BACKGROUND In recent years, more and more attention has been paid to the role of skin microcirculation in the pathogenesis of psoriasis. The vascular network of the skin is mainly distributed in the dermis and the subcutaneous fat layer join. The microvessels are composed of terminal arterioles, arteriovenous capillaries, and postcapillary venules. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of psoriasis by promoting angiogenesis. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the relationship between serum VEGF and psoriasis vulgaris. METHODS Embase, CENTRAL, PubMed, China Biology Medicine Database, China National Knowledge Database, Wan Fang Database, and Chong Qing VIP Database will be searched to collect case-control studies and cohort studies and evaluate the relationship between serum VEGF and psoriasis vulgaris. The search time limits will be from the establishment of the database to December 2020. Two researchers will independently screen the studies, extract data, and evaluate the risk of bias of the studies. The Meta-analysis will be carried out with the RevMan5.3 software. The quality of all included studies will be evaluated by the Newcastle-Ottawa scale. RESULTS This study will evaluate the relationship between serum VEGF and the pathogenesis of psoriasis vulgaris. CONCLUSIONS This study will provide a theoretical basis for the pathogenesis of psoriasis vulgaris. DOI 10.17605/OSF.IO/6DV8P.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D011565 Psoriasis A common genetically determined, chronic, inflammatory skin disease characterized by rounded erythematous, dry, scaling patches. The lesions have a predilection for nails, scalp, genitalia, extensor surfaces, and the lumbosacral region. Accelerated epidermopoiesis is considered to be the fundamental pathologic feature in psoriasis.

D000078202 Systematic Reviews as Topic Works about a review of primary literature in health and health policy that attempt to identify, appraise, and synthesize all the empirical evidence that meets specified eligibility criteria to answer a given research question. It's conducted using explicit methods aimed at minimizing bias in order to produce more reliable findings regarding the effects of interventions for prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation that can be used to inform decision making.

D016022 Case-Control Studies Comparisons that start with the identification of persons with the disease or outcome of interest and a control (comparison, referent) group without the disease or outcome of interest. The relationship of an attribute is examined by comparing both groups with regard to the frequency or levels of outcome over time.

D042461 Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor A The original member of the family of endothelial cell growth factors referred to as VASCULAR ENDOTHELIAL GROWTH FACTORS. Vascular endothelial growth factor-A was originally isolated from tumor cells and referred to as "tumor angiogenesis factor" and "vascular permeability factor". Although expressed at high levels in certain tumor-derived cells it is produced by a wide variety of cell types. In addition to stimulating vascular growth and vascular permeability it may play a role in stimulating VASODILATION via NITRIC OXIDE-dependent pathways. Alternative splicing of the mRNA for vascular endothelial growth factor A results in several isoforms of the protein being produced.
