Featured Award Recipient
Evaluating the Impact of Sleep on Psoriasis and Associated Comorbidities
Sleep impairment is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease and metabolic disorders. Research shows that psoriasis patients are more likely to report sleep disturbance compared to people without psoriasis. This proposal aims to objectively measure sleep disturbance in psoriasis patients, describe differences in sleep patterns between psoriasis patients and controls, and determine whether sleep is a modifier for the development of psoriasis-associated cardiometabolic comorbidities.
