Sažetak
The purpose of this study has been to explore some psychological factors which may influence the development and course of psoriasis. This prospective study includes 150 patients with psoriasis that have been polled for stress by a structured non-standardized questionnaire. Our results confirmed the existence of stress in 69% of all cases which is statistically significant in comparison to control group (p<0.05). In conclusion, the involvement of a liaison psychiatrist in a complete health care of psoriatic patients can be of a considerable value for the patients and for a member of their families.
