[Atopic dermatitis and diabetes mellitus-is there a link?].

Background: Atopic dermatitis and diabetes mellitus are chronic, immune-mediated, inflammatory diseases that significantly affect patients' quality of life and also represent a considerable socioeconomic burden. Despite intensive research in recent decades, the possible link between these two medical conditions remains a controversial topic due to sparse and sometimes contradictory data. Nevertheless, the potential link between them is based on some recognized common pathophysiological features.

Nutritional Status in Pediatric Psoriasis: A Case-Control Study in a Tertiary Care Referral Centre.

Background: Psoriasis and obesity are chronic, inflammatory diseases, sharing certain pathophysiological factors. Psoriasis, increasingly viewed as a systemic inflammatory condition, may have various symptoms beyond the skin manifestations.

Methods: This research aimed to explore the connection between body mass index (BMI) and pediatric psoriasis, through a case-control study on 100 psoriasis cases and 100 controls who were matched in terms of age and sex.

HOMA-IR Index and Pediatric Psoriasis Severity-A Retrospective Observational Study.

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease with specific cutaneous and nail lesions. Recent data has emphasized its systemic nature, highlighting metabolic conditions found in patients. Insulin resistance was identified in adult psoriasis, sometimes related to psoriasis severity.

Association Between Increased Body Mass Index (BMI) and Atopic Dermatitis in Children Attending a Tertiary Referral Center: A Case-Control Study.

Background Atopic dermatitis (AD) and obesity represent chronic diseases, with growing worldwide prevalence, that rely on a common pathophysiological background: perpetual inflammation. Moreover, AD is considered more and more to be a beyond-the-skin disease with various associated comorbidities. This study aimed to investigate a potential link between overweight/obese status and AD in children.
