Abstract
Answers to a questionnaire on atopic dermatitis sent to clinicians in different countries—excluding Europe and North America—were evaluated. The questions included frequency as well as the possible role of special influencing/ aggravating factors in atopic dermatitis patients. According to the data from 19 different countries, climatologic/ geographic conditions, profession, and psychic stress have a decisive role, whereas food items have a smaller role in the course of atopic dermatitis.Keywords
