- - Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a prevalent skin condition that leads to significant personal, familial, and societal challenges, but its full impact is not completely understood.
- - A study with 204 Portuguese AD patients revealed a two-year average delay in diagnosis, high rates of allergic comorbidities, and a correlation between late-onset AD and increased post-diagnosis symptoms.
