“…Moreover, a significantly higher incidence of the disease is observed among patients’ relatives [ 17 ]. The assessment of the sera of 346 subjects from a kindred of 815 Caucasian Americans spanning six generations has highlighted the implication of genetic factors [ 18 ]. Although psoriasis can affect people of all ages, there is a bimodal age of onset: early-onset occurs before 40 years old and represents 75% of the cases, while the late-onset occurs at a mean age of 56–60 years [ 19 , 20 ].…”

“…It is also conceivable that patients with psoriasis and arthritis have a different disease from patients with psoriasis alone. The question of heterogeneity in psoriasis has been raised in the past (Abele, Dobson, and Graham, 1963). Steinberg, Becker, Fitzpatrick, and Kierland (1951) deduced from their studies that at least two genes would be required to explain the familial distribution of psoriasis.…”
