Serum levels of cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein, and high-density lipoprotein were measured after 12 hours of overnight fasting.Results: The serum levels of total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol were found to be higher in both the psoriatic and the control group; thus there were no statistically significant difference between both groups of individuals.Conclusion: Psoriasis is now emerging as an important systemic disease associated with various comorbid conditions that include diabetes, hypertension, and an abnormal lipid profile as reviewed by various studies. Such comorbid conditions that are linked with psoriasis have been associated with increasing rates of morbidity and mortality. Our study indicated that there was an increase in total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol in both patients and controls, indicating that there is an overall increase of these levels in the general population. Therefore, it is important that the lipid profiles of these patients continue to be studied.Keywords: psoriasis, lipid profile, serum cholesterol, serum triglycerides, serum LDL, serum HDLBhat RMPinto HPDove Medical PressarticleDermatologyRL1-803ENPsoriasis: Targets and Therapy, Vol 2012, Iss default, Pp 77-80 (2012)
