[PMID: 39146906 DOI: 10.1016/j.dsx.2024.103098] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2023] [Revised: 07/12/2024] [Accepted: 08/05/2024] [Indexed: 08/17/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION A strong link has been established between psoriasis and lipid disturbances; however, no study has systematically examined their global epidemiology. METHODS We searched six databases from their inception up to October 1, 2023. Data analysis was conducted using Stata SE 15.1. We performed subgroup, meta-regression, and sensitivity analyses to assess the heterogeneity of the pooled studies. RESULTS Our review included 239 studies comprising 15,519,570 participants. The pooled prevalence rate of dyslipidemia among individuals with psoriasis was 38 %. CONCLUSION Patients with severe psoriasis should undergo screening for lipid abnormalities. This can facilitate the early detection of lipid dysfunction and associated cardiovascular comorbidities.

Rheumatology (Oxford) 2023; 62:3584-3591. [PMID: 36897031 DOI: 10.1093/rheumatology/kead100] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/11/2022] [Revised: 02/07/2023] [Accepted: 02/21/2023] [Indexed: 03/11/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the association of the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index with atherosclerotic risk among patients with PsA. METHODS This cross-sectional study included 165 consecutive PsA patients receiving carotid ultrasonography with integrated TyG index, calculated as ln [fasting triglycerides (mg/dl) × fasting glucose (mg/dl)/2]. Logistic regression models were applied to analyse the association of TyG index as continuous variables and tertiles with carotid atherosclerosis and carotid artery plaque. Fully adjusted model included sex, age, smoking, BMI, comorbidities and psoriatic-related variables. RESULTS Overall, PsA patients with carotid atherosclerosis had substantially higher TyG index than those without [8.82 (0.50) vs 8.54 (0.55), P = 0.002]. The frequency of carotid atherosclerosis was increased with increases in TyG index tertiles, showing 14.8%, 34.5%, 44.6% for tertile 1, 2 and 3, respectively (P = 0.003). Multivariate logistic analyses showed that each 1-unit increase in TyG index was significantly associated with prevalent carotid atherosclerosis [unadjusted odds ratio (OR) 2.65 (1.39-5.05); fully adjusted OR 2.69 (1.02-7.11)]. Compared with patients in tertile 1 of TyG index, the unadjusted and fully adjusted OR for occurrence of carotid atherosclerosis were 4.64 (1.85-11.60) and 5.10 (1.54-16.93) in patients in tertile 3. Similarly, higher prevalent carotid artery plaque was observed with increasing TyG index [unadjusted OR 3.11 (1.54-6.26); fully adjusted OR 3.61 (1.15-11.38)] or in tertile 3 vs tertile 1 [unadjusted OR 10.20 (2.83-36.82); fully adjusted OR 17.89 (2.88-111.11)]. Additionally, TyG index provided incremental predictive capacity beyond established risk factors, shown by an increase in discrimination ability (all P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS TyG index was positively correlated with the burden of atherosclerosis in PsA patients, independent of traditional cardiovascular risk factors and psoriatic-related factors. These findings suggest that TyG index may be a promising atherosclerotic marker for the PsA population.

Abstract
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is an inflammatory disease with a high prevalence of cardiovascular (CV) events due to traditional cardiovascular risk factors and increased systemic inflammation. In this review, our objectives were to (i) evaluate the cardiovascular events and risk factors and (ii) investigate the relationship between autonomic dysfunction and CV diseases in PsA. A systematic review of the literature was done on the Medline/PubMed, Scopus, and the Directory of Open Access Journals databases between January 2017 and July 2022. After screening and exclusions, 73 studies were included for the final review. Patients with PsA have a greater risk of CV diseases and increased traditional CV risk factors, including hypertension, diabetes mellitus, obesity, metabolic syndrome, and dyslipidemia. Although autonomic dysfunction is more common in PsA than in the general population, its relationship with increased CV diseases in these patients is still unclear. Limitations in explaining CV risk in these patient groups complicate patient assessment as cardiovascular risk factors are linked to the morbidity and mortality of PsA, and it is essential to improve an optimal screening and management strategy for CV disease. All CV risk scoring systems cannot fully assess the CV risk in these patients, so in addition to scoring systems, carotid ultrasound evaluation may be a part of the CV evaluation.

