Figure 2

Change in eczema area. This figure illustrates the weekly difference between control and intervention sites based on the area change from baseline in six children with atopic eczema included in a split body, controlled, physician blinded pilot study evaluating human milk and emollient versus emollient alone on eczema lesions. Each line represents one child. The difference is calculated as: control area week 1, 2, 3 or 4 divided by control area at week 0 minus intervention area week 1, 2, 3 or 4 divided by intervention area at week 0. Lines above zero represent improvement of the intervention area, and lines below zero represent the relative increase of the eczema areas of the intervention sites.
