Mental health symptoms and functional impairment in children with atopic dermatitis.
This study sought to determine the prevalence and predictors of social and behavioral symptoms and functional impairment among US children with atopic dermatitis (AD). Using MEPS data 1996-2015, findings showed that AD was associated with behavioral and functional impairment, similar to psoriasis and other common chronic conditions.

The mental health burden in acne vulgaris and rosacea: an analysis of the US National Inpatient Sample.
Little is known about the mental health (MH) hospitalization among patients with acne and rosacea. The purpose of this study was to determine the MH disorders and cost burden associated with acne and rosacea. The investigators concluded that inpatients with acne or rosacea had increased odds of comorbid MH disorders. In particular, there was an increased number of hospital admissions secondary to a primary MH disorder with coexistent acne/rosacea. MH comorbidities were associated with considerable excess costs among inpatients with acne or rosacea.

Association of vitiligo with hospitalization for mental health disorders in US adults.
The goal of this study was to examine the relationship between vitiligo and mental-health hospitalizations in the US using data from the National Inpatient Sample. Prevalence of hospitalization for mental-health disorders, length of stay (LOS), and cost of care were examined for patients with vitiligo in comparison with those without vitiligo. Hospitalization for mental-health disorders occurred more commonly in those with vitiligo. Vitiligo patients who were hospitalized with any mental-health disorder had higher LOS as well as cost of inpatient care.

Atopic dermatitis and hospitalization for mental health disorders in the United States.
Investigators analyzed data from the Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS) from 2002 to 2012 to determine the incidence of mental health (MH) emergencies with atopic dermatitis (AD). Primary admission for MH disorders associated with AD is known for adults with mood disorders, schizophrenia and developmental disorders.

Selected comorbidities of atopic dermatitis: atopy, neuropsychiatric, and musculoskeletal disorders.
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic pruritic inflammatory skin disease with substantial morbidity and quality of life impairment. This review summarizes recent developments in the atopic and neuropsychiatric comorbidities of AD. For example, it concludes that persons with AD appear to be at higher risk for multiple neuropsychiatric disorders, including depression, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, speech disorders in childhood, headaches, and seizures.

Association between atopic dermatitis and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in US children and adults.
The researchers sought to determine if childhood and adult atopic dermatitis (AD) and AD severity are associated with ADD/ADHD and to delineate the factors contributing to such an association. It found that AD was most strongly associated with severe ADHD. AD unaccompanied by other allergic disease, was also associated with increased risk of ADD/ADHD in children.

Association between atopic dermatitis and depression in US adults.
The researchers sought to determine the prevalence of depression in US adults with atopic dermatitis (AD). They concluded that approximately one in three US adults with AD reported any symptoms of depression and one in three adults with AD met diagnostic criteria for major depressive disorder.
