Abstract

Background and Design: The aim of the present study was to compare dermatoses detected in overweight and obese individuals with the data obtained from individuals with a body mass index (BMI) below 25.0 kg/m2 and to emphasize the effects of obesity on skin health. Materials and Methods: The study was performed with 510 volunteer participants aged above 18 years, who attended the dermatology outpatient clinic. 150 normal-weight individuals with a BMI below 25.0 kg/m2 constituted the control group, 130 individuals with BMI between 25.0 and 29.9 kg/m2 constituted the overweight group, and 230 individuals with BMI above 30.0 kg/m2 constituted the obese group. A detailed dermatological examination was performed and the data was recorded.Results: A total of 510 participants, 194 males and 316 females, were included in the study. The mean age of the subjects was 32.05±10.9, 44.91±13.4, and 39.78±16.4 in the control, overweight, and obese groups, respectively. The most common dermatosis in the overweight and obese groups was striae distensae in 316 individuals (62%), plantar hyperkeratosis in 249 (48.8%), dystrophic cellulitis in 216 (42.4%), acrochordon in 204 (40%), acanthosis nigricans in 135 (26.4%), varicose veins in 134 (26.3%), and keratosis pilaris in 108 individuals (21.2%). Conclusion: Several dermatoses are more frequently seen in obese and overweight individuals due to insulin resistance and mechanical effects when compared with normal-weight individuals.

Özet

Amaç: Aşırı kilolu ve obezlerde tespit edilen dermatozları, vücut kitle indeksi (VKİ) 25,0 kg/m2'nin altında olan kişilerden elde edilen verilerle karşılaştırarak obezitenin deri sağlığında oluşturduğu etkilere dikkat çekmektir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışma, polikliniğe başvuran 18 yaşından büyük 510 gönüllü katılımcı ile yapıldı. VKİ, 25,0 kg/m2'den küçük olan 150 kişi normal kilolu olan kontrol grubu, VKİ 25,0-29,9 kg/m2 arasındaki 130 kişi aşırı kilolu grubu, VKİ 30,0 kg/m2'den büyük olan 230 kişi ise obez grubu oluşturdu. Olguların ayrıntılı dermatolojik muayeneleri yapılarak veriler kaydedildi.Bulgular: Çalışmaya 194'ü erkek, 316'sı kadın toplam 510 katılımcı dahil edildi. Katılımcıların yaş ortalaması kontrol grubunda 32,05±10,9, aşırı kilolu grubunda 44,91±13,4 ve obez grubunda 39,78±16,4 idi. Çalışmada, aşırı kilolu ve obez grupta en sık görülen dermatozlar sıklık sırasına göre; stria distensa 316 (%62), plantar hiperkeratoz 249 (%48,8), distrofik selülit 216 (%42,4), akrokordon 204 (%40), akantozis nigrikans 135 (%26,4), variköz ven 134 (%26,3) ve keratosis pilaris 108 (%21,2) idi. Sonuç: Birçok dermatoz, insülin direnci ve mekanik etkilere bağlı olarak obez ve aşırı kilolularda normal kilolu kişilerden daha sık gözlenmektedir.
