Deepening of Background Color: An Imaging Correlate of Inflammation and Vascular Dilation Our findings showed a trend toward a deeper background color—ranging from light red to red and dark red—across different acne severity grades and lesion types (from comedonal to papular and pustular lesions).

highly significantno p-value reported

a clear trendno p-value reported
Vascular Morphology and Distribution: A Clear Trend with Limited Statistical Significance In this study, vascular morphology showed a clear trend of transition from dotted to branched or atypical patterns across lesion types—dotted vessels predominating in comedonal lesions, while branched or atypical vessels were more frequently observed in papular and pustular lesions.
