Methods: skin diseases were investigated and counted by physical examination and skin disease quality of life index (DLQI) questionnaire, and the data were analyzed. Results: the total prevalence rate of dermatosis was 18.67% in the recruits stationed in Shanghai. The top 4 dermatoses were fungal infectious dermatoses, viral dermatoses, acne and neurodermatitis. The top 4 dermatoses affecting the quality of life were acne, urticaria, neurodermatitis and contact dermatitis. The overall average score of DLQI for various skin diseases in the questionnaire was 6.35(0.27, which had moderate impact on the quality of life. The DLQI score of the group with conscious symptoms was higher than that of the group without conscious symptoms (P < 0.05), and the aspect that had the greatest impact on the quality of life was symptom perception (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The skin diseases of the army recruits stationed in Shanghai have a moderate impact on the quality of life of the patients. The DLQI score of the conscious symptom group is higher than the DLQI score of the non-conscious symptom group. The symptom perception has the most serious impact on the quality of life of the patients, suggesting that the newly recruited soldiers should have a purpose to relieve their conscious symptoms, improve their symptom perception and improve their quality of life.展开更多
