Description
Xinyan Liu, Keou Li, Tingxuan Huang, and Hongfeng Tang look for a blood marker tied to psoriasis, the skin condition that brings heavy physical and mental burdens. Their 2024 study tests a ratio built from cholesterol measures: all the cholesterol outside the protective kind, divided by that protective kind. Data came from a national United States survey program covering nearly eighteen thousand people.
Across three statistical models, a higher ratio went with a higher chance of having psoriasis. The link held after adjusting for other factors, and it did not change across groups split by age, sex, background, habits, or other diseases. A curve analysis showed the relation is not a straight line: risk rises in a bent pattern as the ratio grows. The authors suggest the ratio could serve as a simple marker for judging psoriasis risk and guiding early health steps.
