ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is focused on understanding how vitiligo, a skin condition that causes loss of skin color, affects people's lives. Researchers will translate a special questionnaire, called the Vitiligo Specific Quality of Life (VITIQOL), into Arabic to help Arabic-speaking patients share their experiences. They will also assess how vitiligo impacts work productivity and daily activities through another questionnaire. The study aims to find out how the severity and location of vitiligo on the body can influence a patient's quality of life.

To participate in this trial, you need to be an adult aged 18 to 60 who has been diagnosed with vitiligo by a doctor and can speak Arabic. Participants will be asked to complete surveys about their health and daily life. This trial is not yet recruiting, but it will provide valuable insights into how vitiligo affects individuals, which could help improve care and support for patients in the future.
