Factors associated with high cardiovascular risk in psoriatic arthritis and non-psoriatic spondyloarthritis.

To identify the association between traditional cardiovascular risk factors, diseases related factors, body composition and adipokines with high cardiovascular risk (HCVR) in psoriatic arthritis and non-psoriatic spondyloarthritis. This was a cross-sectional study involving age and BMI matched adults with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) (n = 56) and non-psoriatic spondyloarthritis (nPsA-SpA) (n = 58). Body composition using whole-body dual energy X-ray absorptiometry, adipokines and disease characteristics along with cardiovascular risk scoring QRISK3 and carotid intimal medial thickness (CIMT) was collected.
