Abstract

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease that in most cases has no specific etiology. It has been reported in some articles that some relationship may exist between PSORIASIS and HEPATITIS C virus. For this reason, this study was done to determine the prevalence of HEPATITIS C antibody in psoriatic patients in Kerman.In this study, 132 patients with PSORIASIS and 149 BLOOD DONORS or patients without PSORIASIS as controls were tested for HCY-Ab with using ELISA method and if positive, checked with RIBA method as well.4 of 132 psoriatic patients (3%) and 3 of 149 controls (2%) were positive for HCY-Ab, confirmed by RIBA method. There was no significant statistical difference between the two groups (P=0.71). Furthermore, in comparison with BLOOD DONORS population in Kerman with an approximate prevalence of 1% positive HCY-Ab, our data showed no significant statistical difference between psoriatic patients and this group as well (p=0.39). In psoriatic cases, there is no difference between HCY-Ab positive and HCY-Ab negative patients regarding age, sex, clinical patterns of PSORIASIS, HCY related risk factors and the chronicity of the disease(P>0.05).According to this study, we didn't find a significant relationship between PSORIASIS and HCY in our patients in Kerman.
