Thirty-six patients with SSc were included in the study: 30 patients had limited SSc, 5 patients had diffuse SSc, and 1 patient had an overlap syndrome. Of these 36 patients, 30 were women and 6 were men (mean [SD] age, 56 [14]years). The severity of the Raynaud phenomenon (RP), the presence of digital ulcers, and skin scores at the fingers and feet were assessed. Nail fold capillaroscopy was performed with a videocapillaroscope (Videocap 3.0; DS Medica).
