Psoriatic arthritis: interaction between cardiometabolic diseases and inflammatory burden of the disease.

Background And Objetives: Psoriatic arthritis is accompained by several cardiometabolic comorbidities. Obesity causes a low-grade systemic inflammation and is a negative predictor of treatment response. We wanted to evaluate if there are interactions between metabolic status, inflammatory parameters and disease activity; and whether metabolic or cardiovascular diseases have any association with the reduction of the inflammatory burden by treating the psoriatic arthritis.
