About this study

Idiopathic inflammatory myositis (IIM), also known as myositis, are a heterogeneous group of diseases characterized by chronic inflammation of striated muscles and skin, with different clinical manifestations, treatment responses, and prognosis. This project will build a clinical follow-up cohort for idiopathic inflammatory myositis (IIM) centered on Renji Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, to promote the clinical and pathogenesis of this group of diseases.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. High Resolution Computed Tomography of Chest

    High Resolution Computed Tomography of Chest will be used to assess the incidence of interstitial pneumonia.

    Measured: three months

  2. Cutaneous Disease Area and Severity Index

    Cutaneous Disease Area and Severity Index will be used to assess the the severity of the rash.

    Measured: three months

  3. Forced vital capacity

    t refers to the maximum amount of air that cr trying to inhale as quickly as possible.

    Measured: three months

  4. Manual Muscle Testing

    Manual Muscle Testing will be used to assess patients with muscle weakness.

    Measured: three months

  5. Forced expiratory volume in one second

    It refers to the volume of the maximum exhalation exhaled in the first second of the maximum deep inhalation.

    Measured: three months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Serum creatine kinase

    Serum creatine kinase will be used to assess the disease activity in idiopathic inflammatory myopathies.

    Measured: three months

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

High Resolution Computed Tomography of Chest (time frame: three months). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06306547, which also lists 1 linked publication.
