Severe atopic dermatitis may be tied to depression, internalizing behaviors in childhood and adolescence, researchers say

Healio (9/10, Forand) reported, “Severe atopic dermatitis is associated with depression and internalizing behaviors in childhood and adolescence,” investigators concluded in a “longitudinal, population-based cohort study” that “included 11,181 children from birth through age 10 using data from the U.K. Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children.” The findings were published online in JAMA Dermatology.
