This review provides a summary of key findings from 18 systematic reviews on atopic eczema, published or indexed between January 2009 and 24 August 2010. There was no good evidence on the possible benefit of organic food consumption and eczema. Maternal intake of fish or fish oil may be associated with a reduced risk of eczema in offspring, although further studies are needed. There is some evidence that partially hydrolysed infant formulas rather than standard formulas may be associated with a…

There is now reasonable evidence to suggest that antibiotic exposure in early life is associated with increased incidence of AE, but delivery by caesarean section is not, and a standardized definition of an incident case of AE for use in prevention studies is still required.

The cumulative incidence of AD was significantly lower among infants over at least 3 years of follow-up in the PHF-W group compared with the intact protein cow's milk group, and Exclusive breastfeeding should be encouraged as the primary means to prevent atopic risk.
