Psoriasis epidemiology screening tool (PEST) is useful for the detection of psoriatic arthritis in the Japanese population

Abstract Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease that involves various systemic organs and tissues and is characterized by scaly erythematous skin. Among the different types of psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is frequently reported, and occasionally develops into severe arthritis leadi...
