Does effective therapy of psoriasis prevent the development of psoriatic arthritis? - PubMed

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/42540001

Effective psoriasis treatment, particularly IL-23 inhibition, may lower psoriatic arthritis risk. Metabolic factors like obesity also play a role. Longitudinal studies are required to confirm.


Biologic therapies, especially IL-23 blockade, may reduce psoriatic arthritis progression. Metabolic factors like obesity also modify risk. Further studies are needed to confirm causality.

Did you know? Obesity is a chronic, relapsing neurobiological disease driven by dysregulation of appetite-regulating hormones and energy homeostasis. GLP-1 receptor agonism reduces caloric intake centrally and slows gastric emptying. In the STEP 1 trial, once-weekly semaglutide achieved sustained weight reductions with many patients losing more than 15% of body weight, along with meaningful improvements in cardiometabolic risk factors.
