analysis demonstrated that the AED frequency in patch-tested ED patients exceeded the previous estimate of 10%. Isolated AED was noted in adult patients, attending contact allergy clinics. Future studies are needed to elucidate the global prevalence and natural history of isolated AED in adults.

RESUMEN

Introduction: Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common, chronic, recurrent inflammatory skin disease. To date, no meta-analysis have been conducted on the prevalence and risk factors of AD in children aged 1-7 years in Mainland China. Methods: We conducted a meta-analysis of the prevalence and risk factors of AD among children aged 1-7 years in China. Chinese and English publications were searched in Chinese and English databases on AD epidemiology published between 1999 and 2023. Two researchers independently screened the literature, extracted the data, and evaluated their quality. A meta-analysis was performed using a random-effects model (I2 > 50%) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the forest plots. Data were processed using the RevMan 5.3. Results: Nineteen studies (data from 127,660 samples) met the inclusion criteria. The pooled prevalence of AD in Chinese children aged 1-7 years was 8%. Over the last decade, the prevalence of AD has increased. The prevalence of AD among children in southern China was higher than that in northern China and was the highest at the provincial level in Zhejiang, Shanxi, and Anhui. The prevalence of AD was dependent on the family history of allergy, passive smoking, households with pets, plush toys, and residential area. Discussion: The prevalence of AD in children (age 1-7 years) in China has increased. Further studies are needed to monitor the prevalence of AD in Chinese children. Therefore, early prevention and screening should be performed for children with a family history of AD, and their living environment should be improved to reduce allergen stimulation, thus reducing the development of AD.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: The aim is to evaluate the global, regional, and national trends in the burden of children and adolescents under 14 from 1990 to 2019, as well as future trend predictions. METHODS: In Global Burden of Disease (GBD), we reported the incidence, prevalence rate and the years lived with disability (YLDs), the incidence per 100,000 people, and the average annual percentage change (AAPC). We further analyzed these global trends by age, gender, and social development index (SDI). We use joinpoint regression analysis to determine the year with the largest global trend change. Bayesian age-period-cohort (BAPC) was used for predictions. RESULTS: From 1990 to 2019, the incidence rate, prevalence and YLDs of AD under 14 years old showed a downward trend. The incidence rate of AD among people under 5 years old has the largest decline [AAPC: -0.13 (95% CI: -0.15 to -0.11), P < 0.001]. The incidence rate, prevalence and YLDs of AD in women were higher than those in men regardless of age group. Regional, Asia has the highest AD incidence rate in 2019. National, Mongolia has the highest AD incidence rate in 2019. The largest drop in AD incidence rate, prevalence and YLDs between 1990 and 2019 was in the United States. CONCLUSION: From 1990 to 2019, the global incidence rate of children and adolescents under 14 declined. With the emergence of therapeutic drugs, the prevalence and YLDs rate declined significantly. From 2020 to 2030, there is still a downward trend.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to evaluate the association between atopic dermatitis in pregnant women and preterm births, accounting for maternal ritodrine hydrochloride administration status. METHODS: Data of 83,796 women with singleton pregnancies at and after 22 weeks of gestation (enrolled between 2011 and 2014) were analyzed. These data were obtained from the Japan Environment and Children's Study. Atopic dermatitis was defined based on self-reported questionnaire responses obtained during the first trimester. The primary outcome measures were preterm births before 37, 32, and 28 weeks of gestation. Using a multivariable logistic regression model, odds ratios for preterm births in pregnant women with atopic dermatitis were calculated, with women without atopic dermatitis included in the reference group. This analysis considered confounding factors and maternal ritodrine hydrochloride administration. RESULTS: Among pregnant women with atopic dermatitis, the adjusted odds ratios (95% confidence intervals) for preterm births before 37, 32, and 28 weeks of gestation were 0.89 (0.81-0.98), 0.98 (0.74-1.30), and 0.88 (0.50-1.55), respectively. This trend remained consistent after excluding participants who received ritodrine hydrochloride. CONCLUSIONS FOR PRACTICE: Atopic dermatitis in pregnant women was significantly associated with a decreased incidence of preterm births before 37 weeks of gestation, even after accounting for the effects of maternal ritodrine hydrochloride administration.

