The Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis Clinics Multicenter Advancement Network (PPACMAN) is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to optimize the clinical care of patients with psoriatic disease through multidisciplinary collaboration models. The PPACMAN 2021 Annual Meeting was held virtually on December 11, 2021. In all, 50 stakeholders participated in the meeting including dermatologists, rheumatologists, cardiologists, clinical researchers, patient advocacy representatives, and industry representatives. During the opening session of the meeting, presenters provided an update of several research projects dedicated to predicting and preventing psoriatic arthritis (PsA) such as the Psorcast, PAMPA, HIPPOCRATES, and the ELLIPSS studies. The second session centered around novel approaches to deliver multidisciplinary care in psoriatic disease. PPACMAN leadership introduced its wellness program and invited speakers to discuss new advances in cardiovascular disease, sleep disturbance, mental health problems, and dietary interventions in psoriatic disease. The final session of the meeting focused on how to improve patient engagement in their disease and care.

Background: Follicular psoriasis (FP) is a rare and under-recognized subtype of psoriasis that affects hair follicles and can be frequently misdiagnosed due to its unique presentation.

Objective: We aimed to analyze the frequently reported clinical, histological, and dermatoscopic features of FP, as well as their treatment options.

Methods: We conducted a systematic review of the PubMed/MEDLINE database using the search terms "follicular" and "psoriasis." Fourteen studies were included yielding information on 44 patients (27 adults [61.4%] and 17 children [38.6%]).

Results: Adult FP showed a female predominance (M:F = 1:2.7), frequent involvement of lower extremities (81.5%), association with metabolic syndrome including diabetes mellitus (22.2%), and a predilection for skin of color (SOC:White = 8:1). On the contrary, juvenile FP revealed male predominance (M:F = 1:0.6), frequent involvement of the trunk (41.2%), and exclusive involvement in skin of color (SOC:White = 11:0). In addition to its unique presentation, FP tends to be misdiagnosed due to its low incidence of concomitant psoriasis (31.8%), and rare personal (18.2%) or family history (6.8%) of psoriasis. Reported histopathological features include keratotic plugging, follicular parakeratosis with or without neutrophils, psoriasiform acanthosis, hypogranulosis, and neutrophilic infiltration of follicular epithelium. Dermatoscopic findings include folliculocentric lesions with normal appearing terminal hairs, perifollicular white scale, and various vascular structures.

Conclusion: Once correctly diagnosed, patients with FP showed improvement or resolution of symptoms with various combinations of topical and systemic therapies. Understanding the demographic features and clinical presentations of FP can help address under-recognition of this clinical variant of psoriasis.

Objectives: Most psoriatic arthritis (PsA) research and studies focus solely on the skin and joint manifestations, but there is also an increased risk of metabolic disorders, including insulin resistance (IR). This study aims to discover the relationship between IR and disease activity (DA) in PsA and its phenotype.

Materials and methods: Patients with PsA classified using the CASPAR criteria with the disease activity was measured using the DAPSA score, and IR was identified as an elevated HOMA-IR of >2.5. The disease phenotype was determined with Moll and Wright's classification of the PsA subtype. The Pearson correlation test examined the relationship between DA and IR. The descriptive analysis was conducted to determine the relationship between the DAPSA score and HOMA-IR value in each PsA phenotype. All tests were two-tailed, analysed with GraphPad Prism 9, and a P-value of less than .05 was considered statistically significant.

Results: From thirty-one patients, there was a strong and positive relationship between DA and IR (r = .768, P = .000). We also observed variations in DAPSA score and HOMA-IR value across different phenotypes, with symmetrical polyarthritis exhibiting the highest DAPSA score (21.55 ± 3.50) and HOMA-IR value (2.913 ± .5392) despite asymmetrical oligoarthritis that being the most frequent phenotype.

Conclusion: Our study revealed a significant association between disease activity and insulin resistance in PsA patients, with the symmetrical polyarthritis phenotype demonstrating the highest levels of DAPSA score and IR value. This finding allowed rheumatologists to behold this manifestation and could improve PsA patients' long-term outlook.
