Core Tip	Emerging evidence indicates an intricate link between psoriasis and atrial fibrillation (AF) with a heightened risk of AF amongst psoriatic patients compared to general population. Although the exact mechanisms remain elusive, the role of chronic systemic inflammation is central to the pathogenesis of AF in psoriasis. By examining the interplay of systemic inflammation, electrophysiological changes, and clinical outcomes, this review aims to advance understanding of the psoriasis-AF link and guide strategies for early detection, prevention, and management of AF in psoriasis patients.
