THE RHEUMATOLOGY SPECIMEN BANK

这个子项目是许多研究子项目中的一个 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源。子项目及 研究者（PI）可能从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金， 因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。所列机构为 研究中心，而研究中心不一定是研究者所在的机构。 这个研究组织库的目的是收集、处理和储存样本和临床数据，直到研究人员需要它们来研究风湿性疾病，如系统性红斑狼疮、类风湿性关节炎、硬皮病和其他自身免疫性疾病。 该数据库允许形成一个观察队列。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The purpose of this research tissue bank is to collect, process and store samples and clinical data until researchers need them to do research on rheumatologic diseases, such as systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, scleroderma and other autoimmune diseases. The bank allows for the formation of an observational cohort.
