We examined the relationship between prevalence and severity of tinea pedis and the length of service and the width of the spaces between the toes in 74 members of the Japanese Self-Defence Forces (SDF) undergoing special training. The subjects were divided according to the width of these spaces into: group I, wide; group II, fairly wide; and group III, closed. The severity of tinea pedis was determined by its duration and the extent of the lesions in the 49 subjects who had tinea pedis. The combined prevalence of tinea pedis and tinea unguium was 66%. There was a tendency for the prevalence to be higher in subjects who had served for 10 years or more in the SDF than in those with fewer than 10 years of service. Classified by the disposition of their toes, 10 subjects fell into group I, 34 into group II, and 30 into group III. The prevalence of 90% (27/30) in group III was significantly higher than in the other groups. A significant positive correlation was seen between length of SDF service and severity. Subjects with both a long service record and closed interdigital spaces showed both a high prevalence and marked severity.
我们对74名接受特殊训练的日本自卫队队员足癣的患病率、严重程度与服役时长及趾间间隙宽度之间的关系进行了研究。根据趾间间隙宽度，将受试者分为：I组，间隙宽；II组，间隙较宽；III组，间隙闭合。根据49名足癣患者的患病时长和皮损范围确定足癣的严重程度。足癣和甲癣的合并患病率为66%。在自卫队服役10年及以上的受试者中，患病率有高于服役不足10年者的趋势。按脚趾形态分类，10名受试者归入I组，34名归入II组，30名归入III组。III组90%（27/30）的患病率显著高于其他组。自卫队服役时长与严重程度之间存在显著正相关。服役记录长且趾间间隙闭合的受试者患病率高且严重程度明显。
