Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in patients with chronic plaque psoriasis
Abstract
Background/aims Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and chronic plaque psoriasis are both associated with metabolic syndrome and increased risk of incident cardiovascular disease. We assessed the frequency and characteristics of NAFLD in patients with chronic plaque psoriasis. Methods One hundred and thirty consecutive patients with chronic plaque psoriasis and 260 apparently healthy controls matched for age, sex and body mass index were enrolled. NAFLD was diagnosed by abdominal ultrasound after excluding other secondary causes of chronic liver disease. Results The frequency of NAFLD was remarkably greater in psoriasis patients than in controls (47% vs. 28%; p Conclusions NAFLD is frequent in patients with chronic plaque psoriasis - affecting up to nearly half of these patients - and is strongly associated with psoriasis severity. Early recognition of NAFLD by radiological imaging tests in this group of patients is warranted.

“In part, this association is due to the over-representation of established cardiometabolic risk factors in the psoriatic population [1– 3,20,21], but evidence indicates that psoriasis per se may be an independent risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality [19,22].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
