Skin health and allergy prevention in newborns
Part of Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study is testing whether special skin care routines in the first year of life can help prevent allergies and skin problems in babies who are at higher risk. It might be a good fit if your baby is a healthy full-term newborn and has at least one risk factor, like being an only child or having a family history of allergies or asthma.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at whether eating or avoiding peanuts and eggs during pregnancy can affect the baby's risk of allergies. You and your baby will be followed for a year after birth.
This study follows newborns for two years to see how their immune system develops, especially if they have a family history of eczema, asthma, or hay fever. Researchers want to learn if certain immune markers appear early in babies who later develop eczema.
This study tests a special baby formula (partially broken-down protein with added prebiotics and probiotics) to see if it helps strengthen babies' skin barrier and reduce allergy risk. It's designed for newborns who have a family history of allergies.
This study looks at whether restoring a newborn’s gut bacteria (microbiome) can improve early health. Babies are treated based on the birth conditions, especially whether delivery was vaginal or by C-section.
This study tests whether introducing common allergenic foods early and continuing them for six months can help prevent food allergies in infants. It is for babies who have not yet started these foods.
This study looks at how a baby's skin reacts to gentle massage in the first few months of life. It will help us understand how massage might support the immune system.
