慢性皮肤病会影响患者皮肤以外的生活质量。这篇手稿概述了常见慢性皮肤病的负面影响，如银屑病，白癜风，痤疮和湿疹，通过经验证的生活质量工具测量。文献表明，白癜风和痤疮患者主要受其心理健康的影响，而银屑病和特应性皮炎患者则受身体和心理健康的影响。上述皮肤病的有效治疗与积极的生活质量结果相关。建议进一步研究，以更好地了解影响生活质量的因素。(C)2013前线医疗通讯
Chronic skin conditions can impact a patient's quality of life beyond the skin. This manuscript gives an overview of the negative impact of common chronic skin conditions, such as psoriasis, vitiligo, acne, and eczema measured by the validated quality of life instruments. Literature has shown that patients with vitiligo and acne are mostly affected by their psychosocial wellbeing, whereas psoriasis and atopic dermatitis patients are affected by both physical and psychosocial well-being. Effective treatments of the above skin conditions correlate with positive quality of life outcomes. Further studies are recommended to better understand factors affecting quality of life.
