This review focuses primarily on the beneficial effects for human health of exposure to ultraviolet radiation (UVR). UVR stimulates anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive pathways in skin that modulate psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, and vitiligo; suppresses cutaneous lesions of graft-versus-host disease; and regulates some infection and vaccination outcomes. While polymorphic light eruption and the cutaneous photosensitivity of systemic lupus erythematosus are triggered by UVR, polymorphic light eruption also frequently benefits from UVR-induced immunomodulation. For systemic diseases such as multiple sclerosis, type 1 diabetes, asthma, schizophrenia, autism, and cardiovascular disease, any positive consequences of UVR exposure are more speculative, but could occur through the actions of UVR-induced regulatory cells and mediators, including 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D3, interleukin-10, and nitric oxide. Reduced UVR exposure is a risk factor for the development of several inflammatory, allergic, and autoimmune conditions, including diseases initiated in early life. This suggests that UVR-induced molecules can regulate cell maturation in developing organs.

Little is known about mental health (MH) emergencies in atopic dermatitis (AD) and their financial burden. We sought to determine hospitalization rates and costs of MH disorders in AD patients. We analyzed data from the Nationwide Inpatient Sample from 2002 to 2012, containing a representative 20% sample of US hospitalizations. Overall, 835 AD (1.36%) and 2,434,703 non-AD (0.75%) patients had a primary admission for an MH disorder. Atopic dermatitis patients admitted for MH disorders were more likely to be younger, Asian, of black race, and in a higher income quartile and have an increasing number of chronic conditions. In multivariable logistic regression models adjusting for demographics, AD was associated with a primary admission for MH disorders in adults, including mood disorders, schizophrenia, and developmental disorders. Atopic dermatitis was not associated with a primary admission for an MH disorder in children. There were an estimated US $183,821,629 excess costs of care annually for MH disorders in inpatients with versus without AD. In conclusion, AD was associated with higher odds of hospitalization for all MH disorders and substantial excess costs of inpatient care.

Background: Recent data suggest depression has been linked to chronic skin diseases, including atopic dermatitis (AD), urticaria, and psoriasis. This study compared mental illnesses in patients with AD with those of patients with nonatopic eczema, urticaria, and psoriasis in Korea. Methods: A cross-sectional study design was used, analyzing data from the 2015 Korean National Health Insurance Research Database, a survey of 42,641 AD and 139,486 non-AD (nonatopic eczema, urticaria, and psoriasis) patients (103,938 males, 78,189 females) classified by age: infant, aged 0-3 years; early childhood, aged 4-8 years; late childhood, aged 9-12 years; adolescent, aged 13-18 years; adult, aged 19-64 years; elderly, aged above 65 years. Multiple logistic regression analysis was performed, and the odds ratio (OR) of various mental illnesses - attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorder (ASD), conduct disorder, depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, schizophrenia, and sleep disorder - were calculated for patients with and without AD. Results: The incidence of depression was not significantly different between AD and non-AD patients. Severe AD showed a high OR of depression (moderate AD OR=1.75; severe AD OR=3.15, P<0.0001). Patients with AD had significantly higher incidence of ADHD (OR=1.48; 95% CI=1.27-1.72), ASD (OR=1.54; 95% CI=1.19-1.99), and conduct disorder (OR=2.88; 95% CI=1.52-5.45). Conclusion: Patients with AD were not found to have higher incidence of depression than non-AD patients. However, severe AD patients were determined to have a significantly higher incidence of depression. Therefore, the severity of dermatitis is thought to contribute to depression. Mental illnesses found to be significantly higher in AD patients were ADHD, ASD, and conduct disorder.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory disease that may be associated with a number of comorbidities including psychosocial disorders, which are the primary focus of this article. The data presented is based on a literature search in PubMed and subsequent screening of relevant review articles and guidelines. There is a greater prevalence of depression, anxiety, sleep disorders and suicidal ideation among individuals with AD. The disease negatively impacts patients' quality of life. Children with AD have been shown to more commonly exhibit signs of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. Only little data exists on the association of AD with schizophrenia, eating disorders or obsessive-compulsive disorder. There is a great need for research in the field of AD-related comorbidities, especially with respect to the question as to whether and how novel treatment options may potentially affect these comorbidities.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory disease. During the last years, researchers have focused on a variety of associated comorbidities, especially psychosocial disease. This article aims at giving an overview over recent data. A systematic literature research was performed in PubMed including data from the time period January 1, 2018 until March 1, 2020. Patients with AD frequently suffer from cocomitant depression, anxiety, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. There is less evidence about the relation between AD and schizophrenia, eating disorder, and obsessive compulsive disorder. There is still great need for research in the connection between AD and psychosocial disease, particularly about the pathogenesis and the influence of new therapies.
