3. Figure 2
Kaplan-Meier failure curves with development of psoriatic arthritis (PsA) as outcome. Here, it can be seen that study follow-up was up to 25 years, and that a greater proportion of individuals developed PsA in the MDD group (black) compared with the no-MDD group (dotted gray). Beyond 15 years of follow-up time, there were few patients remaining in observation in the MDD group (median time to PsA from MDD diagnosis of 2.9 years), and few developing the PsA outcome. MDD, major depressive disorder.
