: Psoriasis is a skin disease characterized by the presence of erythematous, scaly plaques on the extensor surfaces of the body. Treatment varies according to the stage of the disease, with the most severe cases being treated with biologic treatments that differ in efficacy and persistence over time. This study aimed to evaluate the 10-year persistence of biologic drugs (adalimumab, etanercept, infliximab and ustekinumab) in the treatment of moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis.

Article Synopsis
- Biosimilars are biologic drugs that mimic established medications for treating rheumatic diseases and become available as cost-effective alternatives once original patents expire.
- Since their introduction in pediatric rheumatology in 2013, several biosimilars have been launched, offering more treatment options for children with conditions like juvenile idiopathic arthritis.
- The article emphasizes the need for education and effective communication among healthcare providers and patients to enhance understanding and ensure proper use of biosimilars.

Palmoplantar pustular psoriasis (PPPP), or palmoplantar pustulosis (PPP), is a type of psoriasis that affects the skin on the palms and soles. It is characterised by dermatosis and small sterile pustules and is considered a significant burden on patients' quality of life, as there is currently no gold standard treatment or cure. This network meta-analysis (NMA) compares the efficacy and safety of biologic and non-biologic medications for PPPP and PPP.
