There are limited data in the literature on QoL of young adults with acne and acne scars.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Objectives<\/jats:title><jats:p>To assess the QoL of young adults (age 18 to 25) with acne by using dermatology life quality index (DLQI) and Cardiff acne disability index (CADI), to assess the scores of individual items on DLQI and CADI, and to compare the two scales.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>In this cross\u2010sectional questionnaire study of 1392 subjects with acne, each subject completed two questionnaires: DLQI and CADI. Mean values of DLQI and CADI, and those of individual items on DLQI and CADI were calculated; <jats:italic>t<\/jats:italic>\u2010test was used for testing mean values and Spearman\u2019s rho coefficient for correlation between two questionnaires.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Mean DLQI (4.50) and CADI (3.60) scores were low. However, scores were significantly higher in females and in those with acne scars. \u201cFeelings of embarrassment\u201d and \u201cinterference with social activities\u201d scored significantly higher for females across both questionnaires. There was no correlation between severity (as well as duration) of acne and HRQoL scores. Spearman\u2019s rho coefficient of correlation between DLQI and CADI was 0.71.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Acne impaired the QoL of young adults, acne scars more so. Females felt worse about their appearance with greater embarrassment and impaired social activities. QoL scores seem to depend on patients\u2019 perceptions, which may depend on factors other than objective severity of acne. We found good correlation between the two scales.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/jocd.14540","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,10,21]],"date-time":"2021-10-21T19:09:55Z","timestamp":1634843395000},"page":"4017-4023","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":19,"title":["Quality of life in young adults with acne: Results of a cross\u2010sectional study"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"20","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3444-8252","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Inder Pal","family":"Singh","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology Adesh Medical College Hospital Kurukshetra India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0450-3073","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kavita","family":"Poonia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology Adesh Medical College Hospital Kurukshetra India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kanika","family":"Bajaj","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology Adesh Medical College Hospital Kurukshetra India"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,10,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/bjd.13749"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5070\/D34HP8N68P"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1590\/abd1806-4841.201533726"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jdv.13191"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1155\/2010\/410809"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s40257-019-00438-6"},{"issue":"3","key":"e_1_2_10_8_1","first-page":"436","article-title":"Quality of life and depression among young patients suffering from acne","volume":"31","author":"Haroon MZ","year":"2019","journal-title":"J Ayub Med Coll Abbottabad"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jdv.15419"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archderm.141.5.557"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0190-9622(87)70166-2"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4103\/0378-6323.95450"},{"issue":"1","key":"e_1_2_10_13_1","first-page":"21","article-title":"Adult acne versus adolescent acne: a retrospective study of 1,167 patients","volume":"11","author":"Skroza N","year":"2018","journal-title":"J Clin Aesthet Dermatol"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1365-4362.1997.00099.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1524-4725.2006.32354.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-2230.1994.tb01167.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-2230.1992.tb02521.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_18_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2340\/00015555-2650"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_19_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jdv.14693"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_20_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1468-3083.2005.01344.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_21_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000107624"},{"issue":"1","key":"e_1_2_10_22_1","first-page":"80","article-title":"The Persian version of the cardiff acne disability index.
