About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Psoriasis
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Patients of both sexes with psoriasis vulgaris.
Exclusion Criteria:
• Patients with history of malignancies, renal and liver diseases.
- Patients received NB-UVB phototherapy in the last 6 months.
- Patients treated with methotrexate or biologic agents and any systemic treatment of psoriasis.

Arm Description
Patients who receive Narrowband ultraviolet B phototherapy
Patients who receive acitretin
It includes apparently healthy people who will be compared to patients in the measurement of Omentin-1 level
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Decrease Omentin-1 serum level in both groups treated with NB-UVB and Acitretin
This outcome indicates potential role of Omentin-1 in psoriasis pathogenesis and its involvement in pathogenesis of obesity and related diseases as metabolic syndrome. So it will be concluded that high levels of this protein could be marker against obesity and related disorders including psoriasis. Omentin-1 can be valuable marker for psoriasis severity detected by its correlation with psoriasis area severity index (PASI) score and for evaluating the therapeutic outcomes
Secondary Outcome Measures
Decrease PASI score in psoriatic patients
Decrease in PASI score in psoriatic patients after treatment with NB-UVB acitretin

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
Studying the effects of Narrowband Ultraviolet B versus acitretin on psoriatic patients
Detailed Description
Compare the effects of Narrowband Ultraviolet B versus acitretin on serum Omentin-1 level in psoriatic patients as case control study by dividing patients into 3 groups: group 1 include patients receive Narrowband Ultraviolet B, group II includes patients receive acitretin (0.5-1 mg/day) and control group. The duration of this study about 3 months after receving those interventions.
