Аннотация
Ichthyosis encompasses a heterogeneous group of hereditary skin disorders, which can be present at birth or develop in childhood. The aim of the present study was to investigate the Health related quality of life (HRQoL) of patients with ichthyosis. Two questionnaires (Dermatology Life Quality Index [DLQI], and the generic Short Form [SF] - 36) and a subjective measure of disease activity employing a visual analogue scale (VAS) were mailed to 144 patients. 122 patients aged 17-78 years responded. The median for DLQI was 5.0, which was significantly higher (worse) for Lamellar ichthyosis than for X-linked recessive ichthyosis. The SF-36 showed significantly lower (worse) scores for the study group in four of the eight dimensions compared to age- and gender-adjusted Swedish norm scores. No differences in SF-36 were found between men and women or between the different groups of ichthyosis. The results demonstrate that ichthyosis has an adverse effect on HRQoL.
