Abstract
Egg, peanut, and dust mite allergies are significant correlates of AD persisting beyond school age. There may also be increased odds in those with peripheral eosinophilia and decreased odds in those with frequent sinopulmonary infections. This highlights the importance of assessing these correlates in patients with AD and modifying the correlates that can be modified. Further studies on whether modification of these correlates and/or early aggressive AD management improves outcome are needed.
