The relationship between systemic inflammation and increased left ventricular mass is partly mediated by noncalcified coronary artery disease burden in psoriasis

Objective: Increased left ventricular (LV) mass is an important precursor to heart failure. Inflammation plays an important role in increasing LV mass. However, the contribution of subclinical coronary artery disease (CAD) to the inflammation-LV mass relationship is unknown. In subjects with psorias...
