- Abstract
A comment was made on a study titled "Evaluation of a paraffin-based moisturizer in children with atopic dermatitis: A double-blind, randomized controlled trial." The comment raises concerns about the study's limitations. One limitation is the low concentration of ceramides in the ceramide-based moisturizer used in the study, compared to other ceramide-based moisturizers on the market. Another limitation is the presence of paraffin in both tested moisturizers, which may have confounded the results. The comment suggests that repeating the study with a ceramide-based moisturizer with a higher concentration of ceramides and without paraffin would provide a more robust evaluation. The comment emphasizes the importance of conducting head-to-head trials to compare different types of moisturizers for patients with atopic dermatitis.
