Hello Fellows:

"Increased Risk of Diabetes Mellitus and Likelihood of Receiving Diabetes Mellitus Treatment in Patients With Psoriasis"  ONLINE FIRST

Objective:  To assess the risk of incident diabetes mellitus (DM) in patients with psoriasis and to evaluate DM treatment patterns among patients with psoriasis and incident DM.

Conclusions:  Our results suggest that psoriasis is an independent risk factor for the development of type 2 DM in a dose-dependent manner, and that patients with severe psoriasis who develop DM are more likely to receive systemic diabetic therapies in comparison with patients with DM but without psoriasis.

CommentsThis interesting paper came out these days in the Achives of Dermatology and can be downloaded for free through the above link. It emphasises the synergistic pathogenic combination of Increased Inflammation with Insulin Resistance not only for the occurrence, but also for the aggravation of type 2 diabetes.

All Best,

Joey
