Quality of life in patients with vitiligo using the short form 36

Vitiligo is an acquired pigmentary disorder affecting 0.5-1% of the world's population. Affected individuals often have low self-esteem, and poor quality of life (QOL) due to the disfigurement caused by the disease [1]. Vitiligo's impact on QOL compared to other diseases using general health questionnaires like the Short Form 36 (SF-36) is not well understood. We performed a cross-sectional study of patients with vitiligo and controls using the SF-36 and compared our scores to studies of patients with depression, chronic lung disease, psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, arthritis, cancer, congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and healthy adults.
