    Author: Dorwart BB, Gall EP, Schumacher HR, Krauser RE.
    Journal: Arthritis Rheum; 1978 Jun; 21(5):513-5. PubMed ID: 96841.
    Abstract:
    Chrysotherapy was given to 14 patients with refractory psoriatic polyarthritis and to a comparable group of 42 patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The psoriatic patients had a higher rate of remission on gold and less severe toxicity than the rheumatoid arthritis patients. Psoriatic skin lesions were not affected by chrysotherapy.
