Pediatric patients with psoriasis and psychiatric disorders: premorbidity and comorbidity in a case-control study

Abstract: A statistically significant increase in psychiatric disorders occurs in disease periods in cases of pediatric psoriasis. Moreover, a high prevalence of psychiatric disorders was detected in the premorbid process. We think that it is important for these to be considered in the management of the disease and in controlling exacerbation, and for the mechanisms involved to be elucidated.

A significant increase in psychiatric disorders occurs in pediatric psoriasis, with a 6.65-fold greater risk of depression and a 9.21-fold greater risk of anxiety, compared with the controls (67).…”

“…Nine studies assessed the presence of social anxiety disorder (26,(29)(30)(31)(32)(33)(34)(35)(36), 6 by interview, 3 with selfadministered questionnaires and 1 with medical records. Meta-analysis showed a high prevalence of social anxiety disorder in patients with psoriasis (15% [95% CI 9-21]) with very wide heterogeneity (I 2 =97.2%) and risk of publication bias (Egger's test, p = 0.016) (Fig.…”

“…Paediatric patients with psoriasis may also have co‐morbidities seen in adult patients such as diabetes mellitus, Crohn’s disease, obesity, ischaemic heart disease, hyperlipidaemia, dyslipidaemia, hypertension and metabolic syndrome 7–10 . Large‐scale epidemiological studies have confirmed the increased risk for psychosocial co‐morbidities like psychiatric disorder, depression and anxiety in children 11–13 . Children suffering from even mild psoriasis have a poorer quality of life (QoL) than that of their peers because of itching, fatigue and feelings of stigmatization, thereby affecting their emotional well‐being and school functioning 14 .…”
