Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the risk factors on androgenetic alopecia (AGA) of primary healthcare staffs.Methods:Primary healthcare staffs were investigated by a questionnaire.Results:A total of 934 healthcare staffs (550 males and 384 females) were surveyed, of which 238 cases were diagnosed as AGA. 68.8% of AGA patients had poor mental health self-assessment; 52.94% of AGA patients had a family history; the prevalence in the people who usually had the night shift was 26.03%, which was higher than that in the people who had no night shift.Conclusions:The prevalence of AGA in healthcare staffs is higher than the national average, which might be related to working pressure, mental status, night shifts, genetic and alcohol drinking.
