Dermatitis, eczematous, and allergic disorders, skin infections, and pigmentary disorders are the commonest groups. Contact dermatitis is the most prevalent disorder, and leishmaniasis is the most prevalent skin infectious disease. Climate, occupational, social, and environmental factors are the main contributors. Such statistics can form an important basis for community\u2010based health policies.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/ijd.12886","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,10,13]],"date-time":"2015-10-13T11:15:55Z","timestamp":1444734955000},"page":"512-517","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Spectrum of winter dermatoses in rural Yemen"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"55","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3124-1339","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mohamed A.","family":"Al\u2010Kamel","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Regional Leishmaniasis Control Center (RLCC) Sanaa Yemen"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2015,9,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_1","first-page":"2012","article-title":"Spectrum of dermatological conditions in a rural community","volume":"6","author":"Muhammad AM","year":"2012","journal-title":"APMC"},{"volume-title":"Disease Control Priorities in Developing Countries","year":"2006","author":"Hay R","key":"e_1_2_7_3_1"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/004947558601600203"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-4362.1988.tb04930.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0035-9203(01)90189-0"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_7_1","first-page":"891","article-title":"Growing awareness of skin disease starts flurry of initiatives.
