Causal analysis shows evidence of atopic dermatitis leading to an increase in vitamin D levels

2020-04-23

Atopic dermatitis (AD) patients have been observed to have lower vitamin D levels. Previous studies have found little evidence that vitamin D levels causally influence the risk of AD, but the reverse direction has not yet been investigated.
