Background: Narrowband-ultraviolet B (NB-UVB) phototherapy is an effective treatment for psoriasis in patients who have failed topical regimens or those who desire to avoid systemic treatment. Despite its regular use in non-white individuals, NB-UVB treatment response for psoriasis in skin of color (SOC) has not been systematically reviewed.
Methods: We conducted a systematic review on the basis of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) on all available studies to date assessing NB-UVB for psoriasis treatment in skin of color (SOC) (up to 15 November 2024).

Background: Ethnic differences in the clinical and molecular features of many immune-mediated dermatoses have been reported, including psoriasis vulgaris and generalized pustular psoriasis. Palmoplantar pustulosis (PPP) is a chronic and relapsing inflammatory skin disease manifesting as crops of sterile pustules over an erythematous base on the palms and soles. To date, ethnic differences in PPP have been rarely studied.

Psoriasis is an immune-mediated chronic inflammatory skin disease affecting over 60 million adults and children worldwide and can occur at any age, from childhood to adulthood. If the patient has a diffuse form of psoriasis, affecting more than ten percent of the body surface, or involving sensitive areas such as the face, scalp, nails, and/or palmoplantar region, he or she is a candidate for systemic therapy. Currently, several drugs are approved for the treatment of moderate to severe chronic plaque psoriasis in Europe and US.