Abstract
Background Taurine supplementation as a sulfur-containing amino acid may attenuate and/or alleviate diabetes-induced complications and endothelial dysfunction via its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities. Our purpose was to investigate the effect of Taurine supplementation on endothelial dysfunction markers, oxidative stress, inflammation, and glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods In the current clinical trial, 120 patients with T2DM were randomly allocated to take either Taurine (containing 1 g Taurine, n = 60) or placebo (n = 60) three times per day for an eight-week period. Moreover, all patients were on a low-calorie diet. The primary outcome was fasting blood glucose (FBG) and endothelial markers including sera intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1), vascular cell adhesion molecule (VCAM), and matrix metallopeptidase 9 (MMP-9). The secondary outcome was dietary intake, anthropometric indices, serum insulin and Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR), total antioxidant capacity (TAC), tumor necrosis factor (TNF), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), malondialdehyde (MDA), and lipid profile.
Results After 8 weeks, Taurine-supplemented patients had a considerable decrease in serum insulin and HOMA-IR compared to placebo group. However, Taurine supplementation did not improve other metabolic parameters including lipid profiles, glycated hemoglobin, and fasting blood glucose (FBG). There was a significant decline in MDA, TNF, and hs-CRP levels after these eight-week period of Taurine supplementation. In addition, the Taurine group had fewer serum levels of endothelial dysfunction markers than the placebo group. Conclusions The evidence from our study revealed that Taurine supplementation significantly reduced insulin and HOMA-IR, as well as oxidative stress, inflammation, and endothelial markers in individuals with T2DM.
Trial registration The protocol of the study was recorded in the Iranian Registry of Clinical Trials (IRCT20180712040438N3).

Abstract
Background The close relationship between psoriasis and concomitant diseases is widely accepted. However, a comprehensive analysis of organ-based comorbidities in psoriasis is still lacking. Objective The authors aimed to present the risk of organ-based comorbidities in psoriasis by comparing the general population. Methods The authors retrieved a search of Pubmed, EMBASE, and Cochrane databases for studies reporting organ-based comorbidities in psoriasis versus the general population. Observational studies that met the following criteria were assessed: 1) Psoriasis diagnosis; 2) Cardiovascular or kidney or liver or respiratory or cerebrovascular outcomes; 3) Comparison group of individuals without psoriasis. Pooled Relative Risks (pRRs) and 95% Confidence Intervals (CIs) were calculated by using the random-effect model. Results Fifteen observational studies with 216,348 psoriatic patients and 9,896,962 individuals from the general population were included. Psoriasis showed a greater risk of organ-based comorbidities. Compared to the general population, pRR for all organ-based comorbidities was 1.20 (95% CI 1.11‒1.31) in psoriasis, and pRR was lower in mild 0.61 (95% CI 0.46‒0.81) than in moderate/severe patients. pRR was 1.20 (95% CI 1.11‒1.30) for cardiovascular, 1.56 (95% CI 1.20‒2.04), and 1.75 (95% CI 1.33‒2.29) for cerebrovascular and liver diseases, respectively. pRR for coexisting renal and cardiovascular events was 1.09 (95% CI 1.01‒1.18). pRR for coexisting renal and cerebrovascular events was 1.28 (95% CI 0.99‒1.66). pRR for coexisting renal and liver diseases was 1.46 (95% CI 1.10‒1.94). pRR for coexisting cardiovascular and liver diseases was 1.41 (95% CI 1.11‒1.80). Study limitations There is heterogeneity. Conclusion Psoriasis has a higher risk of single and multiple organ-based comorbidities than the general population. The present study will further improve attention to psoriasis as a systemic inflammatory disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine the risk of type 2 diabetes among patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA). METHODS Electronic database searches of PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane Library were performed from inception to June 2020 and updated in May 2022. Cohort studies were included if they reported hazard ratios (HR) or relative risks with 95% confidence interval (CI) of incident diabetes in patients with PsA compared with non-rheumatic populations. Pooled HR and 95% CI were calculated using a DerSimonian and Laird method random-effects model. RESULTS A total of 5 studies comprising 37 811 PsA patients with 174 825 patient-years and 476 838 non-rheumatic controls with 2 945 358 patient-years were identified and included in our data analysis. During the follow-up, 2335 and 23 035 incident diabetes were observed in PsA and non-rheumatic control groups, corresponding to a crude incidence rate of 13.4 and 7.8 per 1000 patient-years, respectively. The pooled age- and gender-adjusted, and fully adjusted HR of incident diabetes in patients with PsA compared with non-rheumatic populations were 1.54 (95% CI: 1.43-1.67, I2 = 50.8%) and 1.38 (95% CI: 1.31-1.47, I2 = 0.0%), respectively. CONCLUSIONS Our study indicates a 38% increase in the risk of type 2 diabetes among patients with PsA, with an incidence rate of 13.4 per 1000 patients-years. These findings suggest the awareness of managing diabetes with careful screening of PsA patients in daily practice.

