PORTLAND, Ore., Feb. 12, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) led collaborative efforts among clinical, biomedical and public health experts to develop the first-ever public health agenda for psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis, giving federal recognition to millions of Americans living with these diseases.

A short article on the agenda was released online today in the American Journal of Preventative Medicine, highlighting the gaps in psoriatic disease research to guide future public health efforts into these diseases. View the full report at http://www.psoriasis.org/cdcagenda.

"Psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis have many genetic and environmental causes that vary among individuals," said Andrew D. Robertson, chief scientific and medical officer for the National Psoriasis Foundation. "A public health approach to psoriatic diseases will allow scientists to better identify possible environmental contributions, which could potentially help us stop these diseases before they start."

In 2009, after a multi-year advocacy campaign by National Psoriasis Foundation advocates and leaders, Congress allocated $1.5 million to the CDC to commence the first-ever government data collection effort on psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. Through extensive collaboration, the coalition created a list of priorities, needs and unanswered questions in psoriatic disease research.

"Public health efforts exist for other chronic diseases like heart disease and diabetes, yet psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis have not had similar attention, despite their prevalence and profound burden on health care costs, quality of life and employment," said Randy Beranek, National Psoriasis Foundation president and CEO.

The public health agenda focuses on four priorities:

A chronic, genetic disease of the immune system, psoriasis is the most prevalent autoimmune disease in the country, affecting as many as 7.5 million Americans. Psoriasis puts people at increased risk for other health concerns such as heart disease, diabetes and obesity. Up to 30 percent of people with psoriasis develop psoriatic arthritis, an inflammatory arthritis that affects the joints and tendons. If left untreated, it can cause irreversible joint damage.

The agenda clearly states the need for research into basic questions, such as the age at which psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis appear, how the diseases start and develop over time, and possible differences in how they affect certain groups, such as younger versus older people.

"To successfully answer these questions, and address other research needs, the engagement of the larger dermatology and public health communities is needed," Robertson said. "The Psoriasis Foundation looks forward to creating opportunities that facilitate involvement among interested parties to move this public health agenda forward."

Psoriasis, Depression Dysphoria
*WARNING* Some may consider this topic what is called a "trigger" so take that as you will. Also these are my views and don #39;t necessarily reflect anyone else in any community I mention in the video. Video is kind of long and rambling but I just wanted to talk about how I feel and expand on one of the reasons I am here. Life long diseases suck. Psoriasis is treatable and can #39;t be given to anyone, BUT just because you can treat it doesn #39;t mean it doesn #39;t affect you. It would be like me saying (for example) you can #39;t be depressed as a trans FTM because you can go on T and have surgery to "fix" your issue. Just because you can do things to minimize / treat the issue there is still the underlying source of the problem. There is no perm fix. All that being said, it is about moving forward to making yourself as happy as possible with what you have. Depression and Dysphoria sucks but you can work to minimize it to the point where you can be happy with yourself and your life. That #39;s what going to treatments or therapists or what have you is all about. Well that #39;s about it for now. On a side note I am also playing around with other editing software to see what I like as Windows Movie Maker (what I used before) kinda sucks. Hopefully this one is a bit better. At least it is easier to work with than WMM or Adobe Premiere. TTFN!
