Parent report of sleep health and attention regulation in a cross-sectional study of infants and preschool-aged children with atopic dermatitis.
Older children with atopic dermatitis (AD) suffer from poor sleep and attention problems. However, until recently, the dearth of developmentally sensitive assessment tools impeded characterization in younger children. In this study the investigators aimed to characterize sleep and attention problems in young children with AD and identify modifiable factors. The investigators concluded that more severe AD correlates with poor sleep health and attention dysregulation.

Determining levers of cost-effectiveness for screening infants at high risk for peanut sensitization before early peanut introduction.
The authors sought to identify scenarios in which current early peanut introduction guidelines would be cost-effective. They found that the current screening approach to early peanut introduction could be cost-effective at a particular health utility for an in-clinic reaction, skin prick test sensitivity and specificity, and high baseline peanut allergy prevalence among high-risk infants. However, such conditions are unlikely to be plausible to achieve realistically. They recommend further research to define the health state utility associated with reaction location.
