Moderate-to-severe Psoriasis
Conditions
Brief summary
Psoriasis is a common chronic and systemic immune-mediated disease, induced by a combination of genetic and environmental effects. The increasingly worrying question is the negative impact on patients' sleep, which has become an important comorbidity of psoriasis. To investigate the causal relationship between psoriasis and sleep status, a prospective cohort study will be conducted by separating moderate-to-severe psoriasis patients and healthy individuals into distinct cohorts in order to observe their sleep status.
Detailed description
Target follow-up duration for the study is 24 weeks, during which participants will undergo a sleep monitoring session every 8 weeks. The sleep monitoring data collected includes time to fall asleep, time to bed, sleep perception, and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). The Dermatology Quality of Life Index (DLQI), the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI), and the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) will simultaneously be used to assess the severity of the disease in the cohort of patients with psoriasis.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) | week0、week8、week16、week24 | PSQI is a 19-item self-rated questionnaire for evaluating subjective sleep quality over the previous month. A score above 5 suggests poor sleep quality. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) | week0、week8、week16、week24 | The PASI score ranges from 0 to 72, and the higher the score, the more serious the patient's condition. Generally speaking, a PASI score of less than 10 indicates mild psoriasis, 10-20 indicates moderate psoriasis, and more than 20 indicates severe psoriasis. |
| Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) | week0、week8、week16、week24 | DLQI was a participant-reported questionnaire used to measure the health-related quality of life (QOL) of adults suffering from a skin disease. Scores ranged from 0-30, a higher score indicating a greater impact on a participant's QOL. |
| Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) | week0、week8、week16、week24 | The scoring criteria for pruritus level are as follows: absence of pruritus = 0; mild (intermittent itching, no scratching, no interference with daily activities) = 1-3 points; moderate (frequent itching, occasional scratching, impacting daily routine and sleep) = 4-6 points, and severe (intense itching, persistent scratching, significantly affecting daily life and sleep) = 7-10 points. |
| Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale(HADS） | week0、week8、week16、week24 | For describing depression and anxiety in hospital patients |
