The aim of the study is to determine the relationship between insulin resistance and disease duration and severity of atopic dermatitis.
The aim of the study is to determine the relationship between insulin resistance and disease duration and severity of atopic dermatitis. EASI and SCORAD values and disease duration of atopic dermatitis patients are calculated during the examination. HOMA-IR blood test result is compared with the results.
Study Type
OBSERVATIONAL
Enrollment

Bezmialem Vakif University Hospital

HOMA-IR
Patients' blood test show the result of fasting insulin (microU/L) x fasting glucose (mmol/L)/22.5
Time frame: 12 months
SCORAD index
Severity scoring of atopic dermatitis is calculated for each patient in the study. 6 intensity items (erythema, edema/papulation, oozing/crusts, excoriations, lichenification, dryness); 2 subjective symptoms(itch, sleeplessness); body surface area are studied. Max score is 103.
Time frame: 12 months
EASI index
Eczema Area and Severity Index is calculated for each patient in the study. Body surface area, 4 intensity items(erythema, induration, excoriation, lichenification) are studied. Max score is 72.
Time frame: 12 months
Duration of the disease
The time from the first onset of symptoms of the disease to the present. The relationship between insulin resistance and disease duration is examined
Time frame: 12 months
