Key clinical point: Patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) were more likely to have cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and metabolic syndrome (MS) than patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).
Major finding: MS (odds ratio [OR] 1.54; P = .002) and CVD (OR 6.13; P = .001) were more frequently observed in patients with PsA vs RA.
Study details: Findings are from a cross-sectional study including 197 patients with PsA and 279 patients with RA.
Disclosures: This study was supported by Peking University First Hospital, China, and other sources. The authors declared no conflict of interests.