Abstract
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is part of a group of closely related clinical phenotypes ('psoriatic disease') that is defined by shared molecular pathogenesis resulting in excessive, prolonged inflammation in the various tissues affected, such as the skin, the entheses or the joints. Psoriatic disease comprises a set of specific drivers that promote an aberrant immune response and the consequent development of chronic disease that necessitates therapeutic intervention. These drivers include genetic, biomechanical, metabolic and microbial factors that facilitate a robust and continuous mobilization, trafficking and homing of immune cells into the target tissues. The role of genetic variants involved in the immune response, the contribution of mechanical factors triggering an exaggerated inflammatory response (mechanoinflammation), the impact of adipose tissue and altered lipid metabolism and the influence of intestinal dysbiosis in the disease process are discussed. Furthermore, the role of key cytokines, such as IL-23, IL-17 and TNF, in orchestrating the various phases of the inflammatory disease process and as therapeutic targets in PsA is reviewed. Finally, the nature and the mechanisms of inflammatory tissue responses inherent to PsA are summarized.

Abstract
Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic autoimmune inflammatory joint disease related to psoriasis (PsO). The risk of PsA patients with cardiovascular disease (CVD) is significantly higher than that of the general population. At present, the relevant mechanism is not clear, chronic inflammation and traditional cardiovascular risk factors are the most important factors for the increased risk of CVD in PsA patients. Early assessment of the risk of PsA patients with CVD, and active control of the disease activity of PsA patients and intervention of traditional cardiovascular risk factors can delay the progression of CVD risk. This article reviews the epidemiology and pathogenesis between PsA and CVD, and reviews the latest developments in the risk assessment and management of CVD in PsA patients.

Abstract
AIMS To prospectively examine the association between arthritis and type 2 diabetes (T2D) in the Chinese population and confirm this association through a comprehensive meta-analysis of cohort studies. METERIALS AND METHODS Data were from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study which was started in 2011-2013 and followed up in 2013-2014 and 2015-2016. Arthritis was defined as self-reported physician diagnosis at baseline, and incident T2D was determined by self-reported physician diagnosis, fasting blood glucose ≥7.0 mmol/L or glycosylated haemoglobin ≥6.5% during the follow-ups. Cox proportional hazards regression models were used to assess the association between arthritis and risk for T2D. A meta-analysis was conducted to pool our effect estimate and those from other cohort studies using a random-effects model. RESULTS Eleven thousand four hundred and eight participants (47.9% men; mean age: 59.3 years) were included in final analyses. During a 4-year follow-up, 981 participants reported incident T2D. Compared with individuals without arthritis, those with arthritis at baseline had an 18% higher risk for incident T2D (multivariable-adjusted hazard ratio: 1.18; 95% confidence interval: 1.04, 1.34). In the meta-analysis of 13 cohort studies including ours, a total of 2,473,514 participants were included with 121,851 incident diabetes. The pooling HR was 1.32 (95% CI: 1.21, 1.44) for the association between arthritis and diabetes. CONCLUSION Arthritis was associated with an increased risk of incident diabetes in Chinese adults, and the positive association was confirmed in the meta-analysis of cohort studies. Our work can inform clinical trials to assess the effectiveness of arthritis treatments in reducing risk of diabetes.