PurposeErythrodermic psoriasis (EP) is a severe form of psoriasis that affects multiple organs, including the cardiovascular system. However, few studies have focused on this condition.This study is aimed to assess the prevalence and factors associated with heart failure in EP patient, and to the measure the serum concentrations of fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), a potential predictor of chronic heart failure.MethodsWe retrospectively studied patients with EP hospitalized at Peking Union Medical College Hospital between January 2005 to October 2021. The prevalence of heart failure and associated factors was measured. In addition, peripheral blood samples were collected from 17 patients and matched with samples from eight healthy controls, and their serum concentrations of FGF23 were measured by ELISA.ResultsWe studied 225 patients with EP, with a male: female ratio of 2.7:1 and a mean age of 47.6 ± 16.7 years. Twenty-five (11.1%) participants were diagnosed with heart failure during their hospital stay. The patients with EP and heart failure were older (58.2 years vs. 46.2 years, p = 0.001); had a higher prevalence of a history of coronary heart disease (32.0% vs. 21.5%, p |
