ABSTRACT

Background:

There is controversy on whether allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) is associated with atopy. Research on eczema and the risk of ACD is mixed, and there is sparse literature on other atopic conditions.

Objective:

Our study examined the prevalence of several atopic conditions, including allergic rhinitis, eczema, asthma, and food allergies in patients with ACD, and compared these to patients without ACD.

Methods:

We retrospectively reviewed adult patients ages ≥ 18 years with ACD (n = 162) with positive patch testing results and documented any history of atopy, including childhood eczema, asthma, allergic rhinitis, and immunoglobulin E-mediated food allergy. The prevalence of atopic conditions was compared between our ACD cohort and controls without ACD (n = 163) from our electronic medical records system (age and gender matched).

Results:

Among our patients with ACD, 53 (33%) had allergic rhinitis, 22 (14%) had childhood eczema, 32 (20%) had asthma, and 8 (5%) had food allergies. We observed that the odds of atopy overall (n = 76) in the ACD group compared with the control group were increased (odds ratio [OR] 1.88; p = 0.007). Allergic rhinitis was the highest risk factor (n = 53) with an OR of 12.64 (p < 0.001). Childhood eczema (n = 22) was also increased in the ACD group (OR 2.4; p = 0.026). The odds of asthma and food allergy in the ACD group were also increased; however, the difference was not statistically significant from the control group (OR 1.76 [p = 0.071] and OR 2.76 [p = 0.139], respectively).

Conclusion:

Patients with ACD had increased odds of eczema, allergic rhinitis, and atopic conditions overall. Asthma and food allergies were not found to have a statistically significant correlation. Larger studies that delve into atopic risk factors in ACD would be important to confirm these findings.