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is common in immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs) and it is predominately attributed to the interplay between chronic inflammation and traditional CVD risk factors. CVD has significant impact on the survival of patients with IMIDs as it is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Despite recommendations for monitoring and managing CVD in patients with IMIDs, the individual CVD risk assessment remains problematic as CVD risk calculators for the general population consistently underestimate the risk in patients with IMIDs. Application of new technologies utilizing artificial intelligence techniques have shown promising potential for tailoring predictive medicine to the individual patient, but further validation of their role in clinical decision-making is warranted. In the meantime, individuals with IMIDs should be encouraged to adopt behavioral interventions targeting at modifiable lifestyle CVD risk factors, whereas rheumatologists need to be well aware of the unfavorable effects of antirheumatic medication on various CVD risk factors and outcomes. In the current paper, we aim to provide an overview of current and emerging strategies for mitigating CVD risk in patients with IMIDs, based on a practical approach.

Abstract
Importance Psoriasis, venous thromboembolism (VTE), and peripheral vascular disease (PVD) share similar mechanisms involving chronic inflammation. However, the associations between psoriasis and VTE or PVD are unclear. Objective To determine the association of psoriasis with incident VTE and PVD. Data Sources MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature were systematically searched for relevant publications from their respective inception through May 21, 2021. No restrictions on language or geographic locations were imposed. Study Selection Two authors independently selected cohort studies that investigated the risk for incident VTE or PVD in patients with psoriasis. Any discrepancy was resolved through discussion with 2 senior authors until reaching consensus. Only 13 initially identified studies met the selection criteria for qualitative review, and only 9 of these for quantitative analysis. Data Extraction and Synthesis The Meta-analysis of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (MOOSE) reporting guideline was followed. Two authors independently extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies by using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Disagreements were resolved by discussion with 2 other authors. A random-effects model meta-analysis was conducted to calculate the pooled hazard ratios (HRs) with the corresponding confidence intervals for incident VTE and PVD. Subgroup analyses based on arthritis status, psoriasis severity, sex, and geographic location were also performed. Main Outcomes and Measures Hazard ratios for incident VTE and PVD associated with psoriasis. Results A total of 13 cohort studies with 12 435 982 participants were included. The meta-analysis demonstrated a significantly increased risk for incident VTE (pooled HR, 1.26; 95% CI, 1.08-1.48) and PVD (pooled HR, 1.27; 95% CI, 1.16-1.40) among patients with psoriasis. Subgroup analyses illustrated increased risk for incident VTE among participants with psoriatic arthritis (pooled HR, 1.24; 95% CI, 1.01-1.53), women (pooled HR, 1.89; 95% CI, 1.36-2.61), and those in Asia (pooled HR, 2.02; 95% CI, 1.42-2.88) and Europe (pooled HR, 1.28; 95% CI, 1.06-1.53). Conclusions and Relevance This systematic review and meta-analysis found an increased risk for incident VTE and PVD among patients with psoriatic disease. Typical presentations of VTE or PVD should not be overlooked in patients with psoriasis. Risk factors, such as obesity, physical inactivity, smoking, and varicose veins, should be identified and treated in patients with psoriasis, and medications like hormone-related therapies should be prescribed with caution.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the risk of a diagnosis of osteoarthritis (OA) in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) compared to patients with psoriasis and a general population cohort. METHODS Incident PsA patients aged 18-89 years at diagnosis were identified from the United Kingdom Clinical Practice Research Datalink between 1998 and 2014. All patients with PsA were matched to 2 cohorts of patients, both at a 1:4 ratio. The first cohort included patients with psoriasis (and no PsA) and the second was a general population cohort (with no psoriasis or PsA). The baseline prevalence of OA was calculated for each study cohort. The incidence of OA was calculated, and adjusted relative risks (RRadj) were calculated using conditional Poisson regression. RESULTS We identified 6783 incident PsA patients. The baseline prevalence of OA ranged from 22.1% (95% CI 21.1-23.1) in the