Background: The relationship between infantile seborrheic dermatitis (ISD) and infantile atopic dermatitis (IAD) is controversial.
Methods: Ninety-six children aged 2-12 months diagnosed with atopic dermatitis and a comparable control group of healthy children were evaluated. Demographic data, personal history of ISD and personal or family history of atopy was considered in both groups.
Results: A personal history of ISD was found in 49% of IAD cases and in 17% of controls (P < 0.05).
Conclusions: Our result and those of the literature do not demonstrate a relationship between ISD and IAD. However, a number of cases of AD have an ISD-like clinical picture. It is probable that ISD is a syndrome and not a disease.

Characteristics of suitable cases for treatment with nemolizumab based on clinical findings and cutaneous adverse events.

Nemolizumab is an effective treatment for pruritus in atopic dermatitis, but it has a relatively high incidence of cutaneous adverse events (cAEs). To optimize the use of nemolizumab, we investigated the relationship between baseline severity in specific body areas and the frequency of cAEs. Our findings revealed that cases who discontinued treatment with nemolizumab had more severe erythema and edema/papulation on the trunk than those who continued nemolizumab.

Objectives: Atopic skin plays a significant etiological role in the development of prurigo nodularis (PN). In addition to atopic dermatitis (AD), atopic skin diathesis without eczema can also contribute to the development of PN due to its association with itching. This study aims to evaluate PN in terms of AD/atopic skin diathesis, associated comorbidities, and clinical findings.
