- The study explores the relationship between androgenetic alopecia (AGA) and metabolic syndrome (MetS) in male patients with severe psoriasis, noting inconsistent findings in previous research.
- It involved 1,073 male participants in France, where researchers evaluated MetS through a questionnaire and categorized AGA severity using a standard classification.
- Results indicated that severe AGA is significantly linked to components of MetS, especially in men over 59, suggesting the need for careful monitoring and screening in this population.
Background: Psoriasis is associated with higher prevalences of cardiovascular and metabolic comorbidities in adults but the relationship of age at onset and those prevalences is unknown.

Methods: This noninterventional, cross-sectional, multicentre study of adults with psoriasis was conducted in 29 dermatology centres in France.
