Abstract

Objectives: Juvenile psoriatic arthritis (JPsA) has varied clinical features that are distinctive to other juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) categories. This study investigates whether such features impact patient-reported and clinical outcomes. // Methods: Children and young people (CYP) were selected if recruited to the Childhood Arthritis Prospective Study, a UK multicentre JIA inception cohort, between January 2001 and March 2018. At diagnosis, patient/parent-reported outcomes (as age-appropriate) included the parental global assessment (10 cm VAS), functional ability (CHAQ), pain (10 cm VAS), health-related quality of life (CHQ psychosocial score), mood/depressive symptoms (MFQ) and parent psychosocial health (GHQ). Three-year outcome trajectories have previously been defined using active joint counts, physician and parent global assessments (PGA, PaGA respectively). Patient-reported outcomes and outcome trajectories were compared in i) CYP with JPsA versus other JIA categories, ii) CYP within JPsA, with and without psoriasis via multivariable linear regression. // Results: There were no significant differences in patient-reported outcomes at diagnosis between CYP with JPsA and non-JPsA. Within JPsA, those with psoriasis had more depressive symptoms (coefficient = 9.8, 95% CI = 0.5–19.0) than those without psoriasis at diagnosis. CYP with JPsA had 2.3 times the odds of persistent high PaGA than other ILAR categories, despite improving joint counts and PGA (95% CI 1.2, 4.6). // Conclusion: CYP with psoriasis at JPsA diagnosis report worse mood, supporting a greater disease impact in those with both skin and joint involvement. Multidisciplinary care with added focus to support wellbeing in children with JPsA plus psoriasis may help improve these outcomes.
