Popis:	Background/Introduction: Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is a systemic inflammatory disease affecting 15-30% of patients with psoriasis. Patients with PsA present 43% higher risk of cardiovascular disease compared to non-psoriatic patients. However, the probable existence of subclinical myocardial dysfunction in these patients has not been fully elucidated. Purpose Purpose of this study is to evaluate systolic and diastolic myocardial function in asymptomatic patients with PsA and no cardiac comorbidities and to reveal the value of speckle tracking echocardiography in this object. Methods Sixty patients (29 males, mean age 52.55) and 34 healthy controls (18 males, mean age 50.79) participated the study. They were subjected to TTE to evaluate left ventricular systolic function with conventional indexes such as ejection fraction (EF) and with novel indexes such as global longitudinal strain (GLS); diastolic dysfunction was also assessed in both groups. Blood exams were conducted including crp, esr. Severity scales of the disease such as PASI and DAS 28 scores, and the duration of the disease were also recorded. Results Linear regression analysis showed significantly impaired global longitudinal peak systolic strain (GLS) in PsA patients (mean =-19.79, s.d. =4.54) compared to the controls (mean =-23.67, s.d. =3.27). Ejection fraction, on the contrary, did not show any significant difference between the two groups. Left ventricular diastolic function did not present significant difference between the two groups. Comparison of GLS with PASI and DAS 28 scores, disease duration, esr and crp showed no association. Conclusions PsA patients present a higher risk of left ventricular systolic dysfunction. GLS is a useful tool in revealing myocardial impairment. Moreover, this high risk for systolic dysfunction did not appear to correlate with disease severity markers.
