ABSTRACT Background Psoriasis is a chronic immune‐mediated inflammatory disease with a global prevalence of 2%–3% and 1.3% in Brazil. It is associated with comorbidities such as obesity, hypertension, and diabetes, all of which contribute to increased cardiovascular risk due to systemic inflammation and endothelial dysfunction.

Research progress of improving subclinical atherosclerosis with exercise
Atherosclerosis is the main cause of cardiovascular diseases, while Carotid intima-media thickness is a biomarker of subclinical atherosclerosis. Numerous studies have confirmed that exercise can slow down or even reverse the formation and progression of

Femoral Artery Atherosclerosis Is Associated With Physical Function Across the Spectrum of the Ankle-Brachial Index: The San Diego Population Study. [PDF]
BackgroundThe ankle-brachial index (ABI) is inadequate to detect early-stage atherosclerotic disease, when interventions to prevent functional decline may be the most effective.

Carotid-Wall Intima–Media Thickness and Cardiovascular Events [PDF]
Intima-media thickness of the walls of the common carotid artery and internal carotid artery may add to the Framingham risk score for predicting cardiovascular events.We measured the mean intima-media thickness of the common carotid artery and the maximum intima-media thickness of the internal carotid artery in 2965 members of the Framingham Offspring ...

GCKR gene functional variants in type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome: do the rare variants associate with increased carotid intima-media thickness? [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Recent studies revealed that glucokinase regulatory protein (GCKR) variants (rs780094 and rs1260326) are associated with serum triglycerides and plasma glucose levels.
