“…Previous studies have also found that psoriasis is less prevalent and less active during the summer [32,33]. One of the main mechanisms is that high temperatures increase UV exposure, resulting in increased vitamin D production [46]. Vitamin D plays a crucial role in regulating dendritic and keratin-forming cells and T-cell proliferation [47].…”

Temperature may be an important environmental factor affecting psoriasis. This study aimed to determine the potential association between apparent temperature (AT) and outpatient visits for psoriasis in Hefei, China. Daily psoriasis clinic visits in Hefei were collected from January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2020. A Poisson generalized linear regression model (PGLM) combined with a distributional lagged nonlinear model (DLNM) was used to analyze the impact of AT on psoriasis outpatient visits; the model was adjusted for relative humidity, wind speed, precipitation, PM2.5, NO2, SO2, time trends, Sundays, and holidays. The analyses were stratified by age and sex. A total of 24,351 patients with psoriasis were included in this study. Only a low AT showed a delayed and strong risk effect. Referring to the median AT (16.8°C), the effect of low AT started at lag 2 days and showed an increasing and then decreasing trend for approximately 5 days; the effect of extreme cold (1st percentile) and cold (5th percentile) peaked at lag 4 days with a relative risk (RR) of 1.117 (95% CI:1.065 to 1.171) and 1.081 (95% CI:1.044 to 1.119), respectively. The effect of mild cold (25th percentile) reached a maximum RR of 1.033 (95% CI:1.017 to 1.048) at lag 6 days. Subgroup analysis showed that low AT risk was more pronounced and longer-lasting in men and individuals aged < 45 years. Our study provides evidence that a low AT increases the risk of psoriasis. Men and young people are vulnerable to potential adverse effects. There is a need for enhanced health interventions, medical care, and early warnings for patients.

“…Environmental factors may also have an impact on symptoms, including pain and the occurrence of complications such as photosensitivity, deficiencies, the cancer risk and infections. [6][7][8][9][10][11][12] Individual disease burden has already been evaluated in several skin diseases using patient questionnaires such as topic dermatitis, vitiligo hand eczema, haemangioma, inherited ichthyosis, sensitive skin and very recently psoriasis. [13][14][15][16][17] Even though it has become the main focus in the management of dermatological diseases, no methodology allowing the design of patient-oriented burden questionnaires in dermatology has been proposed so far.…”

Introduction In recent years, the concept of “disease burden” has been given a central role in evaluating patient care, particularly in skin diseases. Measuring patient-reported outcomes (PRO) such as symptoms and disease burden may be useful. Aim To present a methodology that facilitates the development and validation of burden questionnaires for patients suffering from skin diseases. Methodology Based on past published burden questionnaires, a methodology for designing skin disease burden questionnaires was to be developed. Results Based on 16 burden questionnaires developed and published over the last 10 years, the authors propose a standardized methodology for the easy design and validation of disease burden questionnaires for patients with chronic skin diseases. The authors provide detailed guidance for the conception, development and validation of the questionnaires, including reliability, internal consistency, external validity, cognitive debriefing, testing–retesting, translation and cross-cultural adaptation, as well as for statistical analysis. Conclusion The proposed methodology enhances the design and validation of disease burden questionnaires in dermatology. Burden questionnaires may be used in clinical research as well as in daily clinical practice.

Impact of solar ultraviolet radiation on atopic dermatitis symptoms in young children: A longitudinal study

Abstract: Atopic dermatitis symptoms in children are likely to be affected by exposure to solar UVR with a cumulative effect, and this effect is different according to season.
