Psoriatic Arthritis
Definition
 An
inflammatory arthritis
 Associated with psoriasis
 Usually seronegative for
rheumatoid factor
Psoriatic Arthritis Clinical Patterns
 Distal
predominant (Distal interphalangeal joints of fingers and toes).
 Oligo-articular (<5 joints) often in an
asymmetric distribution.
 Poly-articular (5 joints), rheumatoid
arthritis-like.
 Spinal Involvement.
 ‘Arthritis Mutilans’.

Psoriatic arthritis: A distinct entity ?
 Dutch
study found no association
between psoriasis and polyarthritis.
 No association between HLA antigens and
seronegative polyarthritis with psoriasis.
 No radiological features in seronegative
polyarthritis with psoriasis.
– van Romunde LKJ, et al.Rheumatology
International 1984;4:55-73.
?
fortuitous association
– Cats A. Cutis 1990;46:323-329.
Psoriatic arthritis
Epidemiological Evidence
 Prevalence
of psoriasis in the
general population: 0.1-2.8%.
 Prevalence of psoriasis in arthritis
patients: 2.6-7.0%.
 Prevalence of arthritis in the general
population: 2-3%.
 Prevalence of arthritis in psoriatic
patients: 6-42%.
Psoriatic arthritis: A distinct entity !
 Previous
population studies.
 Epidemiological studies.
 Dutch study found DIP joints disease
more common in patients with
seronegative polyarthritis and
psoriasis.
 A distinct form of arthritis, with
different patterns, associated with
psoriasis.

Psoriatic arthritis
Clinical Outcome
PsA is much more serious than previously
recognized.
20% of patients with PsA develop clinical
deformities and damage, resulting in
functional disability.
5 deformities were detected in 55% of
patients after 10 years of follow-up.

Prognostic Indicators in PsA
Clinical Indicators of Progression
 Progression of damage defined by a
change in damage state:
– State 1 = 0 damaged joints
– State 2 = 1-4 damaged joints
– State 3 = 5-9 damaged joints
– State 4 =  10 damaged joints
 Analysis
by model for rate of
transition between damage states.

Outcome in Psoriatic arthritis
Mortality Studies


PsA patients are at an increased risk of
death.
Overall risk is 1.62 that of Ontario
Residents.
» 1.66 for women, 1.59 for men


Causes of Death are similar to general
population.
Risk of death is related to previously
active and severe disease.

Remission in Psoriatic Arthritis




Summary
Remission occurred in 17.6% of our PsA
patients.
Male gender and less active and severe
arthritis at presentation to Clinic were
associated with remission.
Only 6 (8.7%) of the PsA patients
sustained “true remission”,
35 (52%) had subsequent flares.
Gladman DD et al. J Rheumatol 2001;28:1045-8.
Psoriatic Arthritis
Prognostic Factors

Progression of Damage:
 High effusion count at presentation
 High joint count at each visit
 High medication level at presentation
 Low ESR is “protective”

Death:
 Elevated ESR
 High prior medication level
 Radiological Damage

Remission
 Male Gender
 Low joint count at presentation
Psoriatic Arthritis
Not just skin and joints!
An inflammatory arthritis associated with
psoriasis.
 More common than previously thought.
 About one fifth of the patients have a
severe debilitating disease, although
some patients achieve remission.
 Earlier studies suggesting that PsA was a
mild disease included patients with early
disease.