PsA cohort to 12.6% (95% CI 12.2-13.0) and 11.0% (95% CI 10.6-11.3) in the psoriasis and general population cohorts, respectively. The incidence of OA was significantly higher in the PsA cohort compared to the psoriasis and general population cohorts after adjusting for BMI (RRadj 1.68, 95% CI 1.46-1.93, and RRadj 1.86, 95% CI 1.62-2.14, respectively). CONCLUSION An increased risk of OA was observed in patients with PsA compared to patients with psoriasis alone and those in the general population. Further work is needed to determine whether this reflects a true increase in OA risk or misdiagnosed PsA, and the extent to which it can be explained by differences in the opportunity for OA diagnosis between cohorts.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) are inflammatory diseases that affect women in their reproductive years. We aimed to investigate whether maternal psoriasis and PsA are associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes. METHODS We searched multiple electronic databases from inception to 3 August 2020, and reference lists of selected articles. Observational studies reporting at least one pregnancy outcomes in women with psoriasis or PsA with a comparator of general population or healthy subjects were included. Data were pooled by random-effects models and expressed as odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI). RESULTS Overall, 16 studies were included in the meta-analysis. The pooled analyses showed pregnant women with psoriatic diseases have significantly higher risk of adverse maternal outcomes compared with general population (caesarean delivery: 1.33 (1.17-1.52); preterm birth: 1.32 (1.15-1.52); (pre)eclampsia: 1.28 (1.14-1.43); gestational diabetes: 1.19 (1.10-1.30); gestational hypertension: 1.30 (1.18-1.44). However, no statistically increased risks of fetal complications were observed in women with psoriatic diseases (small for gestational age: 1.02 (0.93-1.11); low birth weight: 1.15 (0.93-1.42); congenital malformations: 1.03 (0.93-1.14); Apgar score <7: 1.07 (0.81-1.39); neonatal mortality: 1.13 (0.90-1.43); stillbirth: 1.19 (0.95-1.50)). Subgroup analysis found similar results in women with either psoriasis or PsA regarding maternal outcomes and the magnitude of risk estimates seems to be greater in PsA though without statistical difference. CONCLUSIONS Pregnant women with psoriasis and PsA have excess risk of adverse maternal events, but not adverse neonatal events. Close monitoring of the mothers' clinical status before and during pregnancy is decidedly required in daily practice.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare body composition in PsA with metabolic disease free (MDF) controls and type 2 diabetes and assess body-composition predicted propensity for cardiometabolic disease. METHODS Detailed MRI body composition profiles of 26 PsA participants from the IMAPA study were compared with 130 age, sex and BMI-matched MDF controls and 454 individuals with type 2 diabetes from UK Biobank. The body-composition predicted propensity for coronary heart disease (CHD) and type 2 diabetes was compared between PsA and matched MDF controls. RESULTS PsA participants had a significantly greater visceral adipose tissue (VAT) volume [mean 5.89 l (s.d. 2.10 l)] compared with matched-MDF controls [mean 4.34 l (s.d. 1.83 l)] (P <0.001) and liver fat percentage [median 8.88% (interquartile range 4.42-13.18%)] compared with MDF controls [3.29% (1.98-7.25%)] (P <0.001). These differences remained significant after adjustment for age, sex and BMI. There were no statistically significant differences in VAT, liver fat or muscle fat infiltration (MFI) between PsA and type 2 diabetes. PsA participants had a lower thigh muscle volume than MDF controls and those with type 2 diabetes. Body composition-predicted propensity for CHD and type 2 diabetes was 1.27 and 1.83 times higher, respectively, for PsA compared with matched-MDF controls. CONCLUSION Individuals with PsA have an adverse body composition phenotype with greater visceral and ectopic liver fat and lower thigh muscle volume than matched MDF controls. Body fat distribution in PsA is more in keeping with the pattern observed in type 2 diabetes and is associated with greater propensity to cardiometabolic disease. These data support the need for greater emphasis on weight loss in PsA management to lessen CHD and type 2 diabetes risk.

