Όραμα και μεγιστοποίηση του αντίκτυπου του έ ργου iPROLEPSIS Η πρόβλεψη της μετάβασης από υγιή κατάσταση σε ψωριασική αρθρίτιδα μέσω ανάλυσης δεδομένων από πολλαπλές πηγές με χρήση ενός νέου εξατομικευμένου ψηφιακού οικοσυστήματος φροντίδας και τη μεγιστοποίηση του αντίκτυπου με το άνοιγμα, την ορατότητα, τη δικτύωση και την επαναχρησιμοποίηση των παραγόμενων προϊόντων. Όραμα του έργου Ανάλυση δεδομένων, στόχοι του έργου, τεχνολογίες IoT και εφαρμογή κινητών συσκευών. Σχετικά με την Ψωριασική Αρθρίτιδα Η ψωριασική αρθρίτιδα (ΨΑ) είναι μια χρόνια, φλεγμονώδης νόσος, που προσβάλλει τον σκελετό των άκρων και του κορμού, με σοβαρές επιπτώσεις στην ποιότητα ζωής των ασθενών. Υπολογίζεται ότι το 1-2% του γενικού πληθυσμού πάσχει από ψωριασική αρθρίτιδα, δηλαδή 5 έως 10 εκατομμύρια άνθρωποι στην ΕΕ επηρεάζονται. Η ψωριασική αρθρίτιδα σχετίζεται με την ψωρίαση. Εως και το 30% των ατόμων που ζουν με ψωρίαση, δηλαδή τουλάχιστον 100 εκατομμύρια άνθρωποι παγκοσμίως (WHO), αναμένεται να εκδηλώσουν την ασθένεια. Ο στόχος Ο στόχος του iPROLEPSIS είναι να προτείνει ένα νέο οικοσύστημα που περιλαμβάνει μηχανισμούς συλλογής δεδομένων πραγματικού κόσμου (real-world data, RWD) και ένα ισχυρό σύστημα υποστήριξης αποφάσεων για την παροχή νέας γνώσης για τους βασικούς παράγοντες που επηρεάζουν τη μετάβαση από υγιή κατάσταση σε ψωριασική αρθρίτιδα, υιοθετώντας μια πολλαπλής κλίμακας και πολυπαραγοντική προσέγγιση, ώστε, σε συνδυασμό πρακτικών επεξηγηματικής τεχνητής νοημοσύνης (explainable AI, xAI), να προσφέρουμε ένα αποτελεσματικό, αποδοτικό και κλινικά επικυρωμένο εξατομικευμένο οικοσύστημα ψηφιακής φροντίδας για ασθενείς με ψωριασική αρθρίτιδα. Τεχνολογίες Τεχνολογίες αισθητήρων IoT (Internet of Things) και μια εφαρμογή για κινητές συσκευές θα βρίσκονται στο επίκεντρο της διαδικασίας συλλογής δεδομένων πραγματικού κόσμου (real-world data, RWD), ενώ δεδομένα αναδρομικών και προοπτικών μελετών θα συλλεχθούν από τις βάσεις δεδομένων των κλινικών συνεργατών και θα συνδυαστούν με αντίστοιχα δεδομένα ανοιχτής πρόσβασης. Μέσω της ανάλυσης και της οπτικοποίησης αυτών των δεδομένων χρησιμοποιώντας μοντέλα τεχνητής νοημοσύνης και ένα εργαλείο οπτικής ανάλυσης, αντίστοιχα, το iPROLEPSIS θα μπορεί να προτείνει εξατομικευμένες συμβουλές αναφορικα με τη διατροφή, τη σωματική δραστηριότητα και τη διαχείριση του στρες, της κούρασης και του πόνου, με απώτερο σκοπό την υποστήριξη γιατρών, φροντιστών, και νοσοκομείων για την βέλτριστη διαχείριση της ψωριασική αρθρίτιδας. Τέλος, μέσω τεχνικών xAI, το iPROLEPSIS στοχεύει να διευκολύνει τα νοσοκομεία και τους υπεύθυνους χάραξης πολιτικής στην απόκτηση νέων γνώσεων για καλύτερες κλινικές πρακτικές, διαμορφώνοντας έτσι μελλοντικές πολιτικές θεραπείας PsA.

Psoriatic arthritis is a type of arthritis linked with psoriasis, a chronic skin and nail disease. Psoriasis causes red, scaly rashes and thick, pitted fingernails. Psoriatic arthritis is characterized by joint swelling (inflammation), pain and stiffness and can affect any peripheral joint such as fingers, toes, knees and/or spine. It also affects the insertion of tendons or ligaments in bones (enthesitis). Between 20-40% of people with the skin condition psoriasis will develop psoriatic arthritis. Symptoms affecting their joints tend to develop 5 to 10 years after psoriasis is diagnosed but it can occur at any time. Currently, it is not clear why some people with psoriasis develop psoriatic arthritis while others do not. The arthritis of psoriatic arthritis comes in three forms: oligoarticular arthritis that affects four or less peripheral joints (e.g., joints in the fingers, toes, knees); polyarticular arthritis that involves five or more peripheral joints on both sides of the body; and axial arthritis that affects the joints of the spine including the sacroiliac joint (where the spine connects to the pelvis). Some people may develop psoriasis after or at the same time as symptoms of psoriatic arthritis present themselves (4). In rare cases, people may have psoriatic arthritis and never have any noticeable symptoms of psoriasis. Psoriatic arthritis and psoriasis are chronic inflammatory conditions that are caused by a fault in the immune system. Our immune system protects us from infection and illness.
