Cicatricial alopecia can produce major psychosocial disturbance. This study aimed to evaluate epidemiological features of primary cicatricial alopecia (PCA). Epidemiological and histological types of scarring alopecia were determined. The chi-squared test and t-test were performed to examine the relationship between different variables using SPSS 16. A total of 97 cases, 35 (36.1%) men and 62 (63.9%) women, with an average age of 37 (SD=12.7), were included in this study. The female/male (F/M) ratio was 1.7:1 for total cases, 1.92:1 for the lymphocytic type, and 1:1.5 for the neutrophilic type. No relationship was found between type of job (indoor or outdoor), clinical findings and histological types. Discoid lupus erythematous (DLE) was the most common histological type (63.9%). PCA was found to mainly affect middle-aged individuals. The high percentage of DLE in the present study is in agreement with some similar studies.
瘢痕性脱发可导致严重的心理社会障碍。本研究旨在评估原发性瘢痕性脱发(PCA)的流行病学特征。确定了瘢痕性脱发的流行病学和组织学类型。使用SPSS 16进行卡方检验和t检验以检验不同变量之间的关系。本研究共纳入97例患者,其中男性35例(36.1%),女性62例(63.9%),平均年龄37岁(标准差=12.7)。总病例的男女比例为1.7:1,淋巴细胞型为1.92:1,中性粒细胞型为1:1.5。未发现工作类型(室内或室外)、临床发现与组织学类型之间存在关联。盘状红斑狼疮(DLE)是最常见的组织学类型(63.9%)。发现PCA主要影响中年个体。本研究中DLE的高比例与一些类似研究一致。
