The etiopathogenesis of psoriasis is still unclear. Associations between gut and skin diseases are well known, since psoriatic patients show a high prevalence of coeliac disease. Small-bowel abnormalities can cause clinical or, more frequently, laboratory alterations that give rise to malabsorption. The aim of the study was to evaluate the prevalence of malabsorption in psoriatic patients.

Abstract
The etiopathogenesis of psoriasis is still unclear. Associations between gut and skin diseases are well known, since psoriatic patients show a high prevalence of coeliac disease. Small-bowel abnormalities can cause clinical or, more frequently, laboratory alterations that give rise to malabsorption. The aim of the study was to evaluate the prevalence of malabsorption in psoriatic patients.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
