A Cross-Sectional Study of Cutaneous Manifestations in 300 Patients with Diabetes Mellitus

This study found that the most common skin manifestation among diabetes patients was cutaneous infections.

This study, conducted among elderly patients in an Indian dermatology department, found that pruritus was the most common complaint, while fungal infections and eczematous disorders were also prevalent; notably, age-related changes like wrinkling and hair graying affected all participants.

This study concluded that mucocutaneous symptoms can assist in diagnosing diabetes mellitus and its complications, highlighting the potential for dermatologists to detect related systemic issues early in patients.

In this study, researchers investigated the prevalence and types of skin diseases among elders at a medical facility in India, finding that generalised pruritus, seborrheic keratosis, and fungal infections were common, while education on proper skin care may help reduce these conditions.

This study observed that pruritus and xerosis were the most common skin complaints among the geriatric population attending a dermatology clinic in Puducherry.
