Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
The improvement of psoriasis area and severity index scores(PASI scores)	At baseline, 2 weeks and 4 weeks after baseline.	The improvement of psoriasis area and severity index scores(PASI scores) are a system that assesses the damage of psoriasis severity and treatment response . The system is used to classify and evaluate according to the severity of lesions, areas of skin lesion and body surface area ratio of various body parts.
The overall evaluation of the researchers (Physician Global Assessment,PGA)	At baseline, 2 weeks and 4 weeks after baseline.	On every visiting viewpoint , researchers give a mark of the infiltration / hypertrophy (I), erythema (E) and scales (s) according to the level.PGA scores are acquired by the average of above three kinds of scores.
The Symptom score reduce index (SSRI)	4 weeks after baseline.	1)According to the improvement of psoriasis area and severity index scores(PASI scores) before and after treatments, the symptom score reduce index (SSRI) was calculated.; 2）The symptom score reduce index (SSRI) = (the PASI scores before treatment - the PASI scores after treatment) / the PASI scores before treatment x 100%
Efficiency of treatment	4 weeks after baseline.	1）Healing patients : SSRI ≥ 90%, Marked effectiveness patients : 60% \< SSRI \< 90%, Improvement patients : 20% \< SSRI \< 60%, ineffectiveness patients :SSRI \< 20%.; 2)Efficiency of treatment = (The number of healing patients + The number of markedly effective patients + The number of improved patients ) / total number of patients in this group x 100%

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Healing rate	4 weeks after treatment	1）Healing patients : SSRI ≥ 90%, Marked effectiveness patients : 60% \< SSRI \< 90%, Improvement patients : 20% \< SSRI \< 60%, ineffectiveness patients :SSRI \< 20%.; 2)Healing rate = The number of healing patients / total number of patients in this group x 100%
Response rate of PGA ( basic fading rate of PGA) after the treatment of 4 weeks	4 weeks after treatment	Response rate of PGA ( basic fading rate of PGA) after the treatment of 4 weeks：patients with 1 score of PGA for the last time/ total number of patients in this group x 100%
Markedly effective rate	4 weeks after treatment	1）Healing patients : SSRI ≥ 90%, Marked effectiveness patients : 60% \< SSRI \< 90%, Improvement patients : 20% \< SSRI \< 60%, ineffectiveness patients :SSRI \< 20%.; 2)Markedly effective rate = The number of markedly effective patients / total number of patients in this group x 100%
Response rate of PASI (PASI 75) after the treatment of 4 weeks	4 weeks after treatment	Response rate of PASI (PASI 75) after the treatment of 4 weeks = The number of patients whose SSRI are more than 75% / total number of patients x 100%
