There have been few studies addressing the question of factors that determine early attendance of patients at a clinic. We questioned 256 patients with acute <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">HZ<\/jats:styled-content> about: (i) date from onset of the eruption to first clinic visit; and (ii) their prior knowledge of <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">HZ<\/jats:styled-content>. We found a tendency that patients who already knew about <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">HZ<\/jats:styled-content> had consulted dermatology clinics earlier (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.05). People most commonly obtained information about the disease from friends and family members who had previously had <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">HZ<\/jats:styled-content>, but not from the Internet or other mass media. Our results indicate that patient education is important for early attendance at dermatology clinics, which in turn, should result in the improved outcome of antiviral chemotherapy and prevention of postherpetic neuralgia.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/1346-8138.13334","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,3,14]],"date-time":"2016-03-14T06:34:21Z","timestamp":1457937261000},"page":"1184-1187","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Relationship between prior knowledge about herpes zoster and the period from onset of the eruption to consultation in patients with herpes zoster"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"43","author":[{"given":"Motoko","family":"Miyachi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology Fukuoka University Faculty of Medicine Fukuoka Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Shinichi","family":"Imafuku","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology Fukuoka University Faculty of Medicine Fukuoka Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2016,10,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1365-4362.1998.00472.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jdv.12379"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archfami.9.9.863"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7326\/0003-4819-123-2-199507150-00002"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archinte.1997.00440290095010"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_7_1","first-page":"27","article-title":"Efficacy of famciclovir in the treatment of herpes zoster","volume":"15","author":"Tyring SK","year":"1996","journal-title":"Semin Dermatol"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/clinids\/22.2.341"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1386-6532(03)00005-2"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/AJP.0b013e318065b6c9"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_11_1","first-page":"A4345","article-title":"Perceptions of herpes zoster and attitudes towards zoster vaccination among 50\u201065\u2010year\u2010old Danes","volume":"58","author":"Mortensen GL","year":"2011","journal-title":"Dan Med Bull"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/21645515.2015.1008885"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/10428199309067939"}],"container-title":["The Journal of Dermatology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/api.wiley.com\/onlinelibrary\/tdm\/v1\/articles\/10.1111%2F1346-8138.13334","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/1346-8138.13334","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,9,24]],"date-time":"2023-09-24T15:57:07Z","timestamp":1695571027000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/1346-8138.13334"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2016,10]]},"references-count":12,"journal-issue":{"issue":"10","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2016,10]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1111\/1346-8138.13334"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1111\/1346-8138.13334","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0385-2407","1346-8138"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0385-2407","type":"print"},{"value":"1346-8138","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2016,10]]}}}
