Overall, 56.1% of cases were adults (mean age: 28.3 years) and 53.7% were male. The most frequent triggers were peanut (13.9%), wheat (9.4%), cashew (5.8%), shrimp (5.3%), and cow's milk (4.6%).

AD has been attracting increasing attention from both the public and academic society in China during the past 10 years. More and more dermatologists are pursuing in research on AD, covering almost all aspects of AD which span from genetics, clinical features and endotypes, to pathogenesis and innovative treatment. Chinese patients with AD share the common features with the patients from western countries on the one hand and, on the other hand, present with unique clinical and molecular phenotypes, which helps to enrich the understanding on AD and indicates special consideration for therapy.</p><p>Ethnic heterogeneity of AD has long been an interesting topic in this field. It has been reported that Chinese patients with AD are characterised with blended AD–psoriasis phenotype and endotype [<span>1</span>]. Chronic lichenification is commonly seen in Chinese patients with AD, accompanied by epidermal hyperplasia and an increased infiltration of Th17-related molecules in the lesional skin [<span>1</span>]. Recently, the application of bulk RNA-sequencing technique has revealed distinct inflammation patterns in the skin lesions of Chinese patients with AD across different ages. There is a notable upregulation in Th2 and Th17 inflammation in children, a significant increase in Th2 and Th22 inflammation in adults, and a marked decline of Th2 and Th22 inflammation in the elderly. In elderly patients with AD, genes related to skin barrier function, natural killer cells, macrophages, senescence-associated secretory phenotype and fibroblasts within the skin lesions have also been found. These findings collectively underscored the heterogeneity of AD and emphasised the urgent need for detailed researches to inform future precise therapies [<span>2</span>].</p><p>Apart from the endotype, dermatologists in China frequently encounter patients with AD with ‘atypical’ manifestations, many of them present with mild, localised or special forms of skin lesions. Unlike the referral system in western countries, where patients with skin conditions typically visit dermatologist following a referral from a primary care physician, in China, patients usually consult dermatologists directly. This practice allows Chinese dermatologists to see patients with AD with all kinds of manifestations, posing a challenge on diagnosis of AD. Researchers in China have dedicated great efforts to developing diagnostic criteria for AD (Table 1) [<span>3</span>], which have greatly advanced the understanding and awareness of AD in China. Elderly AD, a relatively new subtype distinct from infantile, childhood and adult AD, has attracted increasing attention.
