We studied the impact of hypertension along with traditional and new cardiovascular risk factors on the structural and functional properties of arteries in psoriatic arthritis (PsA) patients. We examined 42 PsA subjects (aged 51±9 years) stratified according to hypertensive status (19 normotensive, PsA-NT and 23 hypertensives, PsA-HT). Thirty-eight normotensive subjects (C-NT) and 23 hypertensives (C-HT) comparable by age and sex served as controls. Mean carotid intima-media thickness (mean-IMT) and mean of the maximum IMT (M-Max) were evaluated by ultrasound in carotid artery segment bilaterally. Post-occlusion flow-mediated dilation (FMD) of the brachial artery was evaluated by ultrasonography.
