< BACK Advancing Psoriatic Arthritis: Rheumatologist Ilja Tchetverikov's Insights on iPROLEPSIS May 22, 2024 Exploring Innovative Approaches to Disease Management and Patient Care in Psoriatic Arthritis" Ilja Tchetverikov , a rheumatologist and project partner from the CICERO Foundation (the Netherlands), provides insights into the iPROLEPSIS project's endeavours. He emphasises the need for a deeper understanding of psoriatic arthritis , a chronic inflammatory condition impacting various body parts due to immune system disturbances. I. Tchetverikov highlights the project's focus on investigating disease progression factors and developing non-invasive measurement tools . “Everybody can measure anything, but then you have to know what you're measuring. The whole idea of the project is that we combine two strengths. One of them is providing and developing a technical solution on how to measure the disease activity. And from the other side, we are going to label the data coming in from the system, from the clinical point of view. So we will be able to say whether or not some people have a low or high level of disease activity. So it's one part of the investigation. The other part of the investigation is to see whether other factors, which are already known to influence the whole system of your human body, like stress factors and some, for instance, gut microbiome composition, can also change during the course of the disease and how they are influencing the course of the disease itself,” states Ilja Tchetverikov . Through a collaborative effort integrating clinical expertise and technical innovation, the project aims to assess disease activity levels and explore external factors accurately. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PcUHfHsWSVs iPROLEPSIS interview.png iPROLEPSIS interview.png 1/1 PREVIOUS NEXT

< BACK iPROLEPSIS presented at TeraMed Conference 2026 in Angola Apr 22, 2026 The project and the iPROLEPSIS Games were presented, highlighting their relevance for digital health innovation Filipa Magalhães from Faculdade de Motricidade Humana/ Instituto Superior Técnico presented the iPROLEPSIS project and the iPROLEPSIS Games at the TeraMed Conference 2026 , held on 16 April 2026 in Angola. The conference brought together various stakeholders to discuss the challenges and opportunities of implementing digital solutions in healthcare, particularly in the Angolan context. During the event, Filipa Magalhães presented the iPROLEPSIS project and the iPROLEPSIS Games , highlighting their objectives and innovative approach. Given the limited availability of psoriatic arthritis-related data in Angola and other African countries, she emphasised the project’s potential to support the development of digital health solutions through a gamified approach , especially in regions with one of the youngest populations in the world. The co-creation methodology used in the development of the iPROLEPSIS Games was also showcased as a strong example for developers, reinforcing the importance of involving users from the early stages in order to better address real needs and increase patient engagement. As part of the event, Filipa Magalhães also gave an interview to RTP Africa, where she discussed the complexity of psoriatic arthritis and explained how this led to the creation of different game categories addressing various symptoms within the iPROLEPSIS Games. The interview also highlighted the potential impact of digital health interventions in this area.
