Methods: The study employed a cross-sectional design. Acne patients were recruited through quota sampling across Faculties of a University, 120 subjects met the inclusion requirements and gave individual consent; however, only 105 completed the study. A 25 cm2 quadrant, Global Acne Grading Scale (GAGS), Kaiser Physical Activity Survey (KPAS) and BMI apparatus were used to measure: acne lesion count and density, facial distribution and severity, PAI, and BMI, respectively. Multiple regression, and Spearman’s correlation were used for inferential statistical analysis. Results: Subjects’ characteristics were: age (22 ± 4 years), BMI (25.3 ± 3.5), PAI (2.5 ± 0.4) and 5 ± 1.7 acne eruptions per 25 cm2 of face. Multiple regression showed that age, BMI and PAI significantly predicted acne severity, F (3,101) = 4.272, p = 0.012, R2 = 0.293. Conversely, only age (ρ = -0.513, p = 0.002, CI = 99%) had a significant (inverse) relationship with acne severity; there is no significant relationship between acne and BMI (ρ = 0.034, p = 0.846, C.I = 95%) or PAI (ρ = -0.313, p = 0.067, CI = 95%). Conclusion: Age of subjects had a significant correlation with acne severity. However, BMI and PAI had no significant relationship with acne.","PeriodicalId":49366,"journal":{"name":"West Indian Medical Journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2018-01-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49335651","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: Total 117 SLE patients were collected, and clinical symptoms and biochemical indexes of blood, renal function, liver function and immunology were determined. Then, adaptive lasso analysis was used to analyse the potential relationship between the clinical symptoms of SLE and biochemical indexes. Results: The present results indicated that pleurisy is closely related to the red blood cells (RBC), haemoglobin (Hb) and urea nitrogen (BUN) with the |βj | values of 0.0045, 0.0168 and 0.0064, respectively; oedema is closely related to the albuminuria and cylindruria with |βj | values of 0.0198 and 0.1170; alopecia has closely correlations with liver damage and aspartate aminotransferase (AST), (|βj | values were 0.0033 and 0.0104); fever is correlated to liver damage (|βj | values were 0.0011); raynaud phenomenon is closely correlated to the triglycerides (TG) and Anti-U1 Ribonucleoprotein (u1RNP) with |βj | value of 0.0012 and 0.0012; facial redness and arthralgia have close correlations with SSA (|βj | value were 0.3580 and 0.0047; arthritis and pericarditis are closely related to antinucleosome antivodies (AnuA) with |βj | values of 0.0038 and 0.0026. Conclusion: The present study indicated that some biochemical, including RBC, Hb, BUN, albuminuria and cylindruria, liver damage, AST, TG, SSA, AnuA and u1RNP, are closely to the prognosis of SLE and it’s important to control these biochemical indexes during the treatment period.","PeriodicalId":49366,"journal":{"name":"West Indian Medical Journal","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2017-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48125726","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
