Background: Psoriasis is a common chronic immune-mediated inflammatory disorder of the skin with several associated comorbidities. Objective: To assess the prevalence of comorbidities in a cohort of psoriasis patients within the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador (NL). Methods: This cros...

Methods: This cross-sectional observational study investigated hospital-coded comorbidities associated with psoriasis in comparison to the general NL hospitalized population.

Patients were hospitalized more frequently for several system disorders than the general population, and a potential association was observed between prognostic factors such as age at onset, disease severity, and HLA-Cw6 genotype and certain comorbid conditions.
