EULAR Study Group on Microcirculation in Rheumatic Diseases (SG MC/RD) V. Smith*1, A. Herrick2, A. Sulli3 and M. Cutolo3 1Ghent University Hospital, University of Ghent, Belgium, 2University of Manchester, United Kingdom, 3University of Genova, Italy Summary of last year’s activity Projects with publication (2016) SG MC/RD 1: As standardisation of techniques to evaluate the microcirculation is one of the aims of the study group, a first activity was a multicentre study to assess the reliability of simple capillaroscopic definitions to evaluate morphologies of single capillaries. This study consisted of three parts (namely evaluation of study images by experts, evaluation of study images by novices at the 6th EULAR course on capillaroscopy in Genova, September 2014 and thirdly by participants at a training course at the Ghent University, Belgium, November 2014) and resulted in a manuscript: Smith V. et al. An EULAR Study Group on reliability of simple capillaroscopic definitions to describe capillary morphology in rheumatic diseases. Rheumatology. 2016;55(5):883-890. The study group first convened at EULAR 2014 consisting of 12 founding members (Chair: Prof. V. Smith; Co-Chairs: Prof. A. Herrick, Prof. M. Cutolo, Prof. A. Sulli and other founding members: Prof. Y. Allanore, Prof. O. Distler, Prof. N. Damjanov, Prof. U. Müller-Ladner, Dr. W. Hermann, Prof. I. Murat, Dr. V. Riccieri and Prof. AE. Voskuyl) and 28 in members (from which 11 of 5 non-European countries: USA, Brasil, South Africa, Turkey and Japan). Anno 2016 the number of members has risen to 56 (out of which 17 from 8 non-European countries).

EULAR London JUNE 2016: lectures: - "Differential diagnosis between primary and secondary Raynaud’s phenomenon” and “How to differentiate normal from abnormal capillaroscopic patterns: role in early diagnosis”. EULAR 2016: EULAR SG MC/RD meeting. ACR 2016: EULAR SG MC/RD meeting at ACR. ACR 2016: ACR Study Group on Capillaroscopy. SG MC/RD 2: Secondly, the evaluation of interrater reliability of microcirculatory flow evaluation (Laser Speckle Contrast Analysis) was piloted by two of the founding members and has been published: Lambrecht V. et al. Reliability of the quantitative assessment of peripheral blood perfusion by laser speckle contrast analysis in a systemic sclerosis cohort. Ann Rheum Dis. 2016;75(6):1263-1264. SG MC/RD 3: Thirdly, a cross-sectional, international SUrvey on non-iNvaSive tecHniques to assess the mIcrocirculation in patients with RayNaud’s phEnomenon (SUNSHINE survey) has been performed in between 471 eligible physicians between October and December 2015 (submitted as a manuscript) Ongoing projects SGMC/RD 4=>9 (see EULAR website) Corresponding address: vanessa.smith@ugent.be Why a Study group on Microcirculation in Rheumatic Diseases ? The EULAR Study Group on Micro-Circulation in Rheumatic Diseases (SG MC/RD) aims to build an international network of expert centres and individuals to exchange knowledge within Europe and provide a platform on which the investigators can: 1. Study (micro)vascular mechanisms involved in the progression of rheumatic musculoskeletal diseases (RMD) with (micro)vascular involvement. 2. Develop natural history investigations operating across existing cohorts of European centres interested in the cooperation and implementation of diagnostic tools on microcirculation. 3. Identify through statistical analysis (based on large samples), models based on (micro)vascular assessment tools to predict disease progression and outcome. 4. Evaluate the microvascular effects of novel target strategies within specific RMD populations Who we are? The EULAR Study Group on Microcirculation in Rheumatic Diseases was accepted by the EULAR Executive Committee in March 2014 and actually is being supervised by EULAR Committee on Investigative Rheumatology, currently chaired by Prof. X. Mariette.
