Abstract

Zinc deficiency may lead to many diseases and symptoms. One of them is Acne vulgaris. Many researchers said that plasma zinc level patients with severe acne is lower than normal. The purpose of this research is to measure the plasma zinc level and the zinc intake daily amount in Acne patients. The aim of this research is to know the role of plasma zinc level in Acne vulgaris. And also the correlation between plasma zinc level and nutrition intake. The subjects are 74 people, consist of 42 sample and 32 control, who came to skin health center in RSHS, Bandung, skin health center in RS Imanuel, Bandung and students of Maranatha Christian University who have Acne in their face and also who have normal skin. All subjects have met the selection criteria. Data is taken by private interview, private questionnaire and laboratory plasma zinc test. Data is analysed by Kruskal-Wallis Chi square, Mann-Whitney test, t-test and Rank Spearman correlation. The result shows there is a tendency that if Zn plasma level is lower so the Acne disease is worse, and adversely if Zn plasma level becomes higher, the disease becomes better. But the Zinc intake does not show significant correlation with plasma zinc level, either in the subject group nor in the control normal group. Conclusion, plasma zinc level has an important role in Acne vulgaris, but has no correlation with nutrition intake.
