Background::Limited information exists regarding the impact of severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection on psoriasis patients. The objective of this study was to identify clinical factors associated with the prognosis of psoriasis following SARS-CoV-2 infection.Methods::A retrospective, multicenter study was conducted between March and May 2023. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses were employed to identify factors associated with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)-related psoriasis outcomes. The study included 2371 psoriasis patients from 12 clinical centers, with 2049 of them having been infected with SARS-CoV-2.Results::Among the infected groups, lower exacerbation rates were observed in individuals treated with biologics compared to those receiving traditional systemic or nonsystemic treatments (22.3% [236/1058] vs. 39.8% [92/231] vs. 37.5% [140/373], P <0.001). Psoriasis progression with lesions (adjusted odds ratio [OR] = 8.197, 95% confidence interval [95% CI] = 5.685–11.820, compared to no lesions), hypertension (adjusted OR = 1.582, 95% CI = 1.068–2.343), traditional systemic (adjusted OR = 1.887, 95% CI= 1.263–2.818), and nonsystemic treatment (adjusted OR= 1.602, 95% CI= 1.117–2.297) were found to be associated with exacerbation of psoriasis after SARS-CoV-2 infection, but not biologics (adjusted OR = 0.931, 95% CI = 0.680–1.274, compared to no treatment), according to multivariable logistic regression analysis. Conclusions::A reduced risk of psoriasis exacerbation after SARS-CoV-2 infection was observed with biologics compared to traditional systemic and nonsystemic treatments. Significant risk factors for exacerbation after infection were identified as existing psoriatic lesions and hypertension.

ObjectiveTo investigate the prevalence of overweight, obesity and fatty liver disease (FLD) in adult residents in a suburban area of Shanghai, and to explore the relationship between these conditions and eating out of home (EOH). MethodsAdult residents from Zhongshan Street, Songjiang, Shanghai, were invited to report their frequency of EOH and undergo a physical examination using B-ultrasonography from May to September 2017. Binary logistic regression analyses were conducted to examine the relationship between EOH and conditions of overweight, obesity, and FLD. ResultsAmong the final sample size of 6 608 participants, the prevalence rates of overweight, obesity, and FLD were 41.65%, 14.71% and 38.29%, respectively. After adjusting for potential confounders, logistic analyses revealed that participants with an EOH frequency > once/week had a 1.44-fold higher prevalence of obesity (P=0.006), a 1.35-fold higher prevalence of overweight/obesity (P=0.005), and a 1.36-fold higher prevalence of FLD (P=0.008). ConclusionThe prevalence of overweight, obesity, and FLD is relatively high in Songjiang, Shanghai. EOH may be a risk factor for these diseases, and residents are recommended to reduce the frequency of EOH.
