Low-quality evidence suggests that autumn or winter birth increases childhood AE risk compared with birth in spring.

- * The case involves a 65-year-old woman who experienced sudden pink sweating primarily affecting her armpits and pelvis, leading to staining of clothing and bed sheets.

Aim: Johnson et al. aimed to assess caregivers' willingness to treat childhood atopic dermatitis (AD) with a corticosteroid when presented with clinical trial evidence, anecdote, or both.
Setting And Design: This prospective parallel group (1: 1; eight groups) randomized control trial (RCT) was carried out with caregivers recruited from a tertiary care dermatology clinic in the USA and an online crowdsourcing platform using caregivers who may not have had a child with AD.
