Summary

This observational study examines nailfold capillaries — tiny blood vessels at the base of the fingernails — in people with psoriasis. Researchers will use a special microscope to see if these vessels look different depending on how severe the psoriasis is. The goal is to find a simple, non-invasive way to help assess the disease.

If patterns are found, nailfold capillaroscopy could become a simple tool to help assess psoriasis severity or guide treatment.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It may find no clear link between nailfold changes and psoriasis severity.
