Key clinical point: Disease burden of atopic dermatitis (AD) is associated with multiple factors, with the strongest association being with disease severity, time spent managing AD symptoms, and comorbid depression.
Major finding: Disease burden was strongly associated with AD severity (moderate: odds ratio [OR] 4.13; 95% CI 2.94-5.79 or severe: OR 13.63; 95% CI 8.65-21.5 vs mild AD), time spent managing AD symptoms (11-20 hours/week: OR 2.67; 95% CI 1.77-4.03 or ≥21 hours/week: OR 5.34; 95% CI 3.22-8.85 vs 0-4 hours/week), and comorbid depression (OR 1.44; 95% CI 1.04-2.00).
Study details: Findings are from a survey study that analyzed the responses of 1065 adults with mostly moderate or severe AD.
Disclosures: This study was partly supported by National Eczema Association. The authors declared serving as fiscal agents or receiving grants, sponsorships, honoraria, or other compensation from several sources, including the National Eczema Association.
