Key clinical point: Severe atopic dermatitis (AD) is associated with higher risks for venous thromboembolism and cardiovascular diseases in both children and adults.
Major finding: Children with severe AD vs those without AD had a significantly increased risk (adjusted hazard ratio; 95% CI) for cerebrovascular accidents (2.43; 1.13-5.22), diabetes (1.46; 1.06-2.01), and deep vein thrombosis (DVT; 2.13; 1.17-3.87). Among adults, the severe AD vs non-AD group had a significantly higher risk for cerebrovascular accidents (1.21; 1.13-1.30), diabetes (1.15; 1.09-1.22), dyslipidemia (1.11; 1.06-1.17), myocardial infarction (1.27; 1.15-1.39), DVT (1.64; 1.49-1.82), and pulmonary embolism (1.39; 1.21-1.60).
Study details: This population-based cohort study included 409,431 children (age < 18 years) and 625,083 adults with AD who were matched with 1,809,029 children and 2,678,888 adults without AD, respectively.
Disclosures: This study was supported by a contract from Pfizer, Inc. Some authors declared serving as consultants for or receiving research grants, honoraria, or consulting fees from various sources, including Pfizer. AR Lemeshow declared being an employee of Pfizer, Inc.
