Résumé
Hidradenitis suppurativa is a chronic and painful condition with negative impact on daily activity. Little information on the impact of disease-specific factors on educational level and occupational status in hidradenitis suppurativa patients has been reported. We sought to identify how disease-specific factors could influence occupational status and educational level in patients with hidradenitis suppurativa. Cross-sectional study of patients with hidradenitis suppurativa seen between September 2017 and September 2018. Disease-specific variables were analyzed to find associations in patients with different educational levels and occupational status. Ninety-eight patients were included. Patients with non-university studies had more frequently≥3 affected areas (22.5% [16/73] vs 4.8% [1/22], p=0.049), a higher number of painful days (8.5 [SD 8.8] vs 4.6 [SD 4.8], p=0.048) and a higher score on the VAS scale (6.7 [SD 2.8] vs 5.0 [3.3], p=0.031). Patients from the inactive group had a significantly increased number of painful days (11.2 [SD 10.4] vs 5.7 [SD 6.2], p=0.004). This group had a greater number of patients with a history of depression (61.3% [19/31] vs 27.4% [17/62], p=0.002) and a higher mean BMI (32.3 [9.1] vs 28.4 [6.4], p=0.016). Late disease onset was significantly associated with being "inactive" (26.7% [8/31] vs 6.5% [4/62], p=0.026). No significant differences between severity scales of hidradenitis suppurativa and educational level or occupational status were found. cross-sectional and single center study. Pain, ≥3 affected areas, history of depression, higher mean BMI, and late onset of hidradenitis suppurativa, are associated with low education level and inactive occupational status.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES
OBJECTIVE
Hidradenitis suppurativa is a chronic and painful condition with negative impact on daily activity. Little information on the impact of disease-specific factors on educational level and occupational status in hidradenitis suppurativa patients has been reported. We sought to identify how disease-specific factors could influence occupational status and educational level in patients with hidradenitis suppurativa.
METHODS
METHODS
Cross-sectional study of patients with hidradenitis suppurativa seen between September 2017 and September 2018. Disease-specific variables were analyzed to find associations in patients with different educational levels and occupational status.
RESULTS
RESULTS
Ninety-eight patients were included. Patients with non-university studies had more frequently≥3 affected areas (22.5% [16/73] vs 4.8% [1/22], p=0.049), a higher number of painful days (8.5 [SD 8.8] vs 4.6 [SD 4.8], p=0.048) and a higher score on the VAS scale (6.7 [SD 2.8] vs 5.0 [3.3], p=0.031). Patients from the inactive group had a significantly increased number of painful days (11.2 [SD 10.4] vs 5.7 [SD 6.2], p=0.004). This group had a greater number of patients with a history of depression (61.3% [19/31] vs 27.4% [17/62], p=0.002) and a higher mean BMI (32.3 [9.1] vs 28.4 [6.4], p=0.016). Late disease onset was significantly associated with being "inactive" (26.7% [8/31] vs 6.5% [4/62], p=0.026). No significant differences between severity scales of hidradenitis suppurativa and educational level or occupational status were found.

CONCLUSIONS
Pain, ≥3 affected areas, history of depression, higher mean BMI, and late onset of hidradenitis suppurativa, are associated with low education level and inactive occupational status.
