引言 敏感皮肤是一种非常常见的病症，但没有国家之间的比较数据。目的 对不同欧洲国家的皮肤敏感度进行流行病学研究。方法在八个欧洲国家进行了民意调查：比利时、法国、德国、希腊、意大利、葡萄牙、西班牙和瑞士。该样本（4506 人）是从 15 岁或以上每个人群的代表性样本中抽取的。结果 38.4% 的人宣称皮肤敏感或非常敏感，61.6% 的人宣称皮肤轻微或不敏感。女性宣称女性皮肤比男性更敏感。 31.2%的皮肤非常敏感者、17.6%的皮肤敏感者、8.7%的轻度敏感者和3.7%的非敏感者声称患有皮肤病。皮肤敏感或非常敏感的患者更容易有儿童特应性皮炎病史。声称自己是干性或油性皮肤的受访者还表示，与正常皮肤的受访者相比，皮肤敏感或非常敏感的频率明显更高。敏感和非常敏感的皮肤在意大利和法国明显更为常见。讨论本研究是第一项比较欧洲国家皮肤敏感性的研究。患病率很高，但这些国家之间存在显着差异。皮肤病史（或治疗？）可能与皮肤敏感的发生有关。
Introduction Sensitive skin appears as a very frequent condition, but there is no comparative data between countries.Objectives To perform an epidemiological approach to skin sensitivity in different European countries.Methods An opinion poll was conducted in eight European countries: Belgium, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Portugal, Spain and Switzerland. This sample (4506 persons) was drawn from a representative sample of each population aged 15 years or older.Results Sensitive or very sensitive skin was declared by 38.4% and slightly or not sensitive skin by 61.6%. Women declared more sensitive skin than men. A dermatological disease was declared by 31.2% of people with very sensitive skin, 17.6% of those with sensitive skin, 8.7% of those with slightly sensitive skin and 3.7% of those who do not have sensitive skin. A history of childhood atopic dermatitis was more frequent in patients with sensitive or very sensitive skin. The interviewees who declared that they had dry or oily skin also reported significantly more frequently sensitive or very sensitive skin than those with normal skin. Sensitive and very sensitive skins were clearly more frequent in Italy and France.Discussion This study is the first study that compares skin sensitivity in European countries. Prevalence is high, but significant differences are noted between these countries. Dermatological antecedents (or treatments?) could be involved in the occurrence of skin sensitivity.
