An Association Analysis of Anxiety and Psoriasis: Based on the NHANES Database

Anxiety and the number of days with anxiety are positively linked with the risk of psoriasis. Individuals with anxiety⁺/smoking⁺ or anxiety⁺/hypertension⁺ have a higher risk of developing psoriasis. We recommended that, in the prevention and management of psoriasis, individuals need to cope with stress to alleviate anxiety symptoms and try not to smoke. Women should pay special attention to regulating anxiety while drinking alcohol and monitoring blood pressure and cardiovascular health regularly.
