BackgroundPsoriasis is a systemic inflammatory disease and is reportedly associated with adverse cardiovascular risks. Left ventricular (LV) function has not been studied comprehensively in psoriasis. ObjectivesThis study was conducted to study LV mechanics in patients with psoriasis by speckle tracking echocardiography. MethodsThe study population consisted of 40 patients with psoriasis and 35 age- and sex-matched control subjects. Two-dimensional echocardiography images were obtained from LV apical four-chamber (4C), long axis (LAX), and two-chamber (2C) views. Peak longitudinal strain and strain rate were obtained from 4C, LAX, and 2C views. Global strain and strain rate were calculated by averaging data for the three apical views. ResultsPatients with psoriasis had significantly lower meanstandard deviation (SD) 4C (17.1 +/- 1.7 vs. 19.2 +/- 2.3; P<0.01), LAX (16.6 +/- 1.5 vs. 19.5 +/- 2.3; P<0.01), and 2C (16.5 +/- 1.5 vs. 19.4 +/- 2.2; P<0.01) peak longitudinal strain values compared with the control group. Moreover, mean +/- SD LV global strain (16.6 +/- 1.5 vs. 19.9 +/- 2.1; P<0.01) and strain rate (1.39 +/- 0.30 vs. 1.51 +/- 0.20; P<0.01) values were found to be significantly lower in the psoriasis group. In a multiple regression model, global strain was independently associated with high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (=0.29, P=0.04), duration of disease (=0.35, P<0.01), ejection fraction (EF) (=0.38, P=0.01), and the ratio of early diastolic mitral inflow velocity to early diastolic annular velocity (E/E ratio) (=0.34, P=0.02). Also, in a multiple regression model, global strain rate was independently associated with duration of disease (=0.36, P<0.01), EF (=0.32, P=0.01), and E/E ratio (=0.35, P<0.01). ConclusionsUsing 2-D strain imaging, we have demonstrated that patients with psoriasis have lower LV functions.
