成人特应性皮炎(AD)是一种重要的皮肤病。即使在临床表现轻微的患者中,疾病负担也可能相当大。与专门针对儿童AD的文献相比,关于成人AD的文献相对较少,尽管患有严重AD的成人受该疾病的影响很大。即使AD在成人中是轻度临床疾病,该疾病的心理社会和经济负担也可能是深刻的。如果医疗保健提供者在临床遇到这些AD的非皮肤病合并症,患者可能会发现它有用。成人AD的治疗选择与儿童AD相同,但有一些修改。Semin Cutan Med Surg 31(suppl 3):S18-S22由Elsevier Inc.出版。
Atopic dermatitis (AD) in adults is an important dermatologic disease. Even in patients in whom the clinical presentation is mild, the burden of disease can be considerable. Relatively little has been published on adult AD compared to the body of literature devoted to AD in children, although adults with severe AD are greatly affected by the disease. Even when AD is a mild clinical disease in adults, the psychosocial and economic burden of the disease can be profound. Patients are likely to find it useful if these nondermatologic comorbidities of AD are addressed by health care providers in clinical encounters. The treatment options for AD in adults are the same as those for children with AD, with some modifications. Semin Cutan Med Surg 31(suppl 3):S18-S22 Published by Elsevier Inc.
