Patients with diffuse systemic sclerosis reported greater body image dissatisfaction on both factors than patients with limited disease. Greater Dissatisfaction with Appearance was associated with younger age and being unmarried for limited patients, and with younger age and increased finger\/hand skin involvement for diffuse patients. Greater Social Discomfort was associated with younger age and being unmarried for both subtypes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The Brief Satisfaction With Appearance Scale scores can be meaningfully compared across limited and diffuse systemic sclerosis. Patients with diffuse disease reported more body image dissatisfaction than those with limited disease. Findings demonstrate that both medical and sociodemographic variables are associated with body image dissatisfaction in systemic sclerosis and can be used to identify which patients may be at increased risk for body image dissatisfaction.<\/jats:p>\n
