Primary care‐based screening for cardiovascular risk factors in patients with psoriasis

Cardiovascular risk factor screening of primary care-based adults with psoriasis identified a high proportion of patients (i) at high CVD risk, (ii) with screen-detected risk factors and (iii) with suboptimally managed known risk factors. These findings need to be considered alongside reports that detected limited responses of clinicians to identified risk factors before universal CVD screening can be recommended.
