This study aims to investigate the frequency of fibromyalgia syndrome and to specify fibromyalgia syndrome-associated clinical symptoms in patients with acne vulgaris.
Eighty-eight patients (28 males, 60 females; mean age 23.2±5.1 years; range 18 to 40 years) with acne vulgaris and age, sex- and body mass index-similar 76 healthy controls (14 males, 62 females; mean age 24.5±2.9 years; range 18 to 35 years) were included. Acne vulgaris was evaluated by using the Global Acne Scale, while Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale was used to evaluate anxiety.
Fibromyalgia-associated pain, sleep disturbance, anxiety, and menstrual cycle disturbance were significantly more frequent in patients with acne vulgaris than controls. Also, the severity of anxiety and the number of tender points were significantly higher in the acne vulgaris patients than controls.
This study indicates that patients with acne vulgaris have increased frequency of fibromyalgia syndrome than healthy controls (21.6% versus 5.3%, respectively).
本研究旨在调查寻常痤疮患者中纤维肌痛综合征的发生率,并明确与纤维肌痛综合征相关的临床症状。
纳入88例寻常痤疮患者(28例男性,60例女性;平均年龄23.2±5.1岁;年龄范围18至40岁),以及年龄、性别和体重指数与之相似的76例健康对照者(14例男性,62例女性;平均年龄24.5±2.9岁;年龄范围18至35岁)。采用全球痤疮量表评估寻常痤疮,同时使用医院焦虑抑郁量表评估焦虑情况。
寻常痤疮患者中与纤维肌痛相关的疼痛、睡眠障碍、焦虑和月经周期紊乱明显比对照组更常见。此外,寻常痤疮患者的焦虑严重程度和压痛点数量明显高于对照组。
本研究表明,寻常痤疮患者中纤维肌痛综合征的发生率高于健康对照者(分别为21.6%和5.3%)。
