It might be possible to develop a simple test to identify newborn children who are at risk of later developing, the Barrier Dysfunction in Atopic Newborns Study , several biomarkers were found in the skin cells of newborns that were predictive not only for having AD but also for having more severe disease.
These findings could hopefully be used to help identify children"so that preventive strategies can target these children...and decrease the incidence of this common disease," she added. The prevalence of AD was higher among children born at term than among the preterm children , and the median time to onset was shorter . There were also differences in the EASI scores among those who developed AD; median scores were higher in the children born at term than in the preterm children .TARC, IL-8, and IL-18 Predictive of AD
This doubled risk was seen not only among the children born at term but also among those born preterm, although the data were only significant with regard to the children born at term. "This is important, as these findings shows that TARC levels predict atopic dermatitis that occurred many months later," Halling said.
"You found this significant association mainly in the newborn children born at term, and the association in the preterm babies wasn't as high. Is that anything to do with how they were taken care of in the hospital?," Murrell asked.
