Summary

Rosacea affects 10% of office employees, predominantly women. Flushing and vascular regulation are key in rosacea development, with some patients experiencing migraine.

Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Epidemiology

Background:

  • Rosacea is a common skin condition with unclear etiology.
  • Understanding its prevalence and associated factors is crucial for public health.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine the prevalence of rosacea in an office employee population.
  • To investigate potential risk factors and comorbidities associated with rosacea.

Main Methods:

  • A cross-sectional study was conducted on 809 office employees.
  • Participants were assessed for rosacea diagnosis and compared with a control group.
  • Data on clinical presentation, triggers, and comorbidities were collected.

Main Results:

  • The overall prevalence of rosacea was 10% (14% in women, 5% in men).
  • Erythematotelangiectatic rosacea was most common (81%).
  • Rosacea patients showed significantly higher rates of migraine (27% vs 13%) and flushing (42% vs 16%) compared to controls.

Conclusions:

  • Rosacea is prevalent in this population, with a higher incidence in women.
  • Vascular dysregulation and flushing appear significant in rosacea pathogenesis.
  • Migraine comorbidity warrants further investigation in rosacea patients.
