Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Infra clinical infringements of the entheses1 yearMeasurement of the thickness in millimeters (mm) in anteroposterior diameter of each entheses (quadricipatal tendon, calcaneal tendon and plantar aponeurosis)
Infra clinical infringements of the nails1 yearMeasurement mm of the nail plate and matrix of the nail. It will be evaluate by using power Doppler the vascularisation in 3 grades of the nail ( grade 0=normal, grade 1=moderate vascularisation , grade 3:= abnormal vascularisation)
