Description
Summary:We investigated the association between atopic dermatitis (AD) and eating disorders through a cross-sectional study of US adults in the All of Us Research Program, a diverse cohort of over 250 000 participants with a focus on populations traditionally under-represented in biomedical research. Using multivariable analysis, we found that AD was significantly associated with all eating disorders tested, with binge eating disorder having the greatest multivariable odds ratio of 3.58 (95% confidence interval 2.48–5.02, P < 0.001) when adjusted for age, sex, ethnicity and race.
