Determining the Mean Dermatology Life Quality Index of Skin of Color (SOC) Patients With Vitiligo: A South Asian Perspective

This study concluded that the mean DLQI score was higher in female patients and in vitiligo universalis patients, compared to other variants of vitiligo. The SOC population affected with vitiligo is at a higher risk of having a decreased QOL and hence may need special attention with regard to quality health delivery services.

Abstract

This study concluded that the mean DLQI score was higher in female patients and in vitiligo universalis patients, compared to other variants of vitiligo. The SOC population affected with vitiligo is at a higher risk of having a decreased QOL and hence may need special attention with regard to quality health delivery services.
