Article Synopsis
- Research on the connection between psoriasis and thyroid dysfunction shows mixed results, prompting an investigation into this relationship among different types of psoriasis.
- In a study of 85 psoriasis patients, 14% were found to have thyroid dysfunction, with the highest prevalence in those with generalized pustular psoriasis (GPP).
- Patients with thyroid dysfunction had worse psoriasis severity and higher levels of inflammation (as indicated by C-reactive protein) compared to those without thyroid issues, suggesting a link between thyroid problems and psoriasis-related inflammation.
