Key clinical point: A significant relation was observed between low hemoglobin levels and increased risk for psoriasis in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), indicating that proactive treatment for inflammation might help manage both anemia and psoriasis in patients with CKD.
Major finding: During a mean follow-up period of 6.16±1.02 years, 2.39% of patients with CKD developed psoriasis with cumulative incidence higher in patients with vs without anemia (P less than .0001). The risk for psoriasis was significantly higher in patients with vs without anemia (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.109; P < .0001).
Study details: Findings are from a retrospective cohort study of 576,461 patients with CKD.
Disclosures: This study was supported by a National Research Foundation of Korea grant funded by the Korean government. The authors declare no competing interests.
