abstract: After analysis of 1146 psoriasis patients, high incidence of asymptomatic hyperuricemia (18.8%) and elevated average levels of uric acid in these patients' blood were confirmed (346.8 +/- 2.4 mumol/l). More severe forms of uric acid disbolism lead to aggravated skin affections (psoriatic erythrodermia, exudative psoriasis), arthritis, occur in familial predisposition to psoriasis. Advanced psoriasis patients are at risk to develop apparent gout.
