Based upon our results, PsA with HLA-B27 (+) had a threat of severe arthritis. PsA with HLA-Cw06 (+) had a higher risk of earlier onset and shorter duration for plaque psoriasis to transform into PsA. HLA-DR7 (+) in PsA delayed the time for conversion from plaque psoriasis into PsA. These findings are quite similar to other studies in the literature %K Psoriasis %K Psoriatic arthritis %K HLA-B27 %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6364717/
