NCT00005276 | Completed

• 1 other identifier: 1303
• Study Type: observational
• Target: N/A
• Locations: 0 countries
• Sites: N/A

Brief Summary

To test specific hypotheses concerning environmental, occupational, lifestyle, and other risk factors for sarcoidosis. Also, to examine the familial aggregation of sarcoidosis and to test genetic hypotheses concerning its etiology. Finally, to describe the natural history of sarcoidosis, particularly in African-Americans who appear to be disproportionately affected, and to implement a system for storing biological specimens including blood cells, plasma, and serum.

Conditions

Lung Diseases; Sarcoidosis
