Non-Linear Association of Relationship Between Serum Vitamin E and Eczema in US Adults.

ABSTRACT: Eczema is an inflammatory skin disorder that influences 10%-20% of the global population. Previous research has shown that vitamin E supplementation may alleviate eczema symptoms, but the relationship between serum vitamin E and eczema incidence remains unclear. This study was a cross-sectional analysis utilizing data from the 2005-2006 US National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES).
