Question

question 48 (mandatory) (1 point)
which arthritic condition is strongly afflicted with nail lesions?
enteropathic
scleroderma
psoriatic
sle

Explanation:

Psoriatic arthritis is strongly associated with nail lesions. Nail changes are a common manifestation in psoriatic arthritis, including pitting, onycholysis (separation of the nail from the nail bed), subungual hyperkeratosis (thickening under the nail), and nail dystrophy. These nail lesions are often seen in conjunction with skin psoriasis and joint inflammation in psoriatic arthritis. Enteropathic arthritis (associated with inflammatory bowel diseases like Crohn's and ulcerative colitis) typically does not have a strong association with nail lesions as a characteristic feature. Scleroderma (systemic sclerosis) mainly affects the skin (hardening and tightening) and internal organs, and while there can be vascular changes in the fingers (Raynaud's phenomenon which might secondarily affect nails to some extent but not as a hallmark like in psoriatic arthritis). SLE (systemic lupus erythematosus) can have various manifestations like malar rash, joint pain, serositis, etc., but nail lesions are not a prominent and strongly associated feature compared to psoriatic arthritis.

Answer:

psoriatic
