Key clinical point: Risk for cutaneous infectious diseases is significantly higher in adults and children with atopic dermatitis (AD) than individuals without AD, with the risk for molluscum contagiosum being the highest.
Major finding: Patients with AD vs individuals without AD were at a significantly greater risk for molluscum contagiosum (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 5.237), followed by impetigo (aOR 2.852), chickenpox (aOR 2.251), otitis media (aOR 2.243), eczema herpeticum (aOR 1.292), viral warts (aOR 1.105), and viral conjunctivitis (aOR 1.099; all P < .001) with molluscum contagiosum having the highest comorbidity (1.06%) and shortest onset duration (77.42 days).
Study details: Findings are from a nationwide population-based study including 70,205 patients with AD and individuals without AD.
Disclosures: This study did not receive any funding. The authors declared no conflicts of interest.
