Key clinical point: A diagnosis of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) significantly increased the odds of functional impairment and the prevalence of depressive symptoms in patients with psoriatic disease.
Major finding: A diagnosis of PsA was associated with increased odds of functional impairment in everyday life (odds ratio [OR] 9.56, P = .005) and the presence of moderate-to-severe depressive symptoms (OR 2.69, P = .046).
Study details: Findings are from a cross-sectional study including 300 patients with psoriatic disease, of whom 189 patients had PsA.
Disclosures: This study was partly sponsored by Novartis Pharma GmbH, Germany. Some authors declared receiving speaker honoraria, travel grants, or research funding from or having other ties with various sources, including Novartis. The other authors declared no conflicts of interest.
