Comorbidities of rosacea

Abstract

Objective: Rosacea is a common chronic, inflammatory skin disease and some comorbid diseases often accompany the disease. We evaluated the relationship between rosacea and systemic comorbidities in our study. Materyals and Methods: Our study is a retrospective descriptive study. From XXXXXXXUniversity Medical Faculty Hospital's patient information system, 18 years and older aged, a total of 114 adult patients who were diagnosed with rosacea with at least 2-3 months of follow-up in the period between 2012-2018 were included in the study. Results: Of the 114 patients included in the study, 76.3% (n = 87) were female and 23.7% (n = 27) were male. The mean age of the patients was 46.5 ± 10.9 years, the median age was 45.0 years (min: 21.0- max: 72.0). Hypertension 19.3% (22), gastroesophageal / dyspepsia 14.9% (17), hyperlipidemia 13.2% (15), diabetes mellitus 13.2% (15), hypothyroidi 10.8% (12), obesity 9.6% (11) and depression 9% (10) were found to be the most frequently related to such diseases in our rosacea patients. Conclusion: Rosacea can be easily diagnosed by dermatological examination. And it may be a clue to dermatologists in screening of comorbid diseases related to rosacea.
