Our research illustrates that appendicitis is associated with an increased likelihood of developing a psoriatic disease, despite several limitations. These limitations encompass variables such as dietary and smoking habits, alongside other potential confounding factors that were not fully considered. Moreover, inherent biases in utilizing national health insurance data, such as the absence of laboratory information, as well as the constraints inherent in a retrospective study design, should be acknowledged.
