BACKGROUND: There are limited data about the role of nailfold capillaroscopy in @entity625 . OBJECTIVES: To study the role of capillaroscopy in inflammatory @entity309 ( @entity309 ), @entity5144 ( @entity5144 ) and @entity625 . METHODS: @entity1 from the following groups were included in the study: 62 @entity1 with @entity309 ; 34 @entity1 with @entity5144 with involvement of the joints of the hands; 9 @entity1 with @entity625 . Nailfold capillaroscopy was performed with videocapillaroscope. RESULTS: @entity2407 ( @entity2407 ) was found in 30.6% (19/62) of @entity309 @entity1 , in 32.4% (11/34) of @entity5144 @entity1 and 44.4%, (4/9) of cases with @entity625 . The most frequent found capillaroscopic changes in @entity309 @entity1 were presence of elongated capillaries in 58% of cases (36/62) and prominent subpapillary plexus in 69% (43/62). Dilated capillaries were found in 78.9% (15/19) of @entity1 with secondary @entity2407 and in 62.8% (27/43) of those without @entity2407 . " @entity2631 -like" capillaroscopic pattern was observed with low frequency in @entity309 @entity1 (14.5%/9/62). " @entity2631 -like" capillaroscopic pattern was also found in 11.1% (1/9) in the group of @entity1 with @entity625 . The low frequency of the last type of capillaroscopic pattern in @entity309 requires @entity1 with such changes to be observed during regular follow-up for the development of systemic @entity627 different from @entity625 . In @entity1 with @entity5144 capillaries with specific morphology (tight terminal convolutions) were found in 58.8% (20/34) of cases. CONCLUSIONS: Results from the present study confirm the necessity for inclusion of the nailfold capillaroscopy in the diagnostic algorithm in @entity1 with @entity625 .
