Popis: | Background Real-world data on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in palmoplantar pustulosis (PPP) are scarce and few studies have analysed the generic HRQoL.Objectives To assess HRQoL using the generic EQ-5D instrument and the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) instrument in PPP compared to plaque psoriasis.Methods Cross-sectional data from PsoReg, the Swedish National Registry for Systemic Treatment of Psoriasis (2006–2021), were examined. The study included 306 patients with PPP, out of which 22% had concomitant plaque psoriasis (n = 68), and 7041 patients with plaque psoriasis only. EQ-5D and DLQI were compared between patients with PPP and patients with plaque psoriasis, overall and stratified by sex. A subgroup analysis compared outcomes for patients with PPP vs. patients with severe plaque psoriasis (Psoriasis Area and Severity Index ≥10). Multiple regression analyses were performed to control for potential confounders (age, sex, comorbidities, lifestyle factors).Results Patients with PPP were to a larger extent female (79% vs. 37%, p |
