Psoriasis can also affect the joints causing destructive arthritis with significant pain and disability. It is sometimes associated with cardiovascular disease, depression, and obesity. MetroBoston conducts Psoriasis Clinical Trials with the goal of improving plaque psoriasis and improving the quality of life in those with plaque psoriasis.
