Abstract

Background: Psoriasis, a chronic skin complication been considered in the recent years by dermatologists as a systemic disease with multi organ abnormalities. Dyslipidemia commonly observed in psoriasis patients may result in cardiovascular complications hence a prompt routine cardiovascular risk evaluation is essential in these patients. A study was designed to assess plasma lipid profile as well as cardiovascular risk markers in psoriasis patients to find out the relationship between cardiovascular risk indicators and psoriasis disease severity.

Methods: Study consists of 200 subjects including 100 psoriatics. These psoriatics were sub-grouped based on their increasing PASI score into four groups.

Results: The results indicate a significant elevation in lipid parameters and in cadiac risk ratio, atherogenic index of plasma as well as atherogenic coefficient in psoriatics as compared to normal controls. Further a parallel raise has seen in these lipid parameters and risk indicators based on their increasing PASI score.

Conclusions: It can be stated from the study results that psoriatics are more affected group for cardiovascular complications and a proper evaluation of cardiovascular risk indicators in these patients is essential in preventing development of cardiovascular risk. Further the risk indicators atherogenic index of plasma and atherogenic coefficient are more promising in evaluating cardiovascular risk in psoriases patients.
