Summary | Psoriasis is a common, inflammatory, chronic skin disease. Its precise aetiology is unknown. Immunological responses via T-cell activation as well as a cascade of inflammatory reactions play a central role in its pathogenesis. We measured an array of inflammatory markers in psoriatic patients at baseline and after twelve weeks of Etanercept treatment. Statistical analysis suggested that there might be an association between disease severity assessments, as this is clinically described by PASI, and inflammatory markers (fibrinogen at baseline and hs-CRP at the end of treatment). | ||
