Key clinical point: A causal relationship was observed between genetically related atopic dermatitis (AD) and brain cancer, delineating AD as a potential risk factor for brain cancer.
Major finding: The presence of AD led to an increased risk for brain cancer (odds ratio 1.0005; P = .0096); however, no significant causal association was observed on conducting reverse Mendelian randomization analysis.
Study details: This cohort study analyzed the data on AD-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms of patients with AD (n = 15,208) and control individuals without AD (n = 367,046) from the FinnGen database (10th release) and the summary data of patients with brain cancer (n = 606) and control individuals without cancer (n = 372,016) from the IEU Open GWAS database.
Disclosures: This study did not disclose any funding source. The authors declared no conflicts of interest.
