Abstract

Background: Acne vulgaris (AV) is a chronic inflammation of the pilosebaceous unit of the skin that occurs in 85% of adolescents and can continue into adulthood. The skin of the facial area has an essential role in socializing, therefore, facial AV can contribute to the accumulation of psychosocial stress. The prevalence of individuals with AV seeking treatments is low in some countries. This study aimed to determine the association between psychosocial burdens due to AV and medical treatment-seeking behavior in young adults. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in February 2020 among 100 medical students with AV. The ASEAN Lehmann criteria were used to objectively assessed AV. Psychosocial burden was determined by the Cardiff Acne Disability Index (CADI) questionnaire and then classified into unaffected (score 0), mild (score 1-5), moderate (6-10), and severe (11-15). History-related AV was obtained through a questionnaire. The analysis was performed using the chi-square test.Results: Of the 100 medical students with AV, 82% had suffered from mild to severe psychosocial burdens. The mean score of the CADI was 4.03. However, only 44% of students sought treatment from doctors for their AV. There was a significant association between psychosocial burden and medical treatment-seeking behavior (p = 0.014).Conclusion: The psychosocial burden of acne vulgaris in young adults is high, however, medical treatment-seeking behavior is low. Therefore, psychosocial management is an essential aspect in treating patients with AV.

Abstract

Background: Acne is the most common skin disorder, especially in adolescents and youths. Inflammation due to acne may leave scar tissue. The scar severity may correlate with gender and skin type. Objective: This study aims to investigate the correlation between gender, skin type, and acne scar severity in youth. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study with 132 (81 female) medical college students aged from 18 to 23 participated in the study. Skin type was assessed using a Baumann Skin Type questionnaire. Acne scar severity was evaluated using the Qualitative Global Scarring Grading. Skin examination was conducted through the image from the face photograph. Lambda test was used to confirm the correlation between gender, skin type, and acne scar severity. Multiple logistic regression was applied to determine the odd risk of gender and skin type to moderate-severe acne scar. Significance was set at p<0.05.Results: Most of the participants (80.3%) had oily skin, and 22 participants (16.7%) had moderate-severe acne scar. A weak positive correlation was confirmed between skin type and acne scar severity (p<0.01, r=0.3). Oily skin type has 4.3 times greater risk of developing more severe acne scar (p<0.01, 95%CI = 1.90-9.90).Conclusion: Skin type is correlated with acne scar severity. Oily skin type is at greater risk of developing severe acne scar.

Abstract

Background: Primary hyperhidrosis is a condition of excessive sweating on certain parts of the body with unknown cause. The severity and location of primary hyperhidrosis vary and are thought to affect the quality of life.Purpose: The study aims to determine the association between severity and locations of primary hyperhidrosis and quality of life in medical students.Methods: This study was conducted on 77 medical students at Atma Jaya Catholic University of Indonesia. Hyperhidrosis Disease Severity Scale (HDSS) questionnaire and Hyperhidrosis Quality of Life Index (HidroQoL) questionnaire were used. Data analysis was performed using Chi-Square.Results: The prevalence of primary hyperhidrosis was 15.33%. Mild-moderate hyperhidrosis was found in 77.9% respondents, while severe-very severe hyperhidrosis was found in 22.1% respondents. The location of hyperhidrosis was found in palmar (66.1%), axillary (28.6%), plantar (1.0%), and other locations such as the face, thigh, and back (9.1%). The score of the daily activity domain (29.65 ± 21.96) was higher than the psychosocial score (27.92 ± 20.46). Data showed that 33.3% of respondents with mild-moderate hyperhidrosis and 82.4% of respondents with severe-very severe hyperhidrosis’ quality of life were affected by their excessive sweating (p=0,000). As many as 34.0% of respondents with palmar hyperhidrosis and 54.5% with axillary hyperhidrosis’ quality of life were all affected by their conditions (p=0,106).Conclusion: We found a significant association between the severity of primary hyperhidrosis and the quality of life, and no significant association between the location of primary hyperhidrosis and quality of life among medical students.

Abstract

Globally, there is an increasing prevalence of vitamin D deficiency, including in Southeast Asia, which ranges from 6% to 70%. Vitamin D plays an important role in calcium metabolism and bone health. Melanin is one factor that contributes to vitamin D deficiency. It has photoprotective properties that inhibit vitamin D synthesis, but the mechanism has not been fully understood. To determine the mechanism of the association between melanin and vitamin D, this systematic review was conducted on 11 articles, including cross-sectional studies, cohort studies, and randomised controlled trials published from 2010 to 2020. The search included Pubmed, EBSCO, and Proquest databases, and data were synthesised from 11 studies. This critical review found nine of the 11 studies reported a significant association between melanin and vitamin D, while two reported non-significant results. Of the nine significant studies, eight reported that people with higher melanin have lower vitamin D levels, while one study suggested that melanin levels do not necessarily associate with lower vitamin D levels. In conclusion, the review establishes a significant association between melanin and vitamin D.

Abstract

Introduction: Acne vulgaris (AV) is a skin disorder caused by inflammation in the pilosebaceous unit and may cause a psychosocial burden for patients. Self-medication is common in medical students, including in treating AV. This study aimed to determine the behavioral characteristics of using over-the-counter (OTC) products for acne-prone skin in medical students in Jakarta. Methods: This was a cross-sectional observational study of 100 medical students with AV. The study was conducted using questionnaires consisting of clinical survey, medications, and OTC products. The clinical assessment of the severity of AV was determined using the Global Acne Grading System (GAGS) criteria. Results: Sixty-nine study subjects only used OTC products for their acne management. The most common OTC product was a facial cleanser, which facial cleanser (89 subjects) and cleansing oil (29 subjects). Fifty percent of the study subjects did not know the active ingredients in the products; 15% used benzoyl peroxide, 13% used topical retinoid, and 12% used nicotinamide. Conclusion: Self-medication with OTC products for acne-prone skin is frequent among medical students in Jakarta, and the most commonly used product is a facial cleanser. Most study subjects did not know the active ingredients in their OTC products.

Abstract

In the COVID-19 pandemic, several policies have been implemented such as the use of masks and social distancing. This has an impact on lifestyle changes such as skincare routines. The aim of this study was to obtain a demographic, behavioral, and perception overview of skincare use before and during the pandemic in medical students. This cross-sectional study was conducted by distributing a Google form questionnaire to FKIK Unika Atma Jaya students from the 2016-2021 intake. The inclusion criteria used were as follows: (1) FKIK Atma Jaya students from the 2016-2021 intake; (2) Students who completed the questionnaire until the end. Medical students demonstrated a high level of skincare knowledge but showed uncertainty regarding product composition and safety aspects. Their behavior indicated a strong focus on appearance and trust in brand quality, though opinions were divided on halal certification. Despite a strong demand for skincare products, makeup usage declined. Most respondents were aware of skincare benefits and potential side effects, but uncertainty arose about ingredients and disinfecting. This study explored the perceptions and behaviors of medical students regarding skincare use before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Health promotion is urgently needed to prevent skin disorders due to skincare.
