Abstract
Tissue typing was performed of 62 patients with guttate psoriasis, in 44 of whom this was the 1st manifestation of the disease. In 84% of the cases, the guttate psoriasis was preceded by a clinical infection. A highly significant excess of antigen HL-A-BW17 was found in patients when compared with a healthy population. Antigens HL-A-B13, HL-A-BW15 and HL-A-BW21 were found in excess, but these became non-significant after correction for the number of antigens studied. Of the patients who had guttate psoriasis de novo, 68% subsequently developed persistent plaque psoriasis.This publication has 14 references indexed in Scilit:
