“…Patients with HIV or AIDS HIV and AIDS have an impact on skin diseases by altering the immune response and autoimmune reactivity. 9 Indeed, there is a higher prevalence of psoriasis in HIV-infected patients compared with the general population. 10,11 Although HIV and AIDS are serious healthcare concerns, there are very limited evidence-based data that support treatment options for psoriasis patients who have HIV or AIDS.…”

“…CPRD data have been subjected to a number of validity assessments and been found to be representative of the UK population (17,18). As with all studies reporting consultation rates of a condition using routinely collected data, this is subject to coding problems and under-ascertainment (19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25). The analysis does not determine causal relationships but describes associations within the data and although observational studies do not categorically identify 'cause and effect' they are important.…”

[19][20][21][22][23][24][25] The analysis does not determine causal relationships but describes associations within the data, and although observational studies do not categorically identify 'cause and effect' they are important. By identifying associations between MC, age, and AE, this can provide evidence of the aetiology of disease and can lead to more research to explore this further.…”
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
