  • Interstitial lung disease (ILD) may be an underrecognized comorbidity in psoriatic arthritis (PsA).
  • The pooled prevalence of ILD in PsA patients is 3%, with higher prevalence (6%) when using imaging-based diagnostic methods.
  • Smoking significantly increases the risk of ILD in PsA patients (pooled odds ratio 2.94).
  • Standardized diagnostic approaches and increased awareness are needed for better screening and management of ILD in PsA.
