About the VHIR
Here at the Vall d'Hebron Research Institute (VHIR) we promote biomedical research, innovation and teaching. Over 1,800 people are seeking to understand diseases today so the treatment can be improved tomorrow.
Research
We are working to understand diseases, to find out how they operate and to create better treatments for patients. Get to know about our groups and their lines of research.
People
People are the centre of the Vall d'Hebron Research Institute (VHIR). This is why we are bound by the principles of freedom of research, gender equality and professional attitudes that HRS4R promotes.
Clinical trials
Our work is not just basic or translational; we are leaders in clinical research. Enter and find about the clinical trials we are conducting and why we are a world reference in this field.
Progress
Our aim is to make the research carried out at the Vall d’Hebron Research Institute (VHIR) a driving force for transformation. How? By identifying new channels and solutions for the promotion of people's health and well-being.
Core facilities
We offer specialist support for researchers, internal and external alike, ranging from specific services to preparing complete projects. All this, from a perspective of quality and speed of response.
News
We offer you a gateway for staying up to date on everything going on at the Vall d’Hebron Research Institute (VHIR), from the latest news to future solidarity activities and initiatives that we are organising.
The Systemic Diseases group performs translational research based on at least 300 patients with systemic lupus erytomatosus (SLE), antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), systemic sclerosis, vasculitis, dermatomyitis, Sjörgen syndrome or autoinflammatory syndromes in order to better understand their pathogenesis (both at the immunological and genetic regulation level), study their clinical and biological expression (through the detection of new markers that help characterize each of the autoimmune diseases), study morbimortality (through epidemiological studies) and analyse patients' response to medications. With these goals in mind, we seek to improve the diagnosis, clinical monitoring, and prognosis of our patients.
Antibodies to collagen have been identified in patients with infectious (endocarditis) and inflammatory (rheumatic) valvulopathies. The objective is to assess a possible role of autoantibodies against types I and IV collagen in the valvulopathy of patients with antiphospholipid syndrome and systemic lupus erythematosus.

Anti-p155 antibodies seem to be useful for the diagnosis of paraneoplastic myopathies. We have studied their prevalence and their diagnosis value in a cohort of 137 patients with inflammatory myopathies and we have observed that they have a high negative predictive value. On the other hand, the screening by PET/TC does not contribute much to the conventional screening of cancer in these patients.

In this study we collaborate with the Faculty of Veterinary located at the Barcelona Autonomous University (Dr. Santiago Lavin) along with the Department of Pathology of the University of California (Prof G. Diane Shelton).
The only myositis spontaneous animal model is found in dogs, especially in Collies, and when it accompanies cancer, in Boxers. Several antibodies have been described in dogs but it is not known if they are also found in humans. Alternatively, myositis specific antibodies may be positive or negative in dogs. If human beings and dogs share a common autoimmune response, a new door can be opened to deepen in the etiopathogenia and the species-specificity of these illnesses.
We want to describe the capillaroscopy alterations observed in patients with Raynaud's phenomenon and primary Sjögren’s syndrome. Our main objective is to establish if there is a specific capillaroscopic pattern associated with Sjögren syndrome and if it is related to visceral extraglandular involvement.

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.
It will allow the promotion of research on systemic autoimmune-based diseases that especially affect women of childbearing age and, therefore, can also appear during pregnancy.
