Laboratory Findings
- There are no specific laboratory findings associated with psoriatic arthritis and most the tests are non-specific.
- However, there are certain laboratory tests that can check for markers of inflammation and to exclude other diseases. These include:[1]
- CBC with differential count
- Elevated ESR
- Elevated CRP (C- reactive protein)
- Autoantibodies: The following autoantibodies may be found in patients with psoriatic arthritis.[2]
- Rheumatoid factor
- ANA (Antinuclear antibodies)
- Anti-citrullinated peptide antibodies (ACPA)
- Genetic markers:[3][4]
- Synovial fluid analysis: Elevated WBC count suggestive of inflammation.
Imaging Findings
- X-ray of digits:[5][6][7]
- Bone destructive changes including formation of subchondral cyst and erosions
- Fluffy periostitis
- Ankylosis
- Phalangeal tuft acroosteolysis
- New bone formation: Perisoteal and endosteal bone formation may result in increased bone density of an entire phalanx resulting in so called ivory phalanx.
- Pencil-in-cup deformity (osteolytic lesions) usually involving DIP joints but also affects PIP joints
- Osteolysis and ankylosis both coexists in the same joints of hands and foot
- Enthesitis
- Dactylitis (sausage digit)
- Gross finger deformity
- Arthritis mutilans: It may lead to "telescoping of fingers" caused by marked bony resorption and the subsequent collapse of soft tissue
- Asymmetrical sacroiliitis
- Spondylitis: Asymmetric paravertebral ossifications and relative sparing of the facet joints
- MRI:
Other Diagnostic Studies
- Bone mineral density (BMD) testing: Bone density may decreased in psoriatic arthritis resulting in osteoporosis and increased risk for fractures. [8]
Treatment
Medical Therapy
- Medical therapy for psoriatic arthritis is according to the guidelines proposed by
- European League Against Rheumatism (EULAR): Guidelines were first proposed in 2012 and they were updated in 2015.[9][10]
- Group for Research and Assessment of Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis (GRAPPA)[11]
- American College of Rheumatology (ACR)
- National Psoriasis Foundation (NPF)
- American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) Psoriasis Guidelines of Care[12]
- British Society of Rheumatology (BSR)[13]
- Pharmacologic therapy for psoriatic arthritis include, Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), conventional synthetic DMARDs (eg, methotrexate, sulfasalazine, cyclosporin A, leflunomide), biologicDMARDs (eg, TNF inhibitors (etanercept, infliximab, adalimumab, golimumab), phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors (apremilast), interleukin(IL) inhibitors (secukinumab, ixekizumab), abatacept) and intraarticular glucocorticoid injections.
- Peripheral arthritis:
- Mild disease: Nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are the most preferred for the management of mild active psoriatic arthritis.[14][15]
- Preferred regimen (1): Naproxen: 375-500 mg/twice a day
- Preferred regimen (2): Celecoxib: 200 mg/twice a day
- Preferred regimen (4): Nimesulide: 200 and 400 mg/day
- Preferred regimen (3): Ibuprofen: Max dose of up to 2400 mg/day
- Adverese effects of Nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs include increased cardiovascular risk, gastritis, ulcers and low renal clearance.
- Moderate to severe disease: Conventional synthetic disease modifying anti rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) may be considered in patients with moderate to severe active peripheral arthritis. These are also considered in patients who are resistant or not responding to NSAIDs, and local corticosteroid injections.
- Preferred regimen
- Mild disease: Nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are the most preferred for the management of mild active psoriatic arthritis.[14][15]
- Non pharmacologic therapy:
- Exercise
- Weight reduction
- Physical therapy
- Occupational therapy
- Educating the patient about disease course, joint protection and comorbid conditions.
- Orthotics
Surgery
- Surgery is the mainstay of therapy for [disease name].
- [Surgical procedure] in conjunction with [chemotherapy/radiation] is the most common approach to the treatment of [disease name].
- [Surgical procedure] can only be performed for patients with [disease stage] [disease name].
Prevention
- There are no primary preventive measures available for [disease name].
- Effective measures for the primary prevention of [disease name] include [measure1], [measure2], and [measure3].
- Once diagnosed and successfully treated, patients with [disease name] are followed-up every [duration]. Follow-up testing includes [test 1], [test 2], and [test 3].
