Factors Associated with Affective Symptoms and Quality of Life in Patients with Atopic Dermatitis

The aim of this study was to detect demographic and clinical factors associated with affective symptoms and quality of life in patients with severe atopic dermatitis. First, one-way analyses of variance and correlations were performed to compare a large set of qualitative and quantitative clinical v...
