Is psoriasis a pre‐atherosclerotic disease? Increased insulin resistance and impaired endothelial function in patients with psoriasis

Abstract

This study demonstrated a significant impairment in endothelial function and increased insulin resistance in patients with psoriasis. This is a comprehensive study for identifying atherosclerotic risk factors in psoriasis. We suggest that psoriatic patients should be paid attention for atherosclerosis and its risk factors.
