We have examined smoking habits in 108 patients with psoriasis, including some with palmoplantar distribution, and compared the results with matched controls from the community. There was a significant association between psoriasis, current smoking status (OR = 2.7, 95% CI 1.44-5.42, P less than 0.01) and smoking habits prior to the onset of disease (OR = 3.75, 95% CI 1.68-9.47, P less than 0.001). There was also a marked dose-response relationship; the relative risk of psoriasis in those currently smoking more than 20 cigarettes/day was significantly elevated (OR = 5.3, 95% CI 2.1-13.0, P less than 0.001). Separate analysis of patients without palmoplantar distribution of psoriasis showed a significant association with smoking prior to onset of psoriasis (OR = 3.6, 95% CI 1.5-9.8, P less than 0.001). Smoking may play a role in the aetiology of this common skin disorder.
我们对108例银屑病患者的吸烟习惯进行了研究,其中包括一些掌跖部受累的患者,并将结果与来自社区的匹配对照进行了比较。银屑病、当前吸烟状况(比值比=2.7,95%可信区间1.44 - 5.42,P<0.01)以及疾病发作前的吸烟习惯(比值比=3.75,95%可信区间1.68 - 9.47,P<0.001)之间存在显著关联。同时还存在明显的剂量反应关系;目前每天吸烟超过20支的患者患银屑病的相对风险显著升高(比值比=5.3,95%可信区间2.1 - 13.0,P<0.001)。对掌跖部未受累的银屑病患者进行单独分析显示,银屑病发作前吸烟与之存在显著关联(比值比=3.6,95%可信区间1.5 - 9.8,P<0.001)。吸烟可能在这种常见皮肤病的病因中起作用。
