The relationship of serum SCUBE ‐1, ‐2 and ‐3 levels with clinical findings and ultrasonographic skin thickness in systemic sclerosis patients

ConclusionIn this study, a correlation was observed between serum SCUBE levels and some clinical and laboratory parameters (FEV1, FVC, PAP, C4, and Duru öz Hand Index) in SSc patients. New clinical studies are needed to better understand the contribution of these molecules in the progression and pathogenesis of SSc.
