SUMMARY The glucose tolerance of thirty‐nine patients with eczema was studied by the intravenous glucose tolerance test. The glucose disappearance rate for the eczema group was 1.69 ± 0.13 mg % per min and that for the controls was 292 ± 0.12, indicating impairment of glucose tolerance in eczema patients.
