This study uses a blood test called mass spectrometry to look at the immune system in people with active autoimmune diseases. It aims to find patterns that could help doctors better understand and treat these conditions.
This study looks at how people with rheumatic diseases (like arthritis or lupus) experience pain, by collecting information through questionnaires and simple tests. The goal is to better understand different types of pain to improve treatments.
This study follows different groups of people—from those at high risk of developing rheumatoid arthritis to those recently diagnosed—to learn more about the disease. By joining, you help researchers understand who gets RA and why, which may lead to earlier detection and better care.
This study collects health information from people with adult-onset Still's disease and similar autoinflammatory conditions to better understand these diseases. By joining, you contribute to research that may lead to better care in the future.
This study is looking for biomarkers (biological clues) in people with newly diagnosed or flaring giant cell arteritis (GCA) or polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR). Participating may help researchers find better ways to diagnose and monitor these conditions.
This research study collects samples and information from people with rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, or scleroderma, plus healthy volunteers, to better understand how the immune system works in these conditions. By comparing these groups, researchers hope to find new ways to treat and manage autoimmune diseases.
