The prevalence and pathogenesis of rosacea is uncertain. Previously, studies used varying definitions of disease and have not explored the relationship of its prevalence to ultraviolet (UV) exposure or photodamage.
We investigated the prevalence of papulopustular rosacea (PPR) and its relationship to UV radiation exposure in 1000 randomly selected Irish individuals.
A total of 1000 individuals (500 with low UV exposure and 500 with high UV exposure) were examined. PPR was diagnosed using a standardized definition and photodamage was assessed using a photodamage scale.
The prevalence of PPR was 2.7%. PPR prevalence was not significantly related to photodamage or UV exposure.
The power to compare UV exposure among those with and without PPR was limited.
PPR prevalence in Ireland was 2.7%. UV radiation exposure does not appear to affect the prevalence of PPR.
酒渣鼻的患病率和发病机制尚不确定。此前的研究使用了不同的疾病定义,并未探讨其患病率与紫外线(UV)暴露或光损伤的关系。
我们调查了 1000 名随机选择的爱尔兰个体中脓疱性酒渣鼻(PPR)的患病率及其与 UV 辐射暴露的关系。
共检查了 1000 人(500 人低 UV 暴露,500 人高 UV 暴露)。使用标准化定义诊断 PPR,使用光损伤量表评估光损伤。
PPR 的患病率为 2.7%。PPR 的患病率与光损伤或 UV 暴露无显著相关性。
比较 PPR 患者和无 PPR 患者之间的 UV 暴露的能力有限。
爱尔兰 PPR 的患病率为 2.7%。UV 辐射暴露似乎不会影响 PPR 的患病率。
