Background
Acne vulgaris is among common bothersome skin problems. Recognition of contributing factors would help to prevent acne. Some dietary and inflammatory factors are among suggested etiologies. Accordingly, in this study, the serum levels of calcium, vitamin D, phosphorous and C-reactive protein (CRP) were determined and compared in acne patients and healthy subjects.
MethodsIn this case-control study, 144 consecutive subjects with and without acne (moderate-very severe) referred to Rasoul Akram Hospital in 2016 were enrolled. In this regard, the serumcalcium, phosphorous, CRP, vitamin D were determined in the subjects and compared between the groups.
ResultsThe results indicated that serum CRP, calcium, and phosphorous level were alike between the groups (P > 0.05) without any relation to acne severity except CRP. The serum vitamin D level was significantly different (P = 0.0001), but it was not associated with acne severity. Serum calcium levels of males were significantly higher in both groups.
ConclusionsBased on our results, it may be concluded that calcium, phosphorous, and CRP levels are not associated with acne incidence, but the serum vitamin D is related to acne presentation. CRP levels were positively associated with acne vulgaris severity.

Background
Acne vulgaris is a dermatologic disorder with a wide variety of distribution and presentation. Its high prevalence and important cosmetic and psychological concerns focusing on contributing factors would be of great value for better approach and prevention of acne vulgaris. There are many articles that argue the role of some dietary and inflammatory factors in acnevulgaris. In this study, the serum levels of zinc in acne patients were determined and compared with healthy subjects.
MethodsIn this age and gender matched case-control study, 200 consecutive subjects with and without acne (moderate-very severe) referring to Rasoul Akram Hospital, 2016, were enrolled,and their serum zinc levels were determined and compared across the groups.
ResultsSerum zinc levels were alike across the groups (P > 0.05), and the severity of acne was not related to zinc level. The levels of zinc were significantly different between genders in the casegroup (men had lower levels). In female patients with acne, the level of zinc was inversely correlated with acne severity.
ConclusionZinc is not related to acne incidence or its grade, but men with acne have lower levels of zinc compared with women. Also, acne severity in women is inversely correlated with zinc level. It can be assumed that zinc supplementation may be a good trend in men with acne or alleviate the severity of acne in women, which needs more evaluation and work up.

Skin as an outer layer of body and a main connection between the body and the environment is a way that pathogens can access the body; Therefore, it has a crucial protecting role for the body because of obstacle functioning and micobiota. Factors that seem to commonly contribute to the disease are follicular hyperkeratinization, propionibacterium acnes, sebum production, and inflammation; however, pathogenesis of acne vulgaris as an inflammatory skin disorder is still poorly understood. Google Scholar and PubMed databases were searched for all related articles, using the key words of zinc, diet, vitamin D, BMI, and acne vulgaris.
