Endothelial Dysfunction in Children with Juvenile Psoriatic Arthritis.

CONCLUSION: Study is the only one addressing endothelial dysfunction development in Slovak children with psoriatic arthritides. We state that endothelial dysfunction is present in these patients even during childhood and in the absence of classic cardiovascular risk factors. Its development seems to be related to an early disease onset as well as to the increased disease activity and disability. Potential genetic predictors have also been identified.
