Overview
Obesity is increasingly recognized as a key comorbidity in psoriatic disease, with important implications for both psoriasis (PsO) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA). Evidence shows that excess weight not only contributes to systemic inflammation but also worsens disease activity, reduces treatment response, and increases the risk of associated comorbidities such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Despite these links, obesity remains underrecognized and undertreated in patients with psoriatic disease.
This educational activity will explore the complex relationship between obesity, PsO, and PsA.
