寻常性痤疮是一种常见的皮肤状况，影响大多数青少年。它对生活质量和社会心理健康有重大影响。这项研究的目的是检查痤疮对青少年的心理社会影响和生活质量的变化，并揭示性别之间可能产生的影响的差异。此外，对痤疮严重程度与生活质量以及心理社会压力之间的关系进行了调查。本研究包括164名平均年龄为12-18岁的青少年，他们被诊断患有寻常性痤疮，以前没有接受过任何治疗。对照组由188名健康志愿者组成。痤疮严重程度由全球痤疮分级系统评估。所有患者均填写了儿童皮肤病生活质量指数、儿童生活质量问卷（PedsQL）和优势与困难问卷（SDQ）。病例组SDQ和PedsQL评分明显降低。在对照组中，痤疮严重程度和量表得分在性别之间没有明显的相关性。痤疮严重程度与心理社会挑战之间没有明显的相关性。本研究结果表明，痤疮对青少年的生活质量有显著影响，这对他们的社会心理生活有影响。本研究的另一个重要发现是，生活质量的恶化不受持续时间、痤疮严重程度和年龄等因素的影响。
Acne vulgaris is a common skin condition which affects most adolescents. It has a major impact on quality of life and psychosocial well-being. The aims of the study were to examine the psychosocial effects of acne on adolescents and changes in quality of life, and to reveal any difference in the possible effect between genders. In addition, an investigation of the association between acne severity and quality of life as well as psychosocial stress was conducted. The present study included 164 adolescents with a mean age of 12–18 years and was diagnosed with acne vulgaris without any previous treatment. The control group consisted of 188 healthy volunteers. Acne severity was evaluated by the global acne grading system. All patients filled in a Children's Dermatology Life Quality Index, Pediatric Quality of Life Questionnaire (PedsQL), and a Strength and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ). The scores of SDQ and PedsQL were significantly lower in the case group. There was no significant correlation found between the genders in the control group for acne severity and scale scores. No significant correlation was found between acne severity and psychosocial challenges. The results of the present study show that acne has a significant effect on quality of life for adolescents, and this has an impact on their psychosocial life. Another important finding of the present study is that worsening in quality of life is not affected by some factors such as duration, severity of acne and age.
