Paradoxically, immunosuppressive therapy for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) can induce psoriasiform or eczematous eruptions. This case-control study identified infliximab exposure, Crohn's disease, and history of inflammatory skin conditions as significant risk factors for these eruptions in children with IBD. Our results also showed possible trends in age and race.
