Environmental triggers of psoriasis: insights from a UK patient-reported cohort (mySkin)

Résumé fourni par la source

We developed mySkin, an online platform that captures self-reported information from people with psoriasis across the UK, to improve our knowledge on the environmental determinants of psoriasis. In this cross-sectional analysis of the first 529 participants, stress was the most commonly reported trigger for both the onset and worsening of disease. Within individuals, triggers for psoriasis onset also often triggered disease worsening. We did not observe a clear association between different triggers to psoriasis onset and subsequent disease severity. These findings highlight the value of patient self-reported data to deliver valuable insights into the role of environmental triggers and may inform early intervention strategies to mitigate against triggers of disease progression.
