Abstract:
Psoriasis is a chronic, inflammatory, and hyperproliferative skin disease associated with the immune
system and genetics. The prevalence of the disease varies depending on the study methodology, type
of measure, study size, age group, case definition, and sampling techniques. Globally, psoriasis affects
approximately 0.91% to 8.5% of adults and 0% to 2.1% of children. Among the risk factors, smoking
and obesity have a more negative impact than alcohol and tobacco use, diet, physical inactivity,
infections, drugs, and mental disorders. Psoriasis can occur at any age, and when it appears before
age 30, it is defined as type I. There is a familial aggregation of the disease; the HLA-Cw6, B57, and
B31 alleles and HLA-Cw2 have been observed in patients with psoriasis type I.
