Exploring the influencing factors on acne, melasma, and rosacea: A case-control study in China.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The severity and treatment response of acne, melasma, and rosacea may be influenced by various currently unclear internal and external factors. This study aimed to provide evidence to the influencing factors for the mentioned conditions through a real-world case-control study.

Methods

An online survey consisting of 60 questions was implemented, collecting information on demographics, socioeconomics, genetic factors, lifestyle habits, environmental exposures, and skin care behaviors. Then we constructed univariate and multivariate logistic regressions. Furthermore, we analyzed the dose-response relationship between exposure and outcome.

Results

A total of 399 individuals, including 94 acne patients, 107 melasma patients, and 91 rosacea patients were included
