Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Changes if nailfold capillaries will be observed via capillaroscope in normal people and will be seen according to the following parameters Dilated/Giant capillaries Neoangiogenesis/bushy capillaries Meandering capillaries Tortuous capillaries Avascular zones Haemorrhages Capillaries Visibility of the subpapillar venous plexusTimepoint: Once

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To assess the baseline parameters in nailfold capillaroscopy so that the normal and abnormal change in NFC can be differentiated and its association with the other disease can be made. Standardised common different in both sex and age group Timepoint: Once
