Scleroderma-Specific Autoantibodies and Disease Trajectories in Early Systemic Sclerosis: Insights From a Single-Center Prospective Registry. [PDF]
Objective Early diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis (dcSSc) is associated with substantial disease‐specific mortality. Scleroderma‐specific autoantibodies (SSc‐Ab) may influence disease course, but their prognostic value in very early dcSSc remains unclear.

Differential Item Functioning on the Patient Health Questionnaire 8 by Disease Subtype, Language, Sex, and Age Among People With Systemic Sclerosis: A Scleroderma Patient-Centered Intervention Network Cohort Study. [PDF]
Objective Somatic items used in depression assessments can potentially overlap with symptoms related to physical illness, including systemic sclerosis (SSc). No studies have looked at whether somatic depression items may be influenced by diffuse versus limited SSc disease subtypes, which are associated with varying degrees of symptom presentation.
