1.We were broadly interested in what causes some children with atopic dermatitis (AD) to develop allergic and asthmatic disease (the atopic march) and are exploring potential mechanisms of this progression in a prospective early life cohort of children with AD (MPAACH).

Open Access: Temporal relationships between Staphylococcus aureus colonization, filaggrin expression, and pediatric atopic dermatitis

The authors assessed S. aureus skin colonization and atopic #dermatitis (AD) outcomes across two annual visits in the MPAACH cohort. Persistent S. aureus colonization is characterized by increased severity, allergic sensitization, and decreasing never-lesional filaggrin expression. Low never-lesional filaggrin expression positively contributes to future S.aureus colonization. Maintaining filaggrin expression may be therapeutically important to prevent colonization and worse AD outcomes.

The #Pediatric Asthma Risk Score (PARS), which was developed largely in Caucasian affluent cohorts, was tested in populations more representative of those afflicted with asthma. PARS functioned well when tested with data from a broad range of backgrounds. https://t.co/aehIBne9rr

Researchers from @CincyChildrens discovered that a variation in the NAT1 gene modifies asthma risk in children exposure to #secondhandsmoke. This genetic variation interacts with SHS exposure to increase the risk of asthma in children. #CincyKidsScience

Do aeroallergens sensitize through the skin? Children in MPAACH, the first US-based study of children with eczema, have 4x the rate of positive food and aeroallergen skin tests compared to children without eczema.
