Burnout syndrome is a mental health condition related to chronic occupational stress; its prevalence, as well as its relationship with other mental health disorders in physicians, has become a topic of growing interest. However, no studies with large sample sizes evaluate this association in dermatologists. With this background, a cross-sectional study was designed, which included 420 Spanish dermatologists; the mean age was 44.5 years (12.39), and 62% (260/420) were women. Eleven percent (45/420) of the participants presented a moderate risk of burnout, more than half of the sample had at least one of the burnout symptoms, 47% (198/420) had some degree of anxiety, and 20.3% (85/420) presented some degree of depression. Less than 1% (4/420) demonstrated a high risk of alcohol use disorder. Being female was associated with a higher risk of depression and anxiety. Meanwhile, men and residents showed an increasedrisk of alcohol use disorder. Burnout and its domains showed a significative association with depression and anxiety, while no relationship with alcohol abuse was observed.
burnout 综合征是一种与慢性职业压力相关的心理健康状况；其患病率，以及它与医生中其他心理健康障碍的关系，已成为一个日益引起关注的话题。然而，没有研究表明在皮肤科医生中存在这种相关性。有鉴于此，进行了一项横断面研究，共纳入 420 名西班牙皮肤科医生；平均年龄为 44.5 岁（12.39），62%（260/420）为女性。11%（45/420）的参与者存在中度 burnout 风险，超过一半的样本至少存在一种 burnout 症状，47%（198/420）存在一定程度的焦虑，20.3%（85/420）存在一定程度的抑郁。不到 1%（4/420）的人存在酒精使用障碍的高风险。女性与抑郁和焦虑的风险增加有关。与此同时，男性和住院医师表现出更高的酒精使用障碍风险。 burnout 及其各领域与抑郁和焦虑有显著相关性，而与酒精滥用无关。
