Key clinical point: The first exposure of pediatric individuals to general anesthesia (GA) is not associated with an increased or decreased risk of developing atopic dermatitis (AD).
Major finding: Multivariate analysis revealed that individuals who were exposed vs not exposed to GA did not have an increased or decreased risk of developing AD (adjusted hazard ratio 1.03; P = .701).
Study details: This retrospective cohort study included pediatric individuals aged ≤18 years who were (n = 7,681) or were not (n = 38,405; control individuals) exposed to GA.
Disclosures: This study was funded by a 2020 Amorepacific (South Korea) grant. The authors declared no conflicts of interest.
