Summary

This study looked at how insulin works in the skin of people with plaque psoriasis who are also overweight or have prediabetes. Researchers took small skin samples from both psoriasis patches and healthy skin to measure insulin activity. The goal was to understand if insulin acts differently in psoriasis lesions, which could help explain the link between psoriasis and metabolic conditions.