Abstract
The spondyloarthritides are a group of chronic systemic inflammatory joint diseases, the main types being ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Evidence accumulating during the last decades suggests that patients with AS or PsA carry an increased risk for cardiovascular disease and cardiovascular death. This risk appears to be mediated by systemic inflammation over and above classical cardiovascular risk factors. The excess cardiovascular risk in those patients has been formally acknowledged by scientific organizations, which have called physicians' attention to the matter. The application by Rheumatologists of new effective anti-rheumatic treatments and treat-to-target strategies seems to benefit patients from a cardiovascular point of view, as well. However, more data are needed in order to verify whether anti-rheumatic treatments do have an effect on cardiovascular risk and whether there are differences among them in this regard. Most importantly, a higher level of awareness of the cardiovascular risk is needed among patients and healthcare providers, better tools to recognize at-risk patients and, ultimately, commitment to address in parallel both the musculoskeletal and the cardiovascular aspect of the disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a progressive joint disease associated with psoriasis. OBJECTIVES To investigate the association of modifiable lifestyle and environmental factors with PsA risk among people with psoriasis. METHODS We conducted a systematic search of PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library through May 2, 2020, for observational studies reporting lifestyle or environmental factors for PsA onset in patients with psoriasis. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were combined using a random-effects model. RESULTS We included 16 studies comprising 322,967 individuals. Obesity and being overweight were associated with an increased PsA risk in patients with psoriasis (OR, 1.75 [95% CI, 1.42-2.16] and OR, 1.50 [95% CI, 1.08-2.09], respectively), with an increase of approximately 6% for each kg/m2 rise in body mass index (OR, 1.06; 95% CI, 1.03-1.10). The presence of PsA was associated with a history of physical trauma (OR, 1.33; 95% CI, 1.16-1.54) or fracture (OR, 1.46; 95% CI, 1.22-1.74). No significant associations were observed regarding alcohol consumption (OR, 0.99; 95% CI, 0.88-1.13), smoking (OR, 0.89; 95% CI, 0.75-1.06), female hormonal exposure (OR, 1.45; 95% CI, 0.95-2.20), and psychologically traumatic events. LIMITATIONS Inherent limitations in the included observational studies. CONCLUSIONS Several lifestyle and environmental factors are associated with PsA onset among patients with psoriasis. These findings indicate that such risk may be modified with lifestyle changes or avoidance of physical trauma in people with psoriasis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic immune-mediated inflammatory spondyloarthropathy associated with psoriasis. PsA is frequently associated with metabolic disorders including, obesity, metabolic syndrome, and diabetes mellitus (DM). Type 2 DM is among the most common metabolic disorders, with a prevalence ranging from 2.4 to 14.8% in the general population. METHODS We conducted a narrative review of the English-language studies from January 1989 to September 2019 investigating the risk of type 2 DM in patients with PsA, the pathogenic mechanism linking DM to PsA, and the effects on insulin sensitivity exerted by systemic therapies for PsA. RESULTS The prevalence of type 2 DM in patients with PsA ranges from 6.1 to 20.2%, generally higher when compared to the general population. The higher risk of DM is reported in women with more severe forms of PsA. Elevated serum levels of adipokines, including TNF-α, which inhibits the autophosphorylation of the insulin receptor and suppresses the expression of glucose transporter 4, favor insulin resistance and could partially explain the association between PsA and DM. Moreover, adiponectin and omentin, with insulin-sensitizing and anti-atherogenic properties, are decreased in patients with PsA. Some of the treatments for PsA could affect the glucose homeostasis. Systemic corticosteroids are known to impair insulin resistance, whereas apremilast (phosphodiesterase type 4 inhibitor) and TNF-α inhibitors could exert neutral effect or reduce the insulin-resistance. The role of IL-17 or IL-23 inhibitors has been marginally investigated. CONCLUSIONS Patients affected by PsA have a higher prevalence of type 2 DM compared with the general population. The mechanism linking PsA with DM has not been completely clarified, but some of the principal mediators could be TNF-α and adipokine, especially adiponectin and omentin. Apremilast and TNF-α inhibitor may have a favorable effect and could be safely used in patients with DM.