Pruritus severity in patients with psoriasis is not correlated with psoriasis disease severity  David Roblin, MD, FRCP, Ro Wickramasinghe, PhD, MBA, Gil Yosipovitch, MD  Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology  Volume 70, Issue 2, Pages 390-391 (February 2014) DOI: 10.1016/j.jaad.2013.09.030 Copyright © 2013 American Academy of Dermatology, Inc.

Fig 1 Lack of correlation between modified Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (mPASI) and pruritus visual analog scale (VAS) scores of study patients with psoriasis. Pruritus VAS scores, measuring pruritus severity, and mPASI scores, measuring psoriasis disease severity, were recorded in 157 patients at baseline enrolling for a clinical trial. The Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score was modified as the scalp and face were not assessed. In all, 160 patients were enrolled in the trial, but 3 patients were excluded from the correlation analysis as they did not have properly recorded VAS or mPASI scores. The correlation between VAS and mPASI scores in these patients was measured through the coefficient of determination (R2). A lack of correlation between VAS and mPASI scores was found. The R2 value was 3.8%, meaning that only 3.8% of the variability in pruritus severity could be explained by its relationship to psoriasis disease severity. FAS, Full analysis set.
