Abbreviations: AD, atopic dermatitis; BMI, body mass index; BSA, body surface area; Cer, ceramide; EASI, eczema area and severity index; Ig, immunoglobulin; LPC, lysophosphatidylcholine; LPE, lysophosphatidylethanolamine; PAF, platelet-activating factor; PC, phosphatidylcholine; SCORAD, severity scoring of atopic dermatitis; SM, sphingomyelin; Sph, sphingosine; TARC, thymus and activation regulated chemokine.

We analyzed the correlation between serum lipids concentrations and clinical and laboratory data in patients with AD (n = 179). The ρ values were calculated by Spearman's correlation test, and the P-values were adjusted using Benjamini‒Hochberg procedure. Table 3 shows the P-values supporting Figure 2.
