Effects of Whole-Body Heating on Skin Blood Flowmotion in Rosacea

30-60 min. Changes in SkBF spectral power in VLF and LF ranges from baseline to heating were determined using fast-Fourrier transform. Both groups increased spectral power within both the VLF and LF ranges. Compared to healthy controls, individuals with rosacea trended toward greater changes in LF SkBF spectral power (1.48 ± 0.68 vs. 0.31 ± 0.34 au, for rosacea and control, respectively; p=0.08). There were no significant differences in the change in VLF SkBF spectral power between groups (p=0.14). These data indicate that individuals with rosacea may have alterations in sympathetic but not vascular endothelial mechanisms of control of facial SkBF during symptom-triggering systemic heat stress.
