Abstract
We read with great interest the recently published article entitled ‘Heart Rate Recovery Is Impaired in Patients with Psoriasis’ by Sarli et al. [1] . In that very well-presented article, they proposed a relationship between psoriasis and the heart rate recovery index. They concluded that heart rate recovery was lower in patients with psoriasis. Given the prognostic value of this test, patients with psoriasis might be at risk for future cardiovascular events and cardiovascular mortality.
