Key clinical point: Risk for acne was comparable in adolescents and adults with atopic dermatitis (AD) and matched reference individuals from the general population; however, the risk varied with age and sex, with males and older patients appearing to be at higher risk.
Major finding: Although the overall risk for acne was similar among patients with AD vs. reference individuals (hazard ratio [HR] 0.96; P = .4623), the risk was significantly higher in males with AD (HR 1.22; P = .0234) and in patients aged 30-39 (HR 1.41; P = .0156) and ≥40 (HR 2.07; P = .0002) years.
Study details: Findings are from a prospective cohort study including 6,600 adults and adolescents with AD matched with 66,000 reference individuals without AD.
Disclosures: This study did not receive any funding. The authors declared serving as an advisory board member, investigator, speaker, consultant, or receiving honoraria, fees, research funding, and research support from several sources.
