Implication
Cross-sectional analysis links hepatic steatosis and cardiac manifestations in adults with psoriasis, indicating obesity drives worse outcomes.
Key Points
- Higher body mass index correlated with adverse cardiac manifestations in psoriasis patients, highlighting risks.
- Cardiac function assessed using transthoracic echocardiography in 255 adults with psoriasis and MASLD.
- Meta-analysis revealed systolic and diastolic function compromised in patients with obesity and diabetes.
- Importance of controlling obesity and diabetes in reducing cardiac risk among individuals with psoriasis noted.
