Associations between hidradenitis suppurativa and dermatological conditions in adults: a national cross-sectional study.

Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic, inflammatory condition associated with numerous comorbidities, but there has been no broad-spectrum investigation into the dermatological comorbidities that are associated with HS using nationally representative data. We therefore analysed the 2016-2018 National Inpatient Sample for adult patients with and without HS and used multivariable logistic regression to determine correlations between HS and 25 dermatological conditions, adjusting for age, ethnicity and race, sex and insurance type. As seen previously, HS is more likely to affect women and Black people.
