Teaser

Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory cutaneous disorder with an unclear pathogenesis. It has been associated with multiple comorbidities, including cardiovascular diseases, malignancies, depression, migraines, dementia, Parkinson disease, gastrointestinal disorders, and autoimmune conditions. The extent, clinical significance, and implications of these associations remain a topic of discussion. Further evaluation of these comorbidities may offer valuable insight for future screening practices and treatment recommendations.
