dc.description.abstractObjective: This study aims to investigate the effects of gender and comorbidity on the prevalence of dermatological diseases among nursing home residents. Methods: In the current study, we performed dermatological examination on 187 nursing home residents and collected data pertaining to comorbid systemic diseases. Dermatological findings were classified according to gender and comorbid systemic diseases. Results: The most common dermatological finding was xerosis (91.4%), followed by lentigo (80.2%), seborrheic keratosis (72.2%), tinea pedis (53.5%), and senile angioma (40.1%). Xerosis (p=0.016) and intertrigo (p=0.004) were more common in women, whereas senile angioma (p=0.024) was more common in men. In terms of comorbidity, rosacea was more common in patients with diabetes (p=0.023). Conclusion: Knowing the prevalence of dermatological diseases among nursing home residents and recognition of the effect of sex, age, and comorbid diseases on dermatological diseases may help establish appropriate preventive measures.en_US