RESUMEN

To evaluate the modification of allergic dermatitis on the association between PM exposure and allergic rhinitis in preschool children. This cross-sectional study was based on a questionnaire conducted between June 2019 and June 2020 to caregivers of children aged 3 to 6 years in the kindergartens of 7 Chinese cities to collect information on allergic rhinitis and allergic dermatitis. A mature machine learning-based space-time extremely randomized trees model was applied to estimate early-life, prenatal, and first-year exposure of PM1, PM2.5 and PM10 at 1 km×1 km resolution. A combination of multilevel logistic regression and restricted cubic spline functions was used to quantitatively assess whether allergic dermatitis modifies the associations between size-specific PM exposure and the risk of childhood allergic rhinitis. The results showed that out of 28 408 children, 14 803 (52.1%) were boys and 13 605 (47.9%) were girls; the age of children ranged from 3.1 to 6.8 years, with a mean age of (4.9±0.9) years, of which 3 586 (12.6%) were diagnosed with allergic rhinitis. Among all children, 17 832 (62.8%) were breastfed for more than 6 months and 769 (2.7%) had parental history of atopy. A total of 21 548 children (75.9%) had a mother with an educational level of university or above and 7 338 (29.6%) had passive household cigarette smoke exposure. The adjusted ORs for childhood allergic rhinitis among the children with allergic dermatitis as per interquartile range (IQR) increase in early-life PM1(9.8 µg/m3), PM2.5 (14.9 µg/m3) and PM10 (37.7 µg/m3) were significantly higher than the corresponding ORs among the children without allergic dermatitis [OR: 1.45, 95%CI (1.26, 1.66) vs. 1.33, 95%CI (1.20, 1.47), for PM1; OR: 1.38, 95%CI (1.23, 1.56) vs. 1.32, 95%CI (1.21, 1.45), for PM2.5; OR: 1.56, 95%CI (1.31, 1.86) vs. 1.46, 95%CI (1.28, 1.67), for PM10]. The interactions between allergic dermatitis and size-specific PM exposure on childhood allergic rhinitis were statistically significant (Z value=19.4, all P for interaction<0.001). The similar patterns were observed for both prenatal and first-year size-specific PM exposure and the results of the dose-response relationship were consistent with those of the logistic regression. In conclusion, allergic dermatitis, as an important part of the allergic disease progression, may modify the association between ambient PM exposure and the risk of childhood allergic rhinitis. Children with allergic dermatitis should pay more attention to minimize outdoor air pollutants exposure to prevent the further progression of allergic diseases.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Growing evidence has shown that atopic dermatitis (AD) may decrease lung cancer (LC) risk. However, the causality between the two diseases is inconsistent and controversial. Therefore, we explored the causal relationship between AD and different histological subtypes of LC by using the Mendelian randomization (MR) method. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We conducted the MR study based on summary statistics from the genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of AD (10,788 cases and 30,047 controls) and LC (29,266 cases and 56,450 controls). Instrumental variables (IVs) were obtained after removing SNPs associated with potential confounders. We employed inverse-variance weighted (IVW), MR-Egger, and weighted median methods to pool estimates, and performed a comprehensive sensitivity analysis. RESULTS: The results of the IVW method suggested that AD may decrease the risk of developing lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) (OR = 0.91, 95% CI: 0.85-0.97, P = 0.007). Moreover, no causality was identified between AD and overall LC (OR = 0.96, 95% CI: 0.91-1.01, P = 0.101), lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) (OR = 1.04, 95% CI: 0.96-1.036, P = 0.324), and small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC) (OR = 0.95, 95% CI: 0.82-1.10, P = 0.512). A comprehensive sensitivity test showed the robustness of our results. CONCLUSION: The present study indicates that AD may decrease the risk of LUAD in the European population, which needs additional investigations to identify the potential molecular mechanisms.

RESUMEN

Epidemiological data suggest that atopic diseases begin in early life and that most cases present clinically during early childhood. The diseases are highly prevalent and increase as communities adopt western lifestyles. Disentangling the pathophysiological mechanisms leading to disease debut is necessary to identify beneficial/harmful exposures so that successful prevention and treatment can be generated. The objective of this review is to explore the definition of atopy and mechanisms of atopic diseases, and to investigate the importance of environmental factors in early life, prior to disease development. First, the distribution of sIgE levels in children is investigated, as this is one of the main criteria for the definition of atopy. Thereafter, it is explored how studies of parental atopic status, sensitization patterns, and early debut and severity of atopic dermatitis have substantiated the theory of an early-life window of opportunity for intervention that precedes the development of atopic diseases in childhood. Then, it is examined whether early-life exposures such as breastfeeding, dogs, cats, and house dust mites in the home perinatally constitute important influencers in this crucial time of life. Finally, it is discussed how these findings could be validated in randomized controlled trials, which might prepare the ground for improved diagnostics and prevention strategies to mitigate the current atopic pandemic.

