Background The STOP AD study, a randomized, open-label trial evaluating the effect of short-term (first four postnatal days to 8 weeks) skin barrier protection using AVEENO® Dermexa Fast 2) Presence of AD at 6 months or 12 months of age (p=0.009 and 0.035, respectively); 3) Persistence of AD between 6 and 12 months of age (p<0.001); 4) Development of AD with the emollient intervention. Conclusion Increased titers of S100A8/9 from skin swabs of the AF in high-risk infants at 8 weeks with FLGwt was predictive of AD developing in the first year of life and of other AD features. These findings suggest that there are different molecular pathways leading to AD in FLGmut individuals and in FLGwt individuals. Early identification of infants who are likely to develop AD will allow more targeted interventions.
