Abstract

Amaç: Uyuz, sarkoptes scabies var hominis
adlı bir ektoparazitin neden olduğu kaşıntılı bir deri hastalığıdır. Değişen hayat
tarzlarına bağlı olarak endemiler yapmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, son yıllardaki uyuz
için insidans ve demografik faktörlere dikkat çekmeye çalıştık.

Yöntemler:  Karabük Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi
Dermatoloji polikliniğinde 2013 Ocak -2018 Temmuz arasında, uyuz tanısı alan
hastalar retrospektif olarak incelendi. Hastane kayıtları kullanılarak yapılan
çalışmada, uyuz tanılı hastaların yaş ve cinsiyetleri alındı. Uyuz tanısının
konulduğu mevsim not edildi.

Bulgular: Çalışmamızda, son beş yıl içinde,
hastanemiz dermatoloji polikliniğinde uyuz görülme sıklığının % 0,4 den %1'e
kadar yükseldiğini saptadık (r=0,886,  p=0,001).
Uyuz tanısı alan hastaların yaş ortalamasının, bu 5 yıl içinde 49,7 yıldan 31,4
yıla düştüğü gözlemlendi (r=-0,753,  p=0,006) . Uyuz tanılı kadın hastalar daha
fazlaydı (%56 vs %44) ve uyuzlu kadın hastaların yaş ortalaması, erkek
hastaların yaş ortalamasına göre daha yüksek idi (44 yıl ve 37 yıl) (p=0,001).







Sonuç:  Son
yıllarda, uyuz tanısı konulan olguların arttığı ve uyuz görülme yaşının
azaldığı gözlemlenmiştir.

Abstract

Aim: Scabies is a pruritic skin disease caused
by an ectoparasite named sarcoptes scabies var hominis. It sometimes makes endemics
depending on lifestyles of communities. In this study, we tried to point out incidence
and demographic factors for scabies in recent years.

Methods: A retrospective review was carried out
in patients with scabies diagnosis between 2013 January and 2018 July at dermatology
outpatient clinic of Karabuk Research and Training Hospital. Age and gender of
patients, and season of diagnosis were recorded from hospital database.

Results: In this study, we found that incidence
of scabies increased from 0.4 % to 1% between study period (r=0.886, p=0.001 ).
Mean age of scabies patients decreased from 49.7 years to 31.4 years within 5
years (r=-0.753, p=0.006). There were more female patients than male patients
(56% vs 44%), and their mean age was older than males (44 years vs 37 years) (p=0.001).







Conclusion: Scabies cases are increasing in number and mean age of patients are decreasing gradually at recent years.
