Abstract

Atopic eczema (AE) or atopic dermatitis is a chronic and relapsing inflammatory skin disease. The prevalence and burden of AE are increasing globally. Systemic immunomodulating medications including corticosteroids or immunosuppressive drugs are efficacious agents for difficult-to-treat or refractory moderate or severe AE, but are not used routinely due to safety concerns. Some AE patients reported using complementary and alternative medicines including Chinese herbal medicine (CHM). A Cochrane systematic review of 28 studies involving 2,306 AE participants found an oral CHM formula could improve quality of life in AE children. This article is protected by copyright.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 08 July 2018.
All research outputs
#16,728,456
of 25,385,509 outputs
Outputs from British Journal of Dermatology
#6,803
of 9,663 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#216,512
of 355,742 outputs
Outputs of similar age from British Journal of Dermatology
#109
of 172 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,385,509 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 32nd percentile – i.e., 32% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 9,663 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 9.6. This one is in the 27th percentile – i.e., 27% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 355,742 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 36th percentile – i.e., 36% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 172 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 31st percentile – i.e., 31% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
