BACKGROUND: Patterns of @entity272 in developing nations are changing as frequencies of non-communicable diseases continue to increase. Appraisal of the current status of the disease profile is of utmost importance for health planning and resource allocation. METHODS: A prospective analysis of 895 cases of outpatient consultation during the years 2005-2010 was conducted. RESULTS: The mean      standard deviation age of @entity1 was 31.1      19.1  years. Non- @entity24412 accounted for 80.9% of all cases. @entity484 / @entity1909 (27.0%), @entity110 /erythemas (11.0%), @entity364 (9.5%), @entity272 (8.9%), @entity12104 (8.2%), @entity66 (8.2%), @entity1800 (6.8%), and @entity5 and @entity272 (5.4%) represented the most common presentations. @entity483 was the most common type of eczema (29.8%) among @entity1 (odds ratio [OR] 1.53, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.09-2.13; P  =  0.013), in whom @entity74 (OR 3.90, 95% CI 1.73-8.92; P  <  0.001) and @entity1800 (OR 1.80, 95% CI 1.09-3.25; P  =  0.021) were also frequent. Adults were more likely to be diagnosed with @entity203 (OR 3.58, 95% CI 1.09-11.80; P  =  0.003), @entity5 / @entity5 (OR 4.97, 95% CI 1.53-16.10; P  =  0.030), or @entity2597 (OR 8.13, 95% CI 1.09-60.20; P  =  0.015). Female subjects were significantly affected by @entity110 ( @entity17709 , 95% CI 1.00-2.33; P  =  0.030) and @entity12104 (OR 1.80, 95% CI 1.09-3.03; P  =  0.019). CONCLUSIONS: The present pattern shows that @entity24412 are predominant. Occurrences of @entity484 and @entity110 are increasing at similar rates, whereas @entity24412 are decreasing in frequency. Resources and research should be directed towards the prevention of @entity24412 at this time as the campaign for a cleaner environment continues.
