Lichen planus is associated with markers of increased subclinical cardiovascular risk, such as epicardial adipose tissue thickness and plasma atherogenic index.
Are epicardial adipose tissue thickness and plasma atherogenic index increased as markers of subclinical cardiovascular risk in patients with lichen planus?
Lichen planus is associated with markers of increased subclinical cardiovascular risk, highlighting the potential benefit of early cardiometabolic screening in dermatology practice.

The findings support an association between LP and markers of increased subclinical cardiovascular risk rather than established cardiovascular disease. Early recognition and regular screening for cardiometabolic risk factors in dermatology practice, as well as multidisciplinary collaboration with cardiologists, may help prevent long-term cardiovascular complications in patients with LP.
