CONCLUSION: In tofacitinib-treated patients with PsA/PsO, increased ASCVD risk and baseline MetS were associated with higher IRs for MACE and malignancies. Our results support assessing CV risk in patients with PsA/PsO and suggest enhanced cancer monitoring in those with increased ASCVD risk.REGISTRATION CLINICALTRIALSGOV: NCT01877668/NCT01882439/NCT01976364/NCT00678210/NCT01710046/NCT01241591/NCT01186744/NCT01276639/NCT01309737/NCT01163253.PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY: People who have psoriatic arthritis or psoriasis may have more heart-related problems and cancer if they have a higher risk of cardiovascular disease: A study in...

A comprehensive meta-analysis comprising 149 case-control studies to investigate the association between IL-6 gene rs1800795 polymorphism and multiple disease risk
CONCLUSION: This meta-analysis provided strong evidence for the association between IL-6 gene rs1800795 polymorphism and multiple disease risks. The IL-6 gene could be a useful prognostic biomarker for CAD, inflammatory disease, ischemic stroke, and rheumatoid arthritis.PMID:36736866 | DOI:10.1016/j.gene.2023.147234
