Psoriasis and Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Observational Studies
Open accessAbstract
Background: Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory disease that may be associated with increased risk of cardiovascular events, including cardiovascular mortality, myocardial infarction, and stroke. Methods and Results: We searched the MEDLINE , EMBASE , and C ochrane C entral R egister databases for relevant studies in English between January 1, 1980, and January 1, 2012. Extraction was by 3 independent reviewers. Summary incidence, risk ratios ( RR s), and confidence intervals ( CI s) were calculated using fixed‐effects and random‐effects modeling. Meta‐regression was also performed to identify sources of between‐study variation. Nine studies were included, representing a total of 201 239 patients with mild and 17 415 patients with severe psoriasis. The level of covariate adjustment varied among studies, leading to the possibility of residual confounding. Using the available adjusted effect sizes, mild psoriasis remained associated with a significantly increased risk of myocardial infarction ( RR , 1.29; 95% CI , 1.02 to 1.63) and stroke ( RR , 1.12; 95% CI , 1.08 to 1.16). Severe psoriasis was associated with a significantly increased risk of cardiovascular mortality ( RR , 1.39; 95% CI , 1.11 to 1.74), myocardial infarction ( RR , 1.70; 95% CI , 1.32 to 2.18), and stroke ( RR , 1.56 95% CI , 1.32 to 1.84). Based on these risk ratios and the background population event rates, psoriasis is associated with an estimated excess of 11 500 (95% CI , 1169 to 24 407) major adverse cardiovascular events each year. Conclusions: Mild and severe psoriasis are associated with an increased risk of myocardial infarction and stroke. Severe psoriasis is also associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular mortality. Future studies should include more complete covariate adjustment and characterization of psoriasis severity.

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.
