To describe the clinical characteristics of Chinese patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) using the data recorded in the Chinese Registry of Psoriatic Arthritis (CREPAR). This is a cross-sectional study based on the CREPAR registry, which is a prospective registry founded in December 2018. Data regarding clinical characteristics and treatment of patients were collected during every visit. Data recorded at enrollment were extracted, analyzed, and compared with data in other registries or cohorts. A total of 1074 patients were registered from December 2018 to June 2021. Of these, 929 (86.5%) patients had a history of peripheral arthritis, and 844 patients (78.6%) had peripheral arthritis at enrollment, of which polyarthritis is the most common subtype. Axial involvement was present in 39.9% of patients, and 50 (4.7%) patients had axial involvement only. More than half of the patients (55.4%) had at least two musculoskeletal presentations at enrollment. The prevalence of low disease activity and remission according to DAPSA were 26.4% and 6.8%, respectively. Conventional synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (csDMARDs) and biological DMARDs were used in 64.9% and 29.1% of patients, respectively. Among patients with different musculoskeletal presentations, patients with dactylitis had the highest proportion of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory and csDMARD use. The proportion of patients receiving bDMARDs was highest in axial PsA. The CREPAR registry has provided information on Chinese patients with PsA. Compared with data in other registries or cohorts, the disease activity of patients in CREPAR was higher, and the proportion of bDMARD use was lower.
