Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed immune-related cytokines and chemokines to see if they can predict disease activity in patients with localized scleroderma (LS).
- Researchers collected 194 serum samples from 45 LS patients with different forms of the disease, finding that certain cytokines like IP-10 and TNF-α were significantly elevated during active disease states.
- The analysis identified IP-10, TNF-α, and MCP-1 as reliable predictors of active disease, which could help in making clinical decisions when evaluating disease activity is difficult.
