Abstract
In two previous studies I reported on some relationships between allergens and eczema sites, e.g., balsam of Peru was found to be an overrepresented allergen in patients with eczema of the forehead, cheeks, and the lower legs, using the dermatology software system DALUK (Edman, 1988). The first study (Edman, 1985) included 1016 patients tested during 1982-1983, the second (Edman, 1988) was an extended survey involving the previous patients as well as new ones, for a total of 3652 patients tested during the years 1982-1987