RESUMEN

Loss-of-function (LoF) mutations in the filaggrin gene (FLG) constitute the strongest genetic risk for atopic dermatitis (AD). A latitude-dependent difference in the prevalence of LoF FLG mutations was systematically evaluated. A systematic review and meta-analysis were performed to estimate the prevalence of LoF FLG mutations in AD patients and the general population by geography and ethnicity. Risk of bias was assessed by Newcastle-Ottawa Scale and Jadad score. StatsDirect, version 3 software was used to calculate all outcomes. PubMed and EMBASE were searched until 9th December 2021. Studies were included if they contained data on the prevalence of LoF FLG mutations in AD patients or from the general population or associations between AD and LoF FLG mutations and were authored in English. Overall, 248 studies and 229 310 AD patients and individuals of the general population were included in the quantitative analysis. The prevalence of LoF FLG mutations was 19.1% (95% CI, 17.3-21.0) in AD patients and 5.8% (95% CI, 5.3-6.2) in the general population. There was a significant positive association between AD and LoF FLG mutations in all latitudes in the Northern hemisphere, but not in all ethnicities. The prevalence of LoF FLG mutations became gradually more prevalent in populations residing farther north of the Equator but was negligible in Middle Easterners and absent in most African populations. FLG LoF mutations are common and tend to increase with northern latitude, suggesting potential clinical implications for future AD management. The existence of possible genetic fitness from FLG LoF mutations remains unknown.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: The association between atopic dermatitis and childhood overweight and obesity has been studied extensively, but the results are inconclusive; most studies have focused on body mass index as a measure of obesity, with few investigating the relationship with underweight. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the association between body mass index levels and atopic dermatitis in Korean adolescents. METHODS: 3-year (2019-2021) of Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey were used. Body mass index was used to measure obesity and a recent diagnosis within the past year was used as the criterion for atopic dermatitis. Multiple logistic regression analyses were performed to explore the associations. The odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. RESULTS: A total of 144,183 adolescents aged 12-18 years were included in this study (74,704 males and 69,479 females). Over the past year, 5.4% of males and 7.3% of females were diagnosed with atopic dermatitis in the study population. Adolescents with normal weight (males [OR: 1.19, CI: 1.02-1.38]; females [OR: 1.26, CI: 1.10-1.43]) and overweight (males [OR: 1.37, CI: 1.16-1.61]; females [OR: 1.37, CI: 1.19-1.58]) were more likely to develop atopic dermatitis than underweight. CONCLUSION: Increased degree of obesity may contribute to the development of atopic dermatitis. The normal-weight and obese adolescents had higher likelihood of developing atopic dermatitis compared with the underweight adolescents.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the association of maternal first-trimester vitamin D levels and vitamin D supplementation during pregnancy with infant atopic dermatitis (AD) and to determine the effect of variables such as mode of conception on the association. METHODS: This study was based on the Shanghai sub-cohort of the International Birth Cohort of China. A total of 4051 woman-infant pairs with singleton pregnancies were recruited. Vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency were defined as serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations of 25 and 50 nmol/L, respectively. AD in infants was assessed during the first six months using a standardized questionnaire based on the British Working Party criteria. Modified Poisson regression estimated the association between maternal vitamin D status and infant AD. RESULTS: The risk of AD in infants was higher in women with deficient 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels in the first trimester (RR: 1.77, 95% CI: 1.41-2.23). This increased risk was seen in naturally conceived pregnancies, but not in those conceived using assisted reproductive technology (ART). The incidence of AD decreased in infants of mothers who took multi-vitamin (RR: 0.79, 95% CI: 0.67-1.98) and vitamin D supplements (RR: 0.51, 95% CI: 0.37-0.71) compared to those whose mothers did not take any supplements. Maternal vitamin D deficiency had varying effects on AD risk based on passive smoking exposure and breastfeeding patterns. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings highlight the importance of monitoring and supplementing vitamin D during pregnancy, especially in specific maternal populations, to reduce the risk of AD in offspring.

RESUMEN

The purpose of this review was to examine if maternal hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) result in an increased risk of atopic dermatitis or eczema (AD-E) in childhood. We searched the databases of PubMed, Embase, CENTRAL, Web of Science, and Scopus for cohort or case-control studies up to 25th June 2023. Random-effects meta-analysis was done to generate the odds ratio (OR) of the association between HDP/GDM and AD-E. Eight studies were included. Meta-analysis of five studies showed that GDM in the mother was associated with an increased risk of AD-E in the offspring (OR: 1.35 95% CI: 1.13, 1.61 I2 = 61%). Pooled analysis of four studies demonstrated no association between HDP and risk of AD-E in the offspring (OR: 1.03 95% CI: 0.99, 1.08 I2 = 0%). The results did not change on sensitivity analysis and subgroup analysis based on study type, method of AD-E diagnosis, and sample size. This meta-analysis suggests that GDM may significantly increase the risk of AD-E in childhood, however, HDP does not seem to impact the risk of AD-E. Evidence is limited by the small number of studies and high interstudy heterogeneity. Further studies are needed to improve the quality of evidence.
