RICARDO ALONSO, Orayne Ekatherina; RODRIGUEZ SANCHEZ, María Beatriz; HERNANDEZ FERNANDEZ, Miriela and ALONSO GONZALEZ, Maritza. Interesting aspects about the etiopathogenesis of atopic dermatitis. Rev.Med.Electrón. [online]. 2018, vol.40, n.4, pp.1139-1148. ISSN 1684-1824.
ABSTRACT The atopic dermatitis (DA by its acronym in Spanish) is a chronic inflammatory disease and its etiopathogenesis is multifactorial. The diversity of risk factors described in the bibliography evidences the complicatedness of the research with these aims and the interrelation among them offers a problem for the precise approach in each case, given the overlapped effects found. The aim is to give an up-dated review on atopic dermatitis etiopathogenesis and physiopathology helping to increase and up-date information on this topic. A review was carried out in articles appeared mainly in PubMed and Scielo databases during the last five years, and the results were systematized to contribute to the professional growth of health professionals working in the primary health care.
