Effect of Acne Vulgaris on Quality of Life of Teenagers Compared to Parent Perceived Effect on Quality...

AcneQuality of Life

Acne vulgaris is a common problem in the adolescent community. Past research has shown that acne affects teenager's self-esteem and mood. However, no research has evaluated the parent perception of their teenager's acne in comparison to the severity of acne and the patient's own reported quality of life. It is hypothesized that parents of teenagers underestimate how much acne vulgaris affects their teenager's skin disease-related quality of life. Also that teenager's perception of the severity of their acne is greater versus their parent's perception. We believe that increased acne severity based on clinician assessment will correlate with worse quality of life. Teenagers between 12 and 17 years old with a diagnosis of acne by a pediatric dermatologist will be enrolled in this study. The study consists of 1 visit, questions regarding demographics, assessment of the teen's acne, the Skindex-Teen quality of life survey (modified for parents), and 2 Likert scales will be completed. In addition, the clinician will score the teen's acne using the standardized Investigator Global Assessment tool. Statistical analysis will compare teen subject answers to the Skindex-Teen with their parent's answers. Also analyzed will be the severity of acne and differences between the clinician IGA score and Skindex-Teen responses

The Benefit of a Deep Cleansing Gel in the Management of Mild to Moderate Truncal Acne

Acne

Acne vulgaris is a chronic inflammatory disease, mainly of the face, but also of the trunk. Acne may be caused by internal and external factors. Only a very small amount of data exists concerning truncal acne. The condition affects about 9% of the population worldwide, with 50% of subjects with facial acne also presenting with truncal acne. Until recently, clinicians frequently followed the same therapeutic approach as for facial acne, with treatment adherence remaining an issue. This study assessed assessed the benefit of a cleansing gel containing salicylic acid 2%, zinc gluconate 0.2% and Lipo hydroxy acids (LHA) 0.05%, used daily for 84 days in mild to moderate truncal acne.

Comparison of Malassezia Spp Proportions in Inflammatory and Non Inflammatory Facial Acne Vulgaris...

Acne Vulgaris

Acne vulgaris (AV) is a common inflammatory condition involving pilosebaceous unit. The pathogenesis of acne is multifactorial and skin microbiome is considered to be one of the key factors that aggravate inflammation. Malassezia spp is normal flora on the skin and several studies have reported its corelation with inflammatory AV lesion. Malassezia have higher lipase activity compared to Propionibacterium acnes which triggers an increase in free fatty acid and glycerol, the chemotactic factors towards neutrophils and inducing inflammation in AV. Malassezia folliculitis (MF) is sometimes confused with and may present together with AV. Pruritus usually presents in MF but some studies also reported itching as common symptom in AV. The objectives of this study were to identify the presence and the distribution of Malassezia spp. in facial AV lesions, to compare the distribution of Malassezia spp. between inflammatory and non-inflammatory lesions and to identify the association between Malassezia spp in acne lesions and pruritus symptom.
