Rosacea prevalence varies worldwide and there is a lack of information in Brazil.
To describe the epidemiological profile of rosacea in subjects who consulted in dermatological outpatient clinics in Brazil.
MATERIALS & METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted in 13 dermatological outpatient clinics across the country. Patients with rosacea diagnosis were eligible for the study according to the investigator's clinical assessment. Clinical, social and demographic data were collected. The overall and regional rosacea prevalence was calculated, and association with baseline characteristics was analysed.
A total of 3,184 subjects were enrolled, and rosacea prevalence was 12.7%. The southern region of Brazil presented a higher prevalence, followed by the southeast. The subjects in the rosacea group were older than those without rosacea (52.5 ±14.9 vs. 47.5 ±17.5; p<0.001). Moreover, the rosacea group was associated with Fitzpatrick's phototypes I and II, Caucasian ethnicity, a family history of rosacea, and facial erythema, however, no association with gender was found. The most prevalent clinical sign and clinical subtype in rosacea patients were erythema and erythematotelangiectatic, respectively.
Rosacea is highly prevalent in Brazil, mostly in the southern region, associated with phototypes I and II and a family history.
酒渣鼻的患病率在全球范围内各不相同，巴西缺乏相关信息。
描述在巴西皮肤科门诊就诊的酒渣鼻患者的流行病学特征。
在全国13家皮肤科门诊进行了一项横断面研究。根据研究者的临床评估，确诊为酒渣鼻的患者符合研究条件。收集临床、社会和人口统计学数据。计算酒渣鼻的总体患病率和地区患病率，并分析其与基线特征的关联。
共纳入3184名受试者，酒渣鼻患病率为12.7%。巴西南部地区患病率较高，其次是东南部。酒渣鼻组受试者比无酒渣鼻者年龄更大（52.5±14.9岁对47.5±17.5岁；p<0.001）。此外，酒渣鼻组与菲茨帕特里克皮肤分型I和II、白种人种族、酒渣鼻家族史以及面部红斑有关，然而，未发现与性别有关联。酒渣鼻患者中最常见的临床体征和临床亚型分别是红斑和红斑毛细血管扩张型。
酒渣鼻在巴西患病率很高，主要集中在南部地区，与皮肤分型I和II以及家族史有关。
