NCT04478409
Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is the most common auto-inflammatory disease (prevalence: 1-5 / 10,000 inhabitants). It is caused by mutations in the MEFV gene, which encodes variants of the Pyrine inflammasome. Inflammasomes are protein complexes of the innate immunity that produce pro-inflammatory cytokines (interleukin-1β). In vitro, our preliminary results demonstrated that the activation of the inflammatory pyrine (measured by the concentration of interleukin-1β) by kinase inhibitors is significantly increased in FMF patients compared to healthy subjects. Furthermore, a measurement of cell death gave significant results in differentiating the patients from the controls. The performance of this functional has been tested, fast and simple diagnostic test on common mutations and wish to assess its characteristics for MEFV mutations. The investigators hypothesize that this quick and simple functional test can serve as a diagnostic tool for FMF and can quantitatively discriminate against patients with different mutations (genotypes).

Many homeless Veterans with serious mental illness (SMI) enroll in the VA's Supported Housing (VASH) program but struggle to obtain and sustain housing. Social skills are an important-but underappreciated-determinant of housing outcomes for homeless adults. The investigators hypothesize that homeless Veterans with SMI who participate in a social skills training program, tailored for housing-related social skills, will obtain housing quicker, retain housing longer, and show improved mental health outcomes compared to Veterans with similar needs not participating in such a program.
