          Abstract

          RESUMEN Introducción: Algunos profesionales tienen dificultades para hacer la detección correcta de los signos y síntomas y para prescribir el tratamiento adecuado del acné II, que puede conducir a un tratamiento estético insatisfactorio. Por lo tanto, es necesario desarrollar tecnología educativa, por ejemplo, una aplicación. Objetivo: Desarrollar una aplicación multimedia en una plataforma móvil para el diagnóstico, prevención y tratamiento estético del acné grado II. Métodos: Las fases de desarrollo de la estructura de la aplicación fueron: Fase 1 - "Concepción: identificación de las necesidades del desarrollo de la aplicación". Fase 2 - "Elaboración del prototipo de aplicación": esta fase incluyó la revisión integradora de la literatura en las principales bases de datos. Fase 3- "Creación de la aplicación": esta fase consistió en desarrollar el algoritmo, estructurar la base de datos y desarrollar el software; Fase 4- “Transición”: se realizaron las pruebas de funcionalidad de la aplicación. Resultados: La aplicación móvil consta de 10 pantallas descriptivas y 4 pantallas con videos explicativos, el cual se registró en el Instituto Nacional de Propiedad Industrial (Ministerio de Desarrollo, Industria y Comercio Exterior) con el número de protocolo: BR: 51 2018 0001475 y está disponible de forma gratuita en línea en Google Play Store con el nombre de Face Care. Conclusión: El estudio permitió describir las etapas de planificación y desarrollo de una aplicación multimedia en una plataforma móvil para el diagnóstico, prevención y tratamiento estético del acné grado II.

          ABSTRACT Introduction: Some professionals have difficulties in correctly detecting signs and symptoms of acne II, as well as in prescribing the appropriate treatment for the condition, a fact that can lead to unsatisfactory cosmetic treatment. Therefore, it is necessary to develop educational technology; for example, an application. Objective: To develop a multimedia application on a mobile platform for diagnosis, prevention and cosmetic treatment of grade II acne. Methods: The application structure was developed in four phases: conception (identification of the application development needs), development of the application prototype (which included the integrative review of the literature from the main databases), creation of the application (which consisted in developing the algorithm, structuring the database and developing the software), and transition (during which the application’s functionality tests were carried out). Results: The mobile application consists of ten descriptive screens and four screens with explanatory videos. It was registered within the National Institute of Industrial Property (Ministry of Development, Industry and Foreign Trade), with the protocol number BR: 51 2018 0001475. It is available online, for free, on the Google Play Store, under the name Face Care. Conclusion: This study allowed to describe the planning and development stages of a multimedia application on a mobile platform for the diagnosis, prevention and cosmetic treatment of grade II acne.

          The impact of acne vulgaris on quality of life and psychic health in young adolescents in Greece. Results of a population survey*

          BACKGROUND Acne vulgaris can severely affect social and psychological functioning. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of acne vulgaris and its severity on Quality of Life of young adolescents in Greece. METHODS We conducted a questionnaire based survey among 1560 adolescent between the ages of 11 and 19 years old and 1531 of these were completed. Adolescents with acne filled all the questions including the Children Dermatology Life Quality Index. Adolescents without acne filled the questions about age, family history of acne, stress and smoking. Data were analyzed with Pearson Chi Square test. RESULTS Acne prevalence was 51.2% affecting both sexes equally. Self reported mild acne was present in 71.2% and moderate-severe acne in 28.8% of the study population. The mean age of the study population was 15.77y. The median score of Children Dermatology Life Quality Index was 4.02. The impact of acne on quality of life is associated with the severity of the acne (p<0.0001). Patients with moderate/severe acne experience greater psychosocial and emotional impairment (p<0.0001). Body image is modified proportionally to the severity of acne (p<0.0001). Symptoms and treatment of acne are factors that also influence their quality of life. Girls and boys are equally affected. Stress and heredity are correlated with acne and its severity (p<0.0001). We didn't find any correlation between smoking and acne. CONCLUSION Acne affects Quality of Life of young adolescents in Greece. The impact is proportional to the severity of acne. More severe acne is associated with greater effect on quality of life with implications for self esteem, body image and relationships with others.
