The aim of this pilot study was to assess peripheral blood perfusion (PBP) by a new technique, the laser speckle contrast analysis (LASCA), in systemic sclerosis (SSc) patients showing different patterns of nailfold microangiopathy. Correlations between LASCA and single laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF) analysis were also checked.

The aim of this study was to identify possible correlations between nailfold microangiopathy severity, finger dermal thickness (DT) and fingertip blood perfusion (FBP) in systemic sclerosis (SSc) patients.

To investigate the effects of the endothelin 1 (ET-1) receptor antagonists (ETRA) macitentan, its active metabolite ACT-132577, and bosentan on myofibroblast activation and extracellular matrix production induced by ET-1 in cultured systemic sclerosis (SSc) and control skin fibroblasts.
