Psoriasis (Pso) is a chronic inflammatory immune-mediated skin disease associated with several comorbidities. Despite the growing number of studies providing evidence for the link between Pso and Cardiovascular (CV) disorders, there are still many unsolved questions, dealing with the role of the skin disease as an independent risk factor for CV events, the influence of Pso severity and duration on CV damage, the presence of Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) as a predictor of increased CV mortality and morbidity and the detection of reliable clinical, laboratory and/or instrumental parameters to stratify CV risk in psoriatic patients. Moreover, it remains to clarify if the early treatment of the dermatosis may lower CV risk. In this paper we will try to provide answers to these queries in the light of the updated data of the literature.
银屑病(Pso)是一种慢性炎症性免疫介导性皮肤病,与多种合并症相关。尽管越来越多的研究为银屑病与心血管(CV)疾病之间的关联提供了证据,但仍有许多悬而未决的问题,涉及皮肤病作为 CV 事件的独立危险因素的作用、银屑病严重程度和持续时间对 CV 损害的影响、存在银屑病关节炎(PsA)作为增加 CV 死亡率和发病率的预测因素,以及检测可靠的临床、实验室和/或仪器参数来对银屑病患者的 CV 风险进行分层。此外,仍需要阐明早期治疗皮肤病是否可以降低 CV 风险。在本文中,我们将根据文献的最新数据尝试回答这些问题。
