NCT ID NCT07188688

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 34 times

Summary

This study aims to see if a special ultrasound technique called shear-wave elastography can better detect tendon inflammation in people with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. Researchers will compare this method with standard ultrasound and also look at a protein called SIRT2 in the blood. The goal is to improve diagnosis and understand how tendon problems relate to disease activity. About 57 adults will take part.
