Research lines 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. IP: Carmen Pilar Simeón i Aznar, Vicenç Fonollosa Pla Evaluation and characterization of cardiac involvement in patients with Systemic Sclerosis. Cardiac involvement is one of the most serious internal organ involvements and the leading cause of death in SSc patients. The prevalence is 14% by clinical observation and even higher by autopsy Many SSc patients with cardiac involvement are asymptomatic or underdiagnosed. The condition may progress silently to overt clinical manifestations, including systolic and/or diastolic dysfunction, myocardial ischaemia, myocardial hypertrophy, heart failure, pericardial effusion and arrhythmias. Early detection of cardiac abnormalities is therefore very important. We evaluate cardiac involvement by echocardiography, MR, SPECT, and coronary CT.
