Epidemiology of mental health comorbidity in patients with atopic dermatitis: An analysis of global trends from 1998 to 2022

“…Subsequently, 221 articles were subjected to full‐text review; 178 were removed because they lacked clear diagnostic criteria, the type of research was unclear, the irrelevance of the topic, lack of English language, missing data, no reporting of ethical content or informed consent, or duplication. Ultimately, 43 studies 8,12,13,15,17,23–60 were included in the meta‐analysis and all were published between 1998 and 2022. Among the retrieved articles, articles reporting AD with comorbid bipolar disorder, manic episodes, somatic symptoms, conduct disorder, alexithymia, obsessive‐compulsive diseases, attachment disorder, self‐reported memory impairment or autism spectrum disorder (ASD) ( n = 16, in total) were few; therefore, these were not included in the meta‐analysis.…”

“…The prevalence of ADHD in patients with AD was reported by 10 studies 12,15,23,27,30,34,36,46,52,59 ; all were published between 2009 and 2021. Forty‐two studies reported the prevalence of depression with AD 8,12,13,15,17,23–54,56–60 and were published between 2004 and 2021. Twenty‐four studies reported the prevalence of anxiety in AD, 8,12,13,17,23,26,27,29,31,34–37,42,43,45–49,52,56,58,60 between 2012 and 2022.…”

Seven studies analysed the prevalence of suicidal ideation in patients with AD 13,23,25,33,39,40,51 and were published between 1998 and 2020.…”

Skin picking: A problem among healthcare workers?

“…The manipulation ranges from relatively normal behavior to self‐injurious pathological SP related to compulsive‐impulsive behavior or other psychiatric comorbidities causing functional interferences or distress 3,4 . Focusing on the general population, the lifetime prevalence for pathological SP is estimated at 1.4%–5.2% 3 and might be even higher in patients with skin diseases 5 . The current paper aims at orientationally assessing the occurrence of clinical signs of SP on the hands of healthcare workers (HCWs).…”
