What’s more, long duration, and the characteristics of recurrence brings heavy physical, psychological and economic burden to patients, seriously affects the patient’s health and quality of life physically and mentally. Psoriasis is a difficult miscellaneous disease and hot research spot of dermatology.This paper mainly includes literature review and clinical research. Literature review includes two articles, the first article mainly summarized the application about quality of living survey in clinical psoriasis research. The second mainly discussed the understanding of ancient physicians about psoriasis, including textual criticism of diseases presenting with similar symptoms of psoriasis and summary of the related disease’s pathogenesis and treatment of the formulas on the experience modern dermatologists and famous doctor of traditional Chinese medicine.The clinical study was designed under the specific reference standard of the clinical treatment of psoriasis guide.Research objective:to observe the factors that influence the quality of life of patients with vulgaris psoriasis and check the credibility of dermatology life quality survey scale (DLQI) as a clinical psoriasis severity evaluation standard.Methods:Adopting79patients with vulgaris psoriasis from Dongzhimen hospital dermatology outpatient as the research object (the treatment group was treated with Xiaoyinjiedu granule), collecting patients’general information, PASI (lesion severity index scores), DLQI (dermatology life quality score), information such as itching degree and the lesion area, using statistical methods for related data test between the two groups.Results:(1)the DLQI score was positively correlated with PASI score value, the correlation coefficient of r=0.501, p<0.01; but there existed negative cases,(2) the presence of the itching is an independent factor affecting the quality of patients’ Life, p<0.05, but had no correlation with itching degree, p>0.05;(3) patients DLQI score value is positively related to the lesion area, p<0.01; Greatly influenced by PASI score values;(4) age, gender, and the duration had no correlation with the DLQI score value, p>0.05). Conclusion:patients with different gender, age and duration of patients with vulgaris psoriasis has high DLQI score value, and no obvious difference between each other, indicated that every tiny tip was needed to focus on clinical psoriasis patient’s quality of life; DLQ] score values was consistent with psoriatic lesion severity, and can be used as an evaluation index of clinical effect, but there existed negative cases, such as PASI score was low but DLQI value was very high in some cases, theî›'inical applying DLQI with PASI is a reasonable resolution to assess the severity of disease, and to improve the quality of life depend on the improvement of the physical symptoms, psychological comfort and social support can be used as adjuvant therapy but cannot replace medical treatment; As an independent influencing factor of psoriasis patients DLQI score value, paying more attention to the alleviation of itching in the treatment can largely improve the patients quality of life.
