Abstract:This study demonstrated tentative support for the validity of the Danish Body Image Quality of Life (BIQLI-DA) and found the measure to be reliable in terms of internal consistency. Further exploration of response processes and construct validity is needed.

The BIQLI-DA may be applicable in healthcare research as it seems to be valid, reliable and responsive; however, evidence should be strengthened through further exploration of instrument performance, particularly regarding responsiveness.

Introduction
It is widely acknowledged that negative body image perception is linked to anxiety, depression, and body dysmorphic disorder. However, there is no gold standard, body image related patient reported outcome measure in use, specific for dermatologic disease, despite evidence to suggest a high prevalence of mental health problems relating to body image in this group of patients.
Aim
The aim of this study was to perform a review of body image Patient Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) used in dermatology and to evaluate their effectiveness.
Methods
Searches were performed in the major databases. Two investigators independently performed full text evaluation by applying an established checklist to evaluate the conceptual model, content validity, reliability, construct validity, scoring and interpretability and respondent burden.
Results
Six different PROMs were identified of which only one was fully validated. There was a significant lack of patient involvement in the development of PROMs in this context.
Conclusions
We therefore encourage further research in this field to improve the quality of evidence to better understand the relationship between mental health and dermatologic disease.
