Research progress in grading the severity of onychomycosis

Abstract

Abstract:

Onychomycosis is a common fungal infectious disease of nails,the severity of which is related to the type of onychomycosis,suffering area,the thickness of hyperkeratosis,the age of patients,the existence of other diseases and other factors.A severity grading system,which is simple,reliable,easy to understand,is of great significance for prognostic evaluation,treatment selection and clinical and drug test.In this paper,the studies on onychomycosis severity score and grading are reviewed.

Key words: onychomycosis, severity, grading
