Despite this, CV risk factors in this population are frequently underdiagnosed and undertreated. This consensus document, developed by the Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis Clinics Multicenter Advancement Network (PPACMAN), provides practical recommendations for dermatologists, rheumatologists, and primary care physicians to improve CV risk assessment and management in PsO and PsA. Key recommendations include conducting baseline CV risk assessments at diagnosis-particularly for patients with moderate-to-severe PsO, PsA, or those requiring biologic therapy-and routine screening for hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, smoking, obesity, and metabolic syndrome. The use of biomarkers such as high-sensitivity C-reactive protein and lipoprotein(a) may help refine risk stratification. Patients at elevated risk should be referred to their primary care provider or a cardiologist for further evaluation and may require additional imaging, including coronary artery calcium scoring. Lifestyle counseling on diet, exercise, weight management, and smoking cessation is essential. Pharmacologic strategies, such as earlier initiation of statins and consideration of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists, are encouraged when clinically appropriate. Systemic inflammation should be reduced using anti-inflammatory therapies, although outcome data remain mixed. Clinicians must carefully assess the risks and benefits of NSAIDs, corticosteroids, and Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors.
