Patient-centred perspectives: empowerment, engagement and the future of cardiovascular disease prevention in psoriasis
This Patient Perspective highlights the lived experiences of individuals with psoriasis regarding cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk and prevention. Drawing on national survey responses and user feedback from the TEXTME PSO trial, it reveals low awareness of the psoriasis–CVD link but high receptiveness to education, screening and digital support. The findings underscore the need for holistic, patient-centred care that integrates CVD prevention into routine dermatology practice.
