摘要：

The final diagnoses made in 989 patients consecutively patch tested in 1990 have been reviewed. Among the men, their dermatitis was entirely occupational in 17.9% and partially so in 12.5%. Among the women, it was entirely occupational in 6.4% and partially so in 9.5%. In both groups, irritants exceeded allergens as the cause. whereas allergens superseded irritants in the patients with a non-occupational eczema caused or aggravated by external factors. It seems likely that domestic irritants were overlooked in patients with a non-occupational dermatitis.