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cardiovascular comorbidity is a major burden in patients with chronic inflammatory rheumatic diseases and a significant determinant of their outcome. In addition to optimal management of the underlying inflammatory condition according to current guidelines, individual cardiovascular risk factors, particularly dyslipidaemia, hypertension, and impaired glucose tolerance should be assessed regularly and guide risk stratification and requirement for treatment. AREAS DISCUSSED We critically reviewed manuscripts and guidelines on the pharmacological management of dyslipidaemia, hypertension, and diabetes in patients with chronic inflammatory rheumatic diseases (PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, Scopus, Web of Science and Google Scholar, up to 1 March 2020). Lifestyle changes are of paramount importance for the management of these risk factors. In the current narrative review, we discuss pharmacological therapies available and emerging therapies aiming to help patients achieve recommended targets, depending on their individual risk. EXPERT OPINION CVD risk is increased in people with chronic inflammatory rheumatic diseases. Cardiovascular risk factor management is an essential part of their care. Although relevant guidance exists, there are still major gaps in knowledge and risk factor management implementation in these patient groups. Some practical guidance based on our interpretation of existing data and experience in the field is provided in this review.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a chronic inflammatory rheumatism characterized for a long time by a high degree of cardiovascular risk. Chronic inflammation is one of the mechanisms that explain this cardiovascular excess of risk through direct and indirect pathways. In recent years, epidemiological data have changed somewhat since the increasing use of bio-drugs that are effective in reducing this inflammation. The purpose of this review is to assess the current state of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in PsA and thus to assess the cardiovascular risk in case of PsA. METHOD We conducted a literature review using Pubmed and Medline databases with the following keywords "Psoriatic Arthritis" AND "cardiovascular" including articles from the last three years. RESULTS It appears that in case of PsA, there is an increased prevalence of high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity and dyslipidemia, and therefore of metabolic syndrome. Insulin resistance is closely linked to PsA. On the other hand, the data are more contrasted for active smoking. There is also arterial inflammation specific to PsA. Finally, at the therapeutic level, the impact of NSAIDs remains controversial, while methotrexate and bio-drugs are beneficial at the cardiovascular level. CONCLUSION PsA is characterized by an increase in cardiovascular morbidity in relation with insulin resistance. Current treatments seem to improve this risk with a decrease in cardiovascular mortality in comparison with patients with plaque psoriasis but this requires confirmation in larger prospective studies.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease which could lead to serious complications and increased risk of cardiovascular diseases. Psoriasis was recognised as a serious non-communicable disease with important public health impact by member states in the World Health Assembly resolution in 2014. However, data on psoriasis epidemiology are scarce worldwide, especially from low-income and middle-income countries. Only a few epidemiological studies on psoriasis have been conducted in parts of China, mostly without appropriate sampling design and data analysis. AIM This study aims to obtain the prevalence of psoriasis in China and relevant risk factors through a nationwide, population-based study with adequate statistical design. METHODS AND ANALYSIS This is a cross-sectional study to be conducted in 60 sites across China. A multistage, cluster random sampling design is used. Participants should have local household registration or be residing in the survey area for at least 6 months during the past year. The presence of psoriasis is ascertained independently by two certified dermatologists. If any discrepancies in the diagnosis occur, consensus will be met via discussion. All participants will be interviewed with a questionnaire to collect sociodemographic and disease information. The field survey will be implemented from October 2018 to June 2019. All statistical analyses will be conducted using survey procedures in SAS V.9.2 software to adjust for the complex sample design. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION The study has been reviewed and approved by the ethics committee of the Institute of Dermatology, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College (Nanjing, China). A written informed consent will be obtained from all participants before the questionnaire survey. Findings of the study will be disseminated through publications in peer-reviewed journals.
