 The study compared the burden of chronic urticaria, C.U., with psoriasis using data from U.S. National Health and Wellness Surveys from 2010 to 2012, and found that patients with C.U. had impaired mental physical health and work non-work activities similar to moderate to severe psoriasis patients. The study suggests that better disease management of C.U. is needed and highlights the significant burden of chronic idiopathic urticaria. This article was authored by Maryl H.
