Environmental risk factors and their role in the management of atopic dermatitis.
The authors review the role of prenatal exposures, irritants and pruritogens, pathogens, climate factors, including temperature, humidity, ultraviolet radiation, outdoor and indoor air pollutants, tobacco smoke exposure, water hardness, urban vs. rural living, diet, breastfeeding, probiotics and prebiotics on atopic dermatitis (AD). They argue that understanding these complex risk factors is crucial to developing targeted interventions to prevent the disease in millions.
