Research Gaps Can we predict who ll develop PsA and can we prevent it? Can we predict who ll develop other comorbidities (cardiac, renal, etc) and can we prevent them? Can we predict who ll respond to which therapy?
Can we predict who ll develop PsA? (Can we treat to prevent joint disease?)

139,948 households were screened and 3426 patients prevalence of psoriasis/psa ranged from 1.4% to 3.3% 79% had psoriasis alone and 21% had PsA 27% (psoriasis) and 53% (PsA ± psoriasis) of patients rated it as severe 45% had not seen a physician in a year;

Subclinical Joint Involvement in Patients With Psoriasis Joint structural damage can occur before the appearance of clinical symptoms of PsA In a study by Offidani and colleagues, which used MRI rather than conventional radiography to assess joint involvement, 68% of patients with psoriasis were found to have 1 or more arthritic signs Appeared before patients experienced clinically evident joint symptoms Joint damage was only detected by X-ray imaging in 32% of these patients Source: Offidani A, et al.
