The role of C-reactive protein and genetic predisposition in the risk of psoriasis: results from a national prospective cohort
Our results suggest that higher CRP concentration may be associated with higher psoriasis incidence, with a more pronounced association observed in individuals with high PRS for psoriasis. So, clinicians should be aware that the risk of incident psoriasis may increase in general population with high CRP levels and high PRS, so that early investigation and intervention can be initiated.
