Skin Dialogues in Atopic Dermatitis

Elena Porumb-Andrese et al. Diagnostics (Basel). .

Abstract

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic skin disorder associated with significant quality-of-life impairment and increased risk for allergic and non-allergic comorbidities. The aim of this review is to elucidate the connection between AD and most common comorbidities, as this requires a holistic and multidisciplinary approach. Advances in understanding these associations could lead to the development of highly effective and targeted treatments.

Keywords: atopic dermatitis; cardiometabolic risk; comorbidities; neoplasia risk.
