Abstract

To the Editor: Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic, relapsing inflammatory dermatosis with impairment of skin barrier function and immune dysfunction that affects both children and adults. It is characterized by eczema-tous lesions, pruritus, sleep disturbance, and diminished quality of life. Management of mild AD relies on emol-lients, topical corticosteroids, topical calcineurin inhibitors

How strong is the evidence?

Evidence Hub reads this as a case series, done in people. Its evidence level is 5 of 5 (Very low · case / narrative / animal / in vitro / in silico). Case reports, narrative reviews, and animal, cell or computer-model studies give the weakest evidence for human health.

How the five levels of evidence work. The level is assigned automatically from the abstract and can be wrong, so check the paper.
