Abstract

Atopic Dermatitis (AD) is associated with sleep disturbance, psychosocial distress, anxiety, depression, and atopic comorbidities, which may be associated with increased headaches. We aimed to understand the association of AD and comorbid asthma, sleep and mental health disturbances with headaches throughout childhood and adolescence. Data were analyzed from The Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study, a longitudinal birth cohort study of 4898 urban children born in 1998-2000. AD was associated with headaches at age five (adjusted odds ratio [95% confidence interval]: 2.14 [1.27-3.59]), nine (1.69 [1.27-2.27]) and fifteen years (1.71 [1.37-2.14]).
