Though relatively well-investigated in adults, the impact of skin disease on the health-related quality of life (HRQL) of adolescents has only recently begun to be systematically evaluated. The primary goal of this article is to critically review previous research that has examined the relationship between HRQL and three types of skin disease commonly experienced by adolescents, namely acne vulgaris, alopecia areata, and atopic dermatitis. A secondary goal is to provide strategies to adolescent medicine physicians that will enable them to more effectively manage the psychological components of their patients dermatological conditions.
虽然在成年人中已有相对充分的研究，但皮肤病对青少年健康相关生活质量（HRQL）的影响直到最近才开始得到系统评估。本文的主要目的是批判性地回顾以往研究，这些研究探讨了HRQL与青少年常见的三种皮肤病之间的关系，即寻常痤疮、斑秃和特应性皮炎。次要目的是为青少年医学医生提供策略，使他们能够更有效地管理患者皮肤病的心理因素。
