摘要
For 15 years, hand dermatitis accounted for a quarter of patients seen in this clinic, The highest proportion occurred in women aged 17-30 pears. Overall, the male to female ratio was 0.8, which contrasts with population-based studies. Catering was most frequently associated with occupational hand dermatitis. Other frequent occupational associations included metalworking, hairdressing, healthcare and mechanical work.
