Understanding the cutaneous manifestations associated with diabetes can help in choosing the appropriate treatment approach in these patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency of cutaneous manifestations in diabetic patients referred to the endocrinology clinic of Babol University of Medical Sciences. METHODS: The present cross-sectional study was performed on 300 patients with diabetes referred to Rouhani Hospital in Babol in 2019. Age, gender, BMI, type and duration of diabetes, and patients’ diabetes control status (HbA1C) were recorded and patients were thoroughly examined by a dermatologist and divided into two groups of below and above 50 years. In terms of cutaneous manifestations, they were divided into two groups; with cutaneous manifestations and without cutaneous manifestations. FINDINGS: 293 patients (97.76%) had type 2 diabetes. The mean age of patients was 55±12 years and the mean duration of diabetes was 9.73±1.20 years. In this study, 130 patients (43%) had cutaneous lesions, of which 76 patients (58.5%) were female. Pruritus, acrochordon, cherry angioma, diabetic dermatopathy, fungal skin infections with frequencies of 25.7%, 21%, 14.3%, 6% and 5.7% were the most common skin disorders, respectively. 68 patients (69.4%) had skin manifestations and had diabetes for more than 10 years. There was a significant difference between the two groups of with and without cutaneous manifestations, gender and duration of diabetes (p<0.001). There was no significant difference between the mean age, BMI and HbA1C in the two groups (p=0.07, p=0.09 and p=0.11, respectively). CONCLUSION: The results of the study showed that pruritus and acrochordon are the most common cutaneous manifestations and long-term diabetes and female gender are the most important risk factors for cutaneous manifestations.A Shirzadian KebriaM HasemiN MeftahM HajiahmadiBabol University of Medical Sciencesarticlediabetes mellitusglandular diseasecutaneous manifestations.MedicineRMedicine (General)R5-920ENFAMajallah-i Dānishgāh-i ̒Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Bābul, Vol 23, Iss 1, Pp 380-385 (2021)
