Occupational contact dermatitis (OCD) is an eczematous local inflammatory skin irritation caused by repeated use of hand sanitizer and other chemical substances. Occupational irritant contact dermatitis (OICD) and occupational allergic contact dermatitis (OACD) are the two variants of CD that cannot be identified clinically. Hand dermatitis (HD) is typically assessed as a clinical consequence because it affects the hands most frequently at work as per epidemiological studies on OCD. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) 2020 standards were followed when conducting this umbrella review. We used the search terms "Occupational Contact Dermatitis AND COVID-19" to search for the most pertinent papers in full text on the databases PubMed/MedLine, ScienceDirect, and PubMed Central (PMC). Additionally, the reference section of the papers was used to find more articles. A total of 11,646 results were found, and eight papers remained after applying the inclusion criteria (full-text papers, English language, studies published in the previous 10 years, involving humans, and only systematic reviews). After completing the title and abstract screening, we obtained five papers. Next, the full-text screening and AMSTAR quality check were completed, yielding the same five papers. After searching ScienceDirect, five papers that met the inclusion criteria were included, and six papers were selected from the references, yielding a total of 11 papers. The causes of occupational dermatitis from protective face masks are discussed in this review. We anticipate an increase in the incidence of occupational dermatitis linked to face mask use given that a large segment of healthcare workers (HCWs) wear protective face masks. To understand the prevalence and available therapies for mask-related occupational dermatitis, further well-designed research is required.
职业性接触性皮炎（OCD）是一种湿疹性局部皮肤炎症，由反复使用洗手液和其他化学物质引起。职业性刺激性接触性皮炎（OICD）和职业性过敏性接触性皮炎（OACD）是接触性皮炎的两种变体，临床上无法鉴别。手部皮炎（HD）通常作为一种临床后果进行评估，因为根据关于职业性接触性皮炎的流行病学研究，它在工作中最常影响手部。进行这项综合性综述时遵循了系统评价和Meta分析的首选报告项目（PRISMA）2020标准。我们使用检索词“职业性接触性皮炎与2019冠状病毒病”在PubMed/MedLine、ScienceDirect和PubMed Central（PMC）数据库中全文检索最相关的论文。此外，还利用论文的参考文献部分查找更多文章。共找到11646条结果，应用纳入标准（全文论文、英语、过去10年发表的研究、涉及人类且仅为系统评价）后剩下8篇论文。完成标题和摘要筛选后，我们获得了5篇论文。接下来，完成了全文筛选和AMSTAR质量检查，得到的还是这5篇论文。在检索ScienceDirect后，纳入了5篇符合纳入标准的论文，并从参考文献中选出6篇论文，共11篇论文。本综述讨论了防护口罩导致职业性皮炎的原因。鉴于很大一部分医护人员佩戴防护口罩，我们预计与口罩使用相关的职业性皮炎发病率会上升。为了解口罩相关职业性皮炎的患病率和可用治疗方法，需要进一步开展精心设计的研究。
