BACKGROUND
Little is known about how individuals with a predisposition for rosacea appear in childhood. This retrospective, matched control, longitudinal study examined the relationship between childhood stye and adult rosacea.
METHODS
The records of the Rochester Epidemiology Project were examined to identify patients who received care for stye or blepharitis between ages 2 and 17 years, and received care for any cause at age 40 years or older. Patients were matched by group to control subjects (1:2).
RESULTS
Patients with stye during childhood (N = 201) had a higher prevalence of adult rosacea than did control subjects (5.5% vs 1.5%, P = .01). Patients who had other childhood eye conditions without stye (N = 504) were not at higher risk.
LIMITATIONS
The study population included few minority patients.
CONCLUSIONS
The association between childhood stye and adult rosacea appears to be significant and should be examined further. Rosacea prevalence in adults may be lower (2.1%) than previously reported.
背景
对于酒渣鼻易患个体在儿童期的表现知之甚少。这项回顾性、匹配对照、纵向研究考察了儿童麦粒肿与成人酒渣鼻之间的关系。
方法
查阅罗切斯特流行病学项目的记录，以确定在2至17岁之间因麦粒肿或睑缘炎接受治疗，且在40岁及以上因任何原因接受治疗的患者。患者按组与对照对象进行匹配（1:2）。
结果
儿童期患麦粒肿的患者（N = 201）成人酒渣鼻的患病率高于对照对象（5.5%对1.5%，P = 0.01）。患有其他儿童眼部疾病但无麦粒肿的患者（N = 504）风险并未升高。
局限性
研究人群中少数族裔患者较少。
结论
儿童麦粒肿与成人酒渣鼻之间的关联似乎很显著，应进一步研究。成人酒渣鼻患病率可能低于先前报道（2.1%）。
