ECCES: COVID-19 and Chilblains
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Chilblains (inflammatory lesion of the feet or hands) have been reported with an unusual frequency during the confinement period, most commonly in children, teenagers and young adults. The aim of the ECCES study is to find out whether these manifestations of chilblains can be linked to the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus.
For this, an epidemiologic study will compare two types of family (or more precisely people who were confined together in March-April-May):
-
"case family" in which at least one of the members had chilblains
-
"comparator family" in which none of the members had chilblains Environment (home lockdown) of the two types of family will be analyzed. Each member of the "family" will be suggested doing a serological test.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Level of viral exposure in "case family" compared to "comparator family" [Through study completion, an average of 3 months]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Comparison of seropositivity rates in subjects with chilblains and their age-matched controls [Through study completion, an average of 3 months]
- Comparison of SARS-CoV-2 seropositivity rates among members of case (subject with chilblains) and control (subject without chilblains) outbreaks [Through study completion, an average of 3 months]
- Antibody avidity and differentiated IgG and IgM assay by subject in the homes [Through study completion, an average of 3 months]
