Psoriasis is frequently associated with obesity which possibly contributes to reduced treatment response.
Assessment of the prevalence of obesity in patients with psoriasis in Germany 2013/2014.
The frequency of overweight and obesity was assessed by the body mass index (BMI) and evaluated according to the severity of psoriasis [Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI)].
This national, cross-sectional survey involved 83 dermatological practices and outpatient clinics, including 1,265 patients (mean age 52 years; 43.4% female). The BMI of patients with psoriasis in 2013/2014 was found to be 28.0 and therefore was significantly higher compared to that of patients with psoriasis in 2007 with a BMI of 26.9 as well as compared to the normal population in 2013 with an overall BMI of 25.9.
The prevalence of obesity in patients with psoriasis is higher than in the normal population. The trend towards a higher BMI in patients with psoriasis continues over time.
银屑病常与肥胖相关,肥胖可能导致治疗反应降低。
评估2013/2014年德国银屑病患者的肥胖患病率。
通过体重指数(BMI)评估超重和肥胖的频率,并根据银屑病的严重程度[银屑病面积和严重程度指数(PASI)]进行评估。
这项全国性横断面调查涉及83家皮肤科诊所和门诊,包括1265名患者(平均年龄52岁;43.4%为女性)。2013/2014年银屑病患者的BMI为28.0,因此与2007年BMI为26.9的银屑病患者相比,以及与2013年总体BMI为25.9的正常人群相比,显著更高。
银屑病患者的肥胖患病率高于正常人群。银屑病患者BMI升高的趋势随时间持续存在。
