Abstract

Background. Skin diseases in HIV-infected patients are considered the most common pathology, while in patients without HIV infection, inflammatory dermatoses (IDs) contribute to a significant decrease in the quality of life, the indicators of which can serve as a recommendation for starting treatment. Objective. Assessment of the quality of life indicators of the “physical and mental health” in HIV-positive and HIV-negative patients with IDs. Methods. The 285 patients with IDs were followed-up, among them 150 (52.6%) were HIV-positive (89 (59.3%) patients received antiretroviral therapy [ART], 61 [40.7%] patients were without ART), and the comparison group included 135 (47.4%) patients. There were 83 (55.3%) men in the HIV-infected group, 76 (56.3%) - in the comparison group; there were 67 (44.7%) women among HIV-infected patients, in the comparison group - 59 (43.7%) women. The mean age in the both groups was 27.9 years (minimum - 23 years, maximum - 43). The mean duration of a confirmed diagnosis of inflammatory dermatosis (psoriasis, atopic dermatitis) was 8.2 years (minimum - 1.7 years, maximum - 14 years); in the group of HIV-infected patients, the diagnosis of ID was recorded no later than 7 months before HIV detection; patients in both groups received comparable topical and systemic therapy for dermatoses. The mean duration of HIV infection in patients was 3.8 years (minimum - 1.2 years, maximum - 7 years), the duration of ART averaged 1.8 years (minimum - 1.1 years, maximum - 4.2). Results. In HIV-infected patients with ID, there was a significant decrease in the median PH («physical health») and MH («mental health») of the quality of life compared to HIV-negative patients with ID; a more pronounced decrease in indicators was observed in patients who did not receive treatment for HIV infection. Conclusion. The presence of ID in HIV-positive patients can serve as indication for the urgent administreation of ART.
