Key clinical point: The presence of atopic dermatitis (AD) symptoms in children during early life is associated with increased likelihood of pain at 10 years of age, suggesting a prospective influence of AD on pain experiences in children.
Major finding: Children with AD-like symptoms at 6 and 15 months of age had a significantly higher risk of reporting any pain (relative risk [RR] 1.75; 95% CI 1.15-2.66) and multisite pain (RR 1.67; 95% CI 1.18-2.37), respectively, at age 10 years.
Study details: This prospective study analyzed the data of 1302 and 874 children from the Generation XXI birth cohort for AD-like symptoms at ages 6 months and 15 months, respectively, by interviewing parents; data on pain history in the last 3 months at age 10 years was collected using structured questionnaires for parents and children.
Disclosures: This study was funded by the European Regional Development Fund, through COMPETE 2020 Operational Programme 'Competitiveness and Internationalization,' projects at the Univeridade do Porto, Portugal, and others. The authors declared no conflicts of interest.
