NCT ID NCT05345899
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether people with chronic inflammatory rheumatism (like spondyloarthritis) or lupus who still have pain despite treatment have low vitamin C levels. Researchers will measure vitamin C in the blood and ask about pain, fatigue, and quality of life. The goal is to understand how common vitamin C deficiency is in this group.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If low vitamin C is found to be common in these patients, it could point to a simple way to help manage pain or fatigue.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study that only measures vitamin C levels—it does not test treatment. It may not lead to any change in care.
