Abstract

Objective: This study was conducted to investigate the clinical characteristics of patients with psoriasis vulgaris who were examined and treated at several hospitals in Hanoi. Research Method: This cross-sectional study was conducted at the Central Dermatology Hospital and the Friendship Hospital from January 2023 to June 2024. A total of 210 patients with psoriasis vulgaris were included in the study. Clinical examination and assessment of skin lesion severity were performed using the Psoriasis Area Severity Index (PASI). Study Results: The average duration of illness was 12.6 years (SD=8.8), mainly in patients who had the disease for more than 15 years. 8.6% had at least one comorbid condition such as diabetes or hypertension. The average PASI score was 9.6 (SD=6.1). Most patients were mild (56.2%) and moderate (37.6%). 6.2% were severe. Most patients had plaque psoriasis (88.5%). The main clinical symptoms were skin redness (58.6%), itching (40.5%), and pain (15.7%). Regarding the severity of skin redness, most were at a moderate level (50.7%), 39.2% at a moderate level, and 10.1% at a severe level. The rates of patients with nail, toenail, and joint lesions were 67.9%, 63.6%, and 31.1% respectively. Conclusion: The study shows that most cases of common psoriasis are mild to moderate, with common symptoms such as itching, red skin, and pain. These findings contribute to the formulation of effective treatment and management strategies and highlight the need for further research to improve the quality of life for patients.
