Abstract
- • The purpose of this study is to identify the associated factors of two types of LVD and to compare the differences in related factors between the different pathological types of lichenoid vulvar disease. • The study conducted at the West China second Hospital of Sichuan University included a total of 1770 patients with biopsy-confirmed VLSC and VLS, along with 1209 patients with normal vulvovagina as control. • The incidence about lichenoid vulvar disease is influenced by various factors such as dietary habits, living environment, mental stress, concomitant diseases, hormone levels and so on. The purpose of this study is to identify the associated factors of two types of lichenoid vulvar disease (LVD) and to compare the differences in related factors between the different pathological types of lichenoid vulvar disease (LVD). The study conducted at the West China second Hospital of Sichuan University included a total of 1770 patients with biopsy-confirmed vulvar lichen simplex chronicus (VLSC)and vulvar lichen sclerosus(VLS), along with 1209 patients with normal vulvovagina as control. Further pathological subtype analysis was carried out on 163 cases of vulvar lichen simplex chronicus and 51 cases of vulvar lichen sclerosus. In addition, Univariate chi-square test and multivariate logistic regression were used to analyze the lichenoid vulvar disease group and vulvovaginal normal control group. Univariate analysis revealed that there were statistically significant differences (P < 0.05) in factors between the LVD group and the control group, except for living type, sleep habit, history of drinking, and allergic diseases. There was no significant difference in late sleep, spicy diet, and coffee intake in the factors of life and eating habits and the concomitant disease factors. Furthermore, univariate analysis showed that except for eating seafood, humid living environment, residence, caffeinated drinks, hypertension, and vaginitis, there were statistical differences in the related factors of LVSC. The incidence about lichenoid vulvar disease is influenced by various factors such as dietary habits, living environment, mental stress, concomitant diseases, hormone levels and so on, and there were no significant differences in these factors between VLS and VLSC except for income, work stress, systemic immune diseases, and menopause.
