Introduction: About one thirds of the patients referred to skin clinics worldwide have psychological diseases. Eczema is one of the most common skin diseases in this group. Therefore, our aim was to compare the frequency of obsessive-compulsive disorder in women with and without eczema.
Methods: This was a descriptive-cross-sectional study that was conducted as a case-control study, in which 120 people in two groups with and without eczema who referred to the Bagaipour Skin Clinic in Yazd City were examined by the Yale-Brown questionnaire in terms of symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder. The frequency and intensity of obsession in the above two groups were investigated with demographic variables and other possible risk factors. Frequency, mean and standard deviation tests, descriptive statistical tests and ANOVA were used and the confidence level of these tests was considered to be 80%. The analysis was done by SPSS version 16 statistical software.
Results: The average age of the patients with eczema was 27.5±8 and the duration of eczema was 39.8±69 months. In the patients with eczema compared to those without eczema, there was a significant relationship among positive family history of eczema (P=0.25), irritant contact dermatitis (P=0.03), number of bathing times per week (P=0.009), duration of each bathing (P=0.038) has a. The level of obsession in the patients with eczema was significantly higher than those without eczema (P = 0.013).Conclusion: The prevalence of obsessive-compulsive disorder in the patients referred to skin clinics was significantly higher than the general population, and this rate was higher in skin patients referred with eczema.
