Demodex mites (DM) are the most common ectoparasites of humans. Demodex folliculorum and Demodex brevis are the two species we are hosts for. Through the years there have been more data proving DM to be a pathogenic parasite. To this date it has not clear which groups of patients are clearly prone to develop demodicosis.
To present a literature review in order to analyse and establish whether immunosuppressed patients are prone to develop demodicosis.
Data were collected mostly from the PubMed database and through citation searching of the articles.
A total amount of 23 case reports and 13 original works were included. Out of them, 4 original works deny the correlation between demodicosis and immunosuppression whereas 9 original works suggest that correlation.
Demodicosis seems to be correlated with immunosuppression, but it requires more study in the future.
蠕形螨是人类最常见的体表寄生虫。毛囊蠕形螨和皮脂蠕形螨是寄生于人体的两个种类。多年来，越来越多的数据证明蠕形螨是一种致病寄生虫。迄今为止，尚不清楚哪些患者群体明显易患蠕形螨病。
进行文献综述，以分析并确定免疫抑制患者是否易患蠕形螨病。
数据主要从PubMed数据库收集，并通过对文章的引用检索获取。
共纳入23篇病例报告和13篇原创作品。其中，4篇原创作品否认蠕形螨病与免疫抑制之间的相关性，而9篇原创作品表明存在这种相关性。
蠕形螨病似乎与免疫抑制有关，但未来还需要更多研究。
