银屑病对生活质量的影响已经在选定的患者人群中进行了研究。一直缺乏详细描述美国人群疾病程度分布、日常生活中相关问题和治疗满意度的基于人群的数据。我们基于人群的调查表明，大约有450万成年人被诊断为银屑病。大多数人（59%）很少或没有参与，但65万成年人至少有三个手掌的身体表面参与，超过100万人表示对他们的治疗非常不满。只有5%的患者（56，000）报告对当前治疗严重不满，患有广泛疾病（10掌）。在采访时，许多患有轻微银屑病的人认为这种疾病是日常生活中的一个大问题。
The impact of psoriasis on quality of life has been studied in select patient populations. Population-based data detailing the distribution of extent of disease, associated problems in everyday life, and treatment satisfaction for the US population have been lacking. Our population-based survey indicates that approximately 4.5 million adults have been diagnosed as having psoriasis. Most (59%) have little or no involvement, but 650,000 adults have at least three palms of body surface involved and more than 1,000,000 indicate substantial dissatisfaction with their treatment. Only 5% of patients (56,000) who report severe dissatisfaction with current therapy have extensive disease (10 palms). Many individuals with little psoriasis at the time of interview considered the disease to be a large problem in everyday life.
