Multimorbid pathology at psoriasis (scientific review)

Abstract

Chronic auto-inflammatory process in psoriasis is associated with the involvement of internal organs and systems, as well as the development of several systemic disorders: heart failure, psoriatic arthritis, diabetes, obesity, etc. In this regard, the purpose of our study is to integrate information about comorbid and concomitant pathology in patients with psoriasis. Data on the biological aspects of the increased risk of occurrence and adverse cardiovascular outcome of myocardial infarction, stroke and cardiovascular mortality in patients with psoriasis are supported by clinical observations on the relationship of the course of coronary heart disease with the area of skin lesion. The association between the presence of obesity and an increased level of proinflammatory cytokines has been confirmed, which may be one of the triggers for the development of psoriatic arthritis associated with early disability of patients with psoriasis. There was a greater incidence of non-response to psoriasis treatment among obese patients. Cardiovascular complications are the most common cause of death for patients with psoriasis. Identifying common combinations of comorbid and concomitant diseases in the main chronic disease can serve as a basis for the development of tactics and criteria for patient management in order to optimize treatment.
