dc.description.abstract | Background: This study aimed to determine the socioeconomic and clinical characteristics affecting health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients with psoriasis. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted between March and June 2015 using data obtained via an Internet-based survey completed by a psoriasis patient group in Korea. The survey included items regarding demographic, socioeconomic, and clinical characteristics and HRQoL. Patients' HRQoL impairment was classified as severe if their Dermatology Life Quality Index Scores were >= 11. Factors influencing HRQoL impairment were identified using multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results: Of the 299 respondents, 161 (53.8%) exhibited severe HRQoL impairment The Dermatology Life Quality Index scores were significantly associated with gender, annual income, neck psoriasis, psoriasis-related resignation from work, and use of oral and herbal medications. The severity of HRQoL impairment in women was twice that observed in men (odds ratio [OR] = 2.00, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.05-3.80). Patients with psoriasis on the neck exhibited significantly greater HRQoL impairment than those with psoriasis on other areas of their bodies (OR = 230, 95% CI: 1.20-4.43). With respect to the socioeconomic status, patients who earned > 40 million KRW (approximately 34,000 USD; high-income group) showed less HRQoL impairment compared with those who had lower incomes (OR = 0.47, 95% CI: 028-0.80). Patients with severe HRQoL impairment used oral (OR = 2.04, 95% CI: 1.20-3.44) and herbal (OR = 1.86, 95% CI: 1.04-3.34) medications more often relative to patients with less severe HRQoL impairment. Conclusions: HRQoL in patients with psoriasis was significantly associated with their demographic and socioeconomic characteristics and employment status. The presence of psoriasis on exposed areas of the body was significantly associated with patients' HRQoL and employment status. Further research is required to evaluate the impact of psoriasis on patients' productivity. | - |
