Sumario:WHAT IS ALREADY KNOWN ON THIS TOPIC? Eczema is a common allergic disease in children, which seriously affects the quality of life of children and their families. WHAT IS ADDED BY THIS REPORT? The results showed that the incidence of very-early-onset eczema was 12.4%. Primiparity was associated with a higher risk of eczema [risk ratio (95% confidence interval): 1.23 (1.06–1.42)]. WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS FOR PUBLIC HEALTH PRACTICE? Very-early-onset eczema is common. Given its adverse impact on children’s health and life quality, this previously neglected public health issue needs to be prioritized. In addition, maternal parity could serve as an indicator in risk assessment and prediction for infant eczema.
