简要总结
Atopic dermatitis is a chronic skin disease characterized by a defective skin barrier, inflammation, and increased propensity for skin infections. Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that is primarily acquired through local production in the skin after ultraviolet light exposure but can also be obtained through natural and supplemental dietary sources. This randomized controlled trial will examine the effects of vitamin D repletion on atopic dermatitis severity in patients with diagnosed deficiency. The investigators hypothesize that pediatric patients with moderate or severe atopic dermatitis and vitamin D deficiency will have improved cutaneous disease after treatment with high dose as compared to standard dose vitamin D.

结局指标
主要结局
Atopic Dermatitis Severity at the Completion of Treatment
时间窗: 6 weeks
SCORAD at the 6 week study visit. The SCORAD (SCORing Atopic Dermatitis) is a clinical tool used to assess the extent and severity of eczema. The SCORAD is scored 0-103, with a higher score indicating more severe atopic dermatitis (worse outcome).
次要结局
- Time to Restart Topical Steroids(6 weeks)
