Key clinical point: Probiotic supplementation reduced the clinical severity of atopic dermatitis (AD) and improved the quality of life (QoL) in adults with AD compared with control intervention.
Major finding: Probiotic vs. control intervention significantly reduced the clinical severity of AD in both the short-term (standard mean difference [SMD] 0.63; P = .04) and long-term (SMD 1.57; P < .001) and significantly improved the long-term QoL (SMD 0.74; P < .001), with a mixture of Lactobacillus salivarius and Bifidobacterium being the best supplementation for both short- and long-term outcomes (surface under the cumulative ranking 95.2%).
Study details: Finding are from a meta-analysis of nine studies including 402 adults who received probiotic supplementation (patients with AD; n = 208) or placebo or standard treatment only (control individuals; n = 194).
