Abstract

Objective: The aim of the study was to evaluate the association of lipid profile abnormality and eborrheic dermatitis by analyzing the lipid profile; and to evaluate the association of lipid profile abnormality and severity of seborrheic dermatitis.

Methods: This prospective and observational study was conducted in the department of dermatology in Dr. D.Y. Patil University and Hospital, School of Medicine, Navi Mumbai. The diagnosed cases of Seborrheic Dermatitis were subjected to lipid profile examination. The demographic and disease profile was then compared among the patients with normal and abnormal lipid profile.

Results: A total of 30 seborrheic dermatitis patients were analyzed. Eighteen (60%) of the study participants were males. Serum triglyceride, LDL/ HDL ratio, and cholesterol total/HDL ratio were found to be significantly associated with disease severity.

Conclusion: The study suggests a significant role of monitoring serum profile in the patients of seborrheic dermatitis.
