Abstract:
The natural course of atopic dermatitis (AD) has been a key subject with major concerns of physicians and patients.Tne pathogenesis of AD is complicated, which is associated with genetic, immunological,environmental and lifestyle factors, resulting in skin barrier impairment and immune system dysfunction.Therefore, there are individual differences in the age of onset, duration, aggravation, prognostic factors for remission and response to treatment.In recent years, with evidence of genetic research and a large amount of clinical retrospective studies,we have a more comprehensive understanding of the natural course of AD,which will help develop individualized treatment and evaluation strategies.
