Cardiovascular Health in People with Psoriasis: A Population-Based Study in the United States

Psoriasis is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular (CV) risk factors, CV disease, and mortality (Abuabara et al., 2010; Elmets et al., 2019; Gelfand et al., 2006), but many patients with psoriasis do not see primary care regularly (Barbieri et al., 2021) and have undertreated CV risk factors (Takeshita et al., 2015).
