Abstract

Background and Aim: Regarding the relatively high prevalence of depression in people with psoriasis, the present study was conducted to determine the role of type D personality and difficulties in emotion regulation in predicting the symptoms of depression in patients with psoriasis.

Methods: This study was a descriptive correlational study. Among patients referred to the Dermatology Clinic of Razi Hospital in Tehran from November to January 2016, 60 patients with psoriasis were selected using available sampling method. The research instruments included type D Personality Questionnaire (DS-14 scale), Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS), and Beck Depression Inventory (Second Edition) (BDI-II). Finally, the data were analyzed using Pearson correlation coefficient and multiple regression tests.

Results: The results of this study showed that there is a significant positive correlation between type D personality and difficulties in emotion regulation with symptoms of depression in patients with psoriasis (P<0/01). Regression analysis with enter method also showed that the two components of type D personality (negative affect and social inhibition), as well as two subscales (lack of emotional awareness and lack of emotional clarity) in difficulties in emotion regulation scale can predict the symptoms of depression in psoriasis.

Conclusion: Type D personality traits and difficulties in emotion regulation can affect the psychological consequences of psoriasis, including depression in people with this disease.

Abstract

Background and Aim: Psoriasis is a common, chronic and inflammatory skin disease. It has been determined that obesity may be associated with this disease. So, the aim of this study was to determine the relationship between obesity and severity of psoriasis in patients referred to dermatology clinic of Razi Hospital.

Methods: This cross-sectional study was done on 106 patients with plaque type psoriasis who had not received any systemic treatment .The demographic characteristics such as gender, age, BMI, severity of disease (PASI), waist, and waist to hip ratio were recorded.

Results: 42% of the patients had BMI of 25-30 (over weight) and 32% higher than 30 (obese). The mean BMI in women (30.2±5.6) was significantly higher than men (27.6±4.7) (P=0.02). BMI was correlated to disease severity (PASI) , but it was not significant (a=0.143, P=0.114)

Conclusion: Although we did not find any significant correlation between severity of disease and BMI, but the association between severity of disease and high BMI were concluded.

Abstract

Nowadays, in modern medicine, there is a great tendency to use non invasive or less invasive diagnostic and therapeutic methods with high precision and effectiveness. This is also true about diagnosis and treatment of non-melanoma skin cancers (NMSCs), that the prototypes are basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) which also considered as the most common human cancers. Therefore, in this review, we present the value and diagnostic features of the dermoscopy (as an emerging and growing non-invasive dermatological evaluation tool) for approaching to NMSC. It is hoped that this study will be an infrastructure for the ever-increasing use of dermoscopy in evaluation of skin cancers, especially NMSCs.

Abstract

Background and Aim: Medical residents play an important role in visiting the patients; also they're the future specialists of their country. Thus, their job satisfaction is of significant importance. In this study, we aimed to assess Iranian dermatology residents' job satisfaction and its related factors.

Methods: We used short Minnesota Satisfaction Questionnaire (MSQ), in which, intrinsic and extrinsic job satisfaction factors are assessed with 20 questions. The data collection method was accidental sampling. Data analysis was performed by SPSS (version 17) program.

Results: Data were collected from 62 residents in years 2016-2017, majority of whom were studing in Tehran universities. Mean intrinsic and extrinsic satisfaction rates were 79% and 60% respectively. General satisfaction was 71.6%. In analytical assessment, attending attitude to residents (P=0.005), how much teaching performed by attendings (P<0.001), senior residents' attitude (P=0.003) and teaching skills by seniors (P<0.001) had a significant positive correlation with job satisfaction.

Conclusion: Generally, job satisfaction among Iranian dermatology residents was found as above average. The lowest satisfaction belonged to payments, job physical conditions, the hospital rules and education that all were extrinsic factors. It seems that change in educational program such as increasing training sessions, develop and implementation of rules halting non dermatologists practitionaires working in dermatology fields can promote dermatology residents' job satisfaction.
