Comprehending Atopic Risk Elements

An Observational Study to Determine Lifestyle, Biophysical and Environmental Risk Factors in the Development of Early-onset Pediatric Atopic Dermatitis

Skin barrier impairment and familial atopy have been implicated as crucial risk factors for the development of atopic dermatitis (AD). Additional risk factors have been explored, including gestational weight, height, age, familial smoking habits, proximity to urban centers and others. However, a comprehensive study focusing on the entire spectrum of risk factors has yet to be undertaken. Such a study could enable predictive capabilities able to inform medical professionals as to a newborn's inherent risk to develop AD, and potentially recommend appropriate preventative modalities to prevent or delay disease onset.
