Key clinical point: Patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) have an increased risk for multiple neuropsychiatric conditions; however, the risk profiles for specific neuropsychiatric conditions differ with AD severity.
Major finding: Adults with AD (of any severity level) vs without AD had a higher risk for anxiety (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] 1.14, 95% CI 1.13-1.15), depression (aHR 1.14, 95% CI 1.13-1.15), and obsessive-compulsive disorder (aHR 1.48, 95% CI 1.38-1.58); the risk for autism increased in patients with mild (aHR 1.55; 95% CI 1.26-1.89) and moderate (aHR 1.40; 95% CI 1.07-1.83) AD and that for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder increased in those with mild AD (aHR 1.27; 95% CI 1.03-1.55].
Study details: This population-based cohort study included 625,083 adults with AD who were matched with 2,678,888 control adults without AD.
Disclosures: This study was supported by a contract from Pfizer, Inc. Some authors declared receiving research or fellowship funding or consultation honoraria from various sources, including Pfizer. AR Lemeshow declared being an employee of Pfizer.
