Inverse correlation between glutathione peroxidase activity in psoriatic cutaneous lesions and the severity of the disease
Background: Psoriasis is a chronic-relapsing inflammatory skin disorder, in whose pathogenesis oxidative stress is suggested to be involved. Among different enzymes that play a role in maintaining the cellular redox balance, we aimed to assess the alteration of glutathione peroxidase (GPX) activity in cutaneous lesions and its correlation with the disease severity, firstly, to support the possi...

However, more disease activity measures specific to PsA have been developed. This development is appropriate, as the disease is not confined to the joints but has multiple manifestations, in addition to skin and joints. Assessments of disease activity are unique to...
متن کاملMeasuring Disease Activity in Psoriatic Arthritis

متن کاملMinimal disease activity and impact of disease in psoriatic arthritis: a Spanish cross-sectional multicenter study
BACKGROUND Patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) experience functional impairment and reduced quality of life, and thus patient global assessment in PsA is explained mainly by the physical, but also by the psychological, aspect of the disease. To assess the prevalence of minimal disease activity (MDA) in Spanish patients with PsA, we examined their characteristics and the association between ...
متن کاملThe Association between Depression and vitamin D level with disease activity in patient with rheumatoid arthritis
Introduction: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic rheumatologic disease, affecting different aspects of patient life. Although several studies have reported a higher rate of depression among patients with RA, there is still controversy over the underlying risk factors and probable covariates of depression in these individuals. The present study investigated the relationship between disease a...
