Significance of Capillaroscopy in Raynaud's phenomenon and scleroderma.

We want to describe the capillaroscopy alterations observed in patients with Raynaud's phenomenon and scleroderma. Our main objective is to establish the different patterns that may be related to visceral involvement and to the prognosis in the early stages of the disease.

Protein expression of small collagenase 3 and leucine-rich proteoglycans in cutaneous tissue of patients with diffuse scleroderma.

This study, carried out along with researchers from the Hospital del Mar and from the "Institut Municipal d'Investigació Mèdica", aims at correlating the expression of SLRPs and MMP-13 with the severity of cutaneous involvement, hand dysfunctional capacity, capillaroscopy patterns, and cutaneous ultrasonography of patients affected with diffuse scleroderma in different evolutive stages of the disease.

15 researchers from the Rheumatology, Systemic Diseases and the Physiology and Pathophysiology of the Digestive Tract groups gave around 25 presentations.

The new technology allows more sensitive detection of scleroderma patients' autoantibodies, which are related to the severity and progression of the disease.

Researchers have used an innovative protocol to identify people with this autoimmune disease who have a higher risk of cancer.
