Abnormalities in gene expression profiles characterize patients with inflammatory skin diseases, including psoriasis, and changes may reflect the action of specific therapeutic agents. To examine this, gene expression analysis of psoriatic skin was assessed by Gene Set Variation Analysis using informative gene modules, and longitudinal data were analyzed to assess the impact of various treatments. Ridge penalized logistic regression was employed to derive a transcriptomic score.

Psoriasis is a chronic skin condition with challenges in the accurate assessment of its severity due to subtle differences between severity levels. The aim of this study was to evaluate deep learning models for automated classification of psoriasis severity. A dataset containing 1,546 clinical images was subjected to pre-processing techniques, including cropping and applying noise reduction through median filtering.

Inflammatory diseases are often chronic and recurrent, and current treatments do not typically remove underlying disease drivers. T cells participate in a wide range of inflammatory diseases such as psoriasis, Crohn's disease, oesophagitis and multiple sclerosis, and clonally expanded antigen-specific T cells may contribute to disease chronicity and recurrence, in part by forming persistent pathogenic memory. Chronic rhinosinusitis and asthma are inflammatory airway diseases that often present as comorbidities.

Psoriasis, a chronic inflammatory skin disease, poses a significant burden on patients' quality of life and healthcare systems. While mild-to-moderate cases are treated topically, usually combined with phototherapy, severe cases require systemic treatment with immunosuppressants, retinoids or biologics. However, all available treatments have drawbacks in terms of efficiency and side effects.

Introduction: Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin condition often associated with comorbidities that may impact cognitive function. This study aims to determine if psoriasis is associated with the risk of cognitive impairment and to assess the relationship between cognitive impairment and various disease-related factors, including psoriasis severity, disease duration, and the presence of psoriatic arthropathy, using the Virtual Cognitive Assessment Tool (VCAT).
Materials And Methods: A total of 160 individuals were selected, comprising 80 psoriasis patients and 80 controls, matched for age, gender, ethnicity, marital status, education levels, and prevalence of comorbidities.
