Popis: |
Rosacea is one of the most common and misunderstood dermatologic conditions. Currently, rosacea criteria are based on expert opinion; the definition of rosacea is primarily a reflection of opinion that is prone to bias. It has been more than a decade since the initial criteria were created by the National Rosacea Society. Revisiting the criteria and incorporating evidence-based techniques used by rheumatology and psychiatry can improve the validity and reliability of rosacea criteria. Literature from other specialties is reviewed and a method proposed for developing valid criteria. Examples are provided to motivate and highlight the importance of implementing such techniques. |
