2. Description
Psonet is a network of population-based registries of systemic treatment for psoriasis in Europe. Twelve registries at different stages of development are associated in Psonet to date in the following countries: Australia, Denmark, France, Germany, Israel, Italy, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, The Netherlands, United Kingdom. An interest in collaborating has been also expressed by representatives of the Lithuanian registry and by a Tunisian group. Criteria for merging data from the registries have been developed and rules for conducting combined analyses have been established. Deliverables of the Psonet collaboration would include (1) comparative data on treatment strategies for psoriasis in Europe; (2) rapid alerts on newly recognised unexpected events; (3) regular reports on specific issues concerning effectiveness and safety. Collaboration with rheumatologic registries has been envisaged. A link with the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology has been established.
