Facial follicular scales, dandruff, scalp itching and ocular alterations are lesser-known signs of rosacea demodicosis. The aim this prospective original study was to investigate the presence these symptoms in patients with almost-clear, mild moderate papulopustular differences between Demodex-positive Demodex-negative rosacea. Twenty-seven out 60 (45%) presented 24 (40%) involvement 22 (36.67%...

Rosacea is a common chronic facial disorder that affects patients' health-related quality of life; the only questionnaire designed specifically for rosacea is the Rosacea-specific Quality-of-Life instrument (RosQol). However, the questionnaire has not been validated among Chinese patients. This study aimed to validate the Chinese version of the RosQol. First, we translated the questionnaire int...

BACKGROUND Rosacea is a characteristic cutaneous disorder with a diverse clinical manifestations ranging from facial vascular hyper-reactivity to sebaceous gland hyperplasia. Many theories on pathophysiology of rosacea were proposed over the past decade, however the pathogenicity is poorly understood. AIM To review the evidence on different pathophysiological correlations of rosacea. METHOD...

BACKGROUND Rosacea is a common chronic skin and ocular condition. It is unclear which treatments are most effective. We have conducted a Cochrane review of rosacea therapies. This article is a distillation of that work. OBJECTIVE We sought to assess the evidence for the efficacy and safety of rosacea therapies. METHODS Multiple databases were systematically searched. Randomized controlled t...

UNLABELLED Objectives To describe the clinical features of cutaneous and ocular manifestations of childhood rosacea, to propose diagnostic criteria, and to emphasize the possible severity of ocular complications in this age group. DESIGN Retrospective study. SETTING Tertiary referral center. Patients Children aged 1 to 15 years who had received a diagnosis of cutaneous and/or ocular rosacea...

Rosacea fulminans (RF), previously known as pyoderma faciale, is a rare presentation of rosacea mostly seen in young women. RF is seen very rarely in men. We present below a case of a fifty-year-old male who presented with RF and was successfully treated with a combination of corticosteroids and isotretinoin.

Based on present knowledge, it is considered a synd...

INTRODUCTION Numerous intrinsic and extrinsic factors have been associated with the pathophysiology of rosacea, including dysregulation of innate immunity. A high level of cathelicidin antimicrobial peptides (e.g., LL-37) has been shown in the facial skin of patients with rosacea. Excessive production of both LL-37 and KLK5, the serine protease responsible for its cleavage, has been suggested t...
