背景资料：虽然长期以来一直怀疑情绪压力会加剧寻常痤疮，以前的报告解决其对痤疮严重程度的影响主要是轶事。目的：通过评估非检查和检查期间痤疮严重程度的变化，阐明压力和痤疮恶化之间的可能关系，并使用先前验证的量表评估这些严重程度变化与感知的检查压力之间的可能关系测量痤疮的严重程度和感知的压力。设计：前瞻性队列研究。设置：一般大学社区。参与者：22名大学生志愿者样本（15名女性和7名男性），具有最低限度的寻常痤疮-在光数字利兹痤疮量表上严重程度为0.5（基线评分，0.50-1.75）。主要结果测量：使用利兹痤疮量表对参与者的痤疮严重程度进行评分，结果：受试者的痤疮严重程度和平均感知压力评分均高于对照组（P
Background: Although emotional stress has long been suspected to exacerbate acne vulgaris, previous reports addressing its influence on acne severity have been mainly anecdotal.Objectives: To elucidate the possible relationship between stress and acne exacerbation by evaluating changes in acne severity during nonexamination and examination periods and to assess the possible relationship of these changes in severity with perceived examination stress by using previously validated scales measuring acne severity and perceived stress.Design: Prospective cohort study.Setting: General university community.Participants: A volunteer sample of 22 university students (15 women and 7 men) with a minimum acne vulgar-is severity of 0.5 on the photonumeric Leeds acne scale (baseline scores, 0.50-1.75).Main Outcome Measures: Participants were graded on their acne severity using the Leeds acne scale, and had their subjective stress levels assessed with the Perceived Stress Scale questionnaire during both nonexamination and examination periods.Results: Subjects had a higher mean grade of acne severity and mean perceived stress score (P
