  1. IQR = Interquartile Range, PASI = Psoriasis Area and Severity Index, DMARD = Disease-Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drug, NSAID = Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug. Data are reported as median (IQR) unless indicated otherwise.
  2. DMARD therapy denotes methotrexate use, except for 1 patient who was taking both methotrexate and hydroxychloroquine. Biologic therapy indicates active TNF antagonist or anti-IL-12/23 receptor use except for one patient who was treated with abatacept for psoriatic arthritis.
