Описание: | Psoriasis is a chronic, inflammatory skin condition driven by the immune system, marked by red, scaly plaques that commonly affect the scalp and nails. About 30% of psoriasis patients may develop psoriatic arthritis, especially those with severe psoriasis or lesions on the nails or scalp. Research has identified distinct cytokine gene expression patterns in skin versus synovial tissue, which may explain the differing responses to biologic therapies in these areas. Factors such as genetic predisposition, infections, obesity, and biomechanical stress can trigger disease onset, leading to the release of cytokines that activate both the innate and adaptive immune responses. This immune activation can cause synovitis, enthesitis, erosions, and lesions in both articular cartilage and skin. Given the reviewed literature and evidence that hemoperfusion with Efferon CT can non-specifically adsorb excess cytokines and inflammatory mediators, our research team hypothesizes that cytokine sorption could have beneficial clinical effects for patients with severe and moderate psoriasis. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of anticytokine hemoperfusion using the Efferon CT device for treating these patients. |
