Cutaneous lupus erythematosus. Quality of life and related factors in a cohort of 260 patients of A Coruña, Spain

Abstract

Dermatological disease has a significant impact on quality of life (QoL). However, information is scarce for cutaneous lupus erythematosus (CLE) in this regard. Thus, the manifestation of and co-morbidities associated with CLE were assessed in the current study to determine factors predictive of QoL impairment. A descriptive cross-sectional study was performed on predominantly Caucasian patients with CLE, recruited at our institution between April 2013 and August 2016 (α = 0.050; precision ± 6.5%).
