Abstract:
Hand eczema (HE) is a common condition seen in medical facilities, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. The effects of vitamin D on skin inflammation are diverse. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between vitamin D levels in healthcare workers as determined by serum 25(OH)D and the severity of HE. In Indonesia, between September and October of 2022, a cross-sectional design was employed for this analytical descriptive study. The hand eczema severity index was used to determine the severity of HE. Out of the 44 healthcare workers who had HE, the findings indicated that 29 had mild HE, 11 had moderate HE, and 4 had severe HE. Subjects with mild, moderate, and severe HE had mean serum 25(OH)D levels of 17.85 ng/mL, 16.45 ng/mL, and 17.87 ng/mL, respectively, falling into the vitamin D deficiency category. Serum 25(OH)D levels and the severity of HE did not significantly correlate (r=-0.056; p=0.359). Serum 25(OH)D levels did not significantly differ between subjects with mild, moderate, and severe HE. The degree of HE was not negatively correlated with serum 25(OH)D levels.
摘要:
手部湿疹(HE)是医疗机构中常见的疾病,特别是在COVID-19大流行期间。维生素D对皮肤炎症的影响是多种多样的。这项研究的目的是检查通过血清25(OH)D确定的医护人员维生素D水平与HE严重程度之间的关系。在印度尼西亚,在2022年9月至10月期间,本分析性描述性研究采用了横断面设计.手湿疹严重程度指数用于确定HE的严重程度。在44名患有HE的医护人员中,研究结果表明29人患有轻度HE,11有温和的他,4有严重的他。受试者轻度,中度,严重HE的平均血清25(OH)D水平为17.85ng/mL,16.45ng/mL,和17.87ng/mL,分别,属于维生素D缺乏症类别。血清25(OH)D水平与HE的严重程度没有显着相关(r=-0.056;p=0.359)。血清25(OH)D水平在轻度受试者之间没有显着差异,中度,严厉的他。HE程度与血清25(OH)D水平无负相关。
