We evaluated the effect of biological agents on serum creatinine to total bilirubin ratio in patients with psoriasis.Methods: Serum creatinine and total bilirubin levels of patients were reviewed between June 2018 and October 2023.Results: This study included 302 patients, 143 (47.4%) females and 159 (52.6%) males with a mean age of 49.46 ± 13.82 years. The creatinine to total bilirubin ratio was higher in males than in females (p = 0.028), and in patients with comorbidities compared to those without (p = 0.031). Six months after biological agent treatment, serum total bilirubin levels increased (p = 0.010), while the creatinine to total bilirubin ratio significantly decreased (p = 0.038) in all patients. Serum creatinine to total bilirubin ratio decreased (p = 0.031) in patients who received IL-17 inhibitors after 6 months. Among them, patients treated with ixekizumab showed a statistically significantly decrease in creatinine to total bilirubin ratio (p = 0.015).Conclusion: The decrease in creatinine to total bilirubin ratio after 6 months of treatment was statistically significant only in patients treated with IL-17 inhibitors, particularly ixekizumab. Therefore, we suggest that IL-17 inhibitors may have a protective role against hypertension in patients with psoriasis.","PeriodicalId":8921,"journal":{"name":"Biomarkers","volume":" ","pages":"443-448"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145190646","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This systematic review and meta-analysis aim to elucidate the role of ACTL6A in cancer pathophysiology and its prognostic significance.Methods: A systematic search in PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science was conducted from inception to 31 December 2024, using the keywords 'ACTL6A' and 'Cancer'.
