Baseline Characteristics

We detected no significant differences in their characteristics.

Participant flow

In total, 318 pairs of infants and mothers in the Yokohama City Sakae Ward were recruited when they submitted birth cards to the ward, received the explanation about the trial, and provided informed consent on the website for this trial. Eligible pairs of infants and mothers were randomly assigned to the intervention group (n=140) or the control group (n=138). Participants in the intervention and control groups received routine postnatal care from local government services. In addition, participants in the intervention group had the option to combine routine pediatric services with teleconsultation and email newsletters without charge from the date of registration until the infant turned 4 months.

Adverse events

There were no adverse events in this trial.

Outcome measures

The primary outcomes were the prevalence of atopic dermatitis in infants, parenting stress, and mothers' mental health status at the 4-month checkup.
Secondary outcomes were breastfeeding rates and the developmental quotient of infants at the 4-month checkup.
