“Declare the past, diagnose the present, foretell the future.”

– Hippocrates

Atopic dermatitis is a chronic disease with a genetic predisposition characterized by a rash, intense skin itching and suppressed immune functions of the skin.

It usually begins in childhood and people who have atopic dermatitis have hypersensitive skin, as well as a reduced threshold of irritation. As a result, atopic dermatitis is often associated with asthma, allergies, and chronic dermatitis.

Atopic dermatitis

Epidemiology, Etiology and Diagnosis

Atopic dermatitis occurs in 3-15% of the total population:

  • Children 5-20%
  • Adults 2-10%

The exact cause of the eczema is not completely clear: genetic predisposition – the phyllagrin gene, skin barrier disorder, “Hygiene hypothesis” or intestinal dysbiosis, which occurs in 80-90% of children with atopic dermatitis.

Diagnosis is based on blood tests and skin allergy testing for inhaled or nutritional antigens.

Treatment

Mostly symptomatic:

  • topical steroids or calcineurin inhibitors (Elidel)
  • antihistamines
  • antibiotics for suspected skin bacterial infection
  • and/or oral corticosteroids – eczema returns after discontinuation

They are effective but can also cause serious side effects if taken over a long period of time.
