The knowledge of many specific skin diseases that predominantly affect Latinos has been increasing; however, the understanding of common skin disease in Latinos is superficial. There are few prospective studies done in the Latino population and none that differentiate between diverse Latino backgrounds. In view of the expanding Latino population in this country, such research is timely.
对许多主要影响拉丁裔的特定皮肤病的认识一直在增加；然而，对拉丁裔常见皮肤病的了解却很肤浅。针对拉丁裔人群进行的前瞻性研究很少，而且没有一项研究区分不同的拉丁裔背景。鉴于该国拉丁裔人口不断增加，此类研究很及时。
