A cross-sectional study in young adults with psoriasis: potential determining factors in quality of life, life course and work productivity

Abstract

In the young adult psoriasis population, substantial QoL impairments were found. Female patients, patients with high BMI, or long disease duration in particular tended to experience more difficulties. These exploratory findings indicate the need for further studies in young adults to detect potential clinical predictors for severe HRQoL impairments.
