Abstract

Background: Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a skin disease which cause stress to the patients. The chronic process of AD can cause physical, social, and psychological impairments. The severity of AD can also be affected by allergen exposures, which in turn will affect the quality of life of the patient. Skin prick test (SPT) can be used to evaluate allergen sensitization. Purpose: To evaluate correlation between SPT positivity to severity and quality of life of AD patients. Methods: The study was an observational cross-sectional study. Twenty five AD patients were recruited based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Questionnaire was used to measure the quality of life of patients, and Scoring of Atopic Dermatitis (SCORAD) to measure the disease severity. Most of participants were women (80%), with median of age 26.84±13.71. Results: Positive SPT was obtained in 68% of patients, most of them were caused by house dust mites (55.2%). Seventy six percent of patients experienced mild AD, 12% moderate AD, and also 12% patients experienced severe AD. Significant correlation was observed between the severity and quality of life (p=0.001;r=0.617), while the SPT positivity has no correlation with the severity (p=0.912;r=-0.023) and quality of life (p=0.959;r=0.011). Conclusion: This study revealed that the severity of the disease has a correlation with quality of life, but SPT positivity has no significant correlation with severity and quality of life.

Abstract

Background: Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic skin disease that often occurs in infancy and children. Skin barrier defect in atopic dermatitis causes the skin susceptible to bacterial, fungal, and viral  infection. Antifungal therapy can improve atopic dermatitis by reducing the number of Malassezia colonization on the skin. Purpose: To compare Malassezia colonization of children with AD and non-AD children in Dermato-venereology Outpatient Clinic in Dr. Soetomo general hospital Surabaya. Methods: This was an analitic observational study, 25 atopic dermatitis and 25 non-atopic children (controls) that qualify inclusion and exclusion criteria were eligibled. Skin specimens were obtained by skin scraping and then planted in the culture medium ChromAgar Malassezia. Results: Positive culture of Malassezia in AD group was fewer than the control group, while the average number colony of Malassezia sp.in atopic dermatitis was higher than the control group; but statistic analysis showed the difference was not significant (p>0.05), except in seborrheic area. Conclusions: The average number colony of Malassezia sp. was higher in AD patient than control group in this study. Statistic analysis showed the difference was not significant, except in seborrheic area. This results differ with previous study can be possible due to the difference of using culture medium and methods of skin specimen collection, as well as the influence of tropical climate that occurred in Indonesia.
